I am a new boater myself, and everything was in boating language, and what I did for the most part was simply observe and watch how everyone went about it. I even had the boating info from twra but it looked like everyone did their own thing. For instance in the the buoy for channel markers, pass to left of this one...I wish it would also say for this buoy to be on your right as you pass, because when you see conflicting things on the water, the language should be in beginner terms and verbage that speaks neutrally. But I get nervous out there wondering what this boat going to do versus the last one. I think the flyer suggestion was excellent. Take Care.
