Viewers will also learn how to bring their boats from idle speed to a complete stop within one boat length.

Along with the new video, the USPS DML is adding a related boater education slideshow on Marine Radar as well as several new safe boating images.

The USPS DML is also distributing its “Stopping and Holding” video through popular social media including Facebook and YouTube. All digital media in the library is offered at no charge.

The USPS Digital Media Library is produced under a grant from the Sport Fish Restoration and Boating Trust Fund administered by the US Coast Guard.
