.
Use of alcohol or drugs is prohibited while operating a water craft. Alcohol or drug use impairs your judgment and
greatly reduces your ability to react quickly. This carries the same penalty as driving a car if convicted.
Prepare other boat operators. Instruct at least one other person on board in the basics of starting and
operating the outboard, and boat handling, in case the driver becomes disabled or falls overboard. Stop the
engine whenever passengers are boarding, unloading, or are near the back (stern) of the boat. Just shifting
the outboard into neutral is not sufficient. The operator of the boat is responsible by law to maintain a proper
lookout by sight and sound. The operator must have an unobstructed view particularly to the front. Never
operate your boat directly behind a water skier in case the skier loses control and hits the water .Use extreme
caution around any swimmer, diver or persons in the water.
