Prevention is the safest approach. We hope that you are
never involved in an emergency situation.
If you are involved in an emergency situation, it is
imperative that you know how to react, in order to protect
the lives in your care.
ASSISTING OTHER BOATERS: All boaters
have an obligation to help other boaters who
are in distress, as long as rendering assistance
does not endanger you, your passengers, or
your boat.
