Equally as important, take a moment to make sure your passengers know what equipment is available and where you keep it. This includes things like life jackets, buoys, and flares.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color:#000000\">Drink Responsibly<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000\">Just as you would never drink and drive your car, you should never consume alcohol while behind the wheel of your boat. If you plan to drink on the water, be sure that there is a designated person that will remain sober and is able to drive the boat back to the dock at the end of the day.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color:#000000\">Make Sure You Have the Right Insurance Coverage<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000\">Should an accident occur while on the water, it&rsquo;s vital that you have a boat insurance policy in place. Similar to car insurance, this will help to repair or replace your boat after an accident and may even help cover other damages and injuries caused by the crash.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color:#000000\">Need to Insure Your Boat?
