Hey neighbor – we wanted to check in.

While butter and beer prices are going up, the cost of ABYC doesn’t have to.
 
We know things have gotten pricier with the Canadian-U.S. exchange rate hovering around 1.40, but we want our northern neighbors to know how much we appreciate you. To make sure your ABYC membership and education remain within easy reach, we’re offering a special 20% discount on all ABYC products—membership renewals, study guides, continuing education courses, certifications—you name it. Simply enter promo code Canada20 at checkout to apply your discount.*
 
Thanks again for partnering with us to keep boating safe. Here’s to another great year ahead!
 
Best regards,
