ABYC Mini-tutorials on YouTube Show How To Use WebSTIR
In February, ABYC mailed their members a mini-survey about their services. ABYC has tabulated those responses and developed a better understanding of the memberships’ needs and wants.
One of the key revelations was regarding WebSTIR, the here-to-stay, 24/7 online access to the ABYC Standards, the USCG’s Rules and Regulations for Recreational Craft, the companion USCG compliance guidelines, the EPA Rules and Regulations for Recreational Craft, the ABYC comparison reports and the past ABYC supplements from 2003.
Most comments were extremely positive, but there were those who had not even logged into WebSTIR and were forfeiting their most highly rated member benefit, the ABYC Standards!
To address this and make the ABYC Standards more accessible, John Adey, the ABYC Technical Director and Vice President, has produced a series of mini-tutorials that unravel the mysteries of WebSTIR and may be easily viewed via YouTube. The videos cover login, library, navigation and search functions and, of course, are offered at no charge. You are invited at your convenience to take advantage, as a member benefit, of these illuminating videos and submit your comments. You may use the links below or the duplicate copies located at the Members Only page of the ABYC web site, www.abycinc.org

If you have any questions or need assistance, please contact the ABYC office at 410-990-4460 Monday through Friday 8:00AM till 5:00PM ET or email jramsey@abycinc.org directly.
Based on the experience of the many enthusiastic WebSTIR users, ABYC encourages you to give the online access a test drive. You’ll be glad you did!
