Lane County Sheriff’s Office Marine Patrol is offering free boat inspections! 

The Lane County Sheriff’s Marine Patrol deputies are partnering with Bi-Mart to again offer free boat inspections throughout Lane County to help you get on the water safely!  

Bring your boat to a listed Bi-Mart on the scheduled date and time and a Lane County Sheriff’s Marine Patrol Deputy will inspect your boat for free and help make sure you have everything you need.  

For those non-motorized boats (including paddle boards, kayaks, etc.), be sure to always carry a life jacket, whistle/horn and a waterway access permit.
