According to Alabama law, what operators are required to have completed an approved boating course in order to operate a PWC?

  1. Operators over the age of 18

  2. Operators with at least 5 years of experience

  3. Operators who are 12 years of age or older

  4. Operators owning a PWC valued over $1000

The correct answer is: Operators who are 12 years of age or older

In Alabama, all operators who are 12 years of age or older are required to have completed an approved boating course in order to operate a PWC. Option A is incorrect because the age requirement for completing a boating course is specifically 12 years old, not 18. Option B is incorrect because there is no requirement for a specific amount of experience, only completion of an approved course. Option D is incorrect because the value of the PWC does not determine the requirement for completing a boating course.
