America's Boating Channel Urges Use of Engine Cut-Off Devices

RALEIGH, N.C. - May 21, 2020 - PRLog -- The second video in America's Boating Channel's™ Season Four of boating safety and boater education videos, "Engine Cut-Off Devices," will premiere this Friday afternoon May 22 at 4 PM Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) on the internet and through social media.

The new title will debut  on AmericasBoatingChannel.com and America's Boating Channel on YouTube.
