Personal Watercraft Insurance, Beware of the People On Board Your Boat
Watch where people sit to minimize risk of falls overboard or capsizing. More than 50% of boating fatalities are the result of passengers falling overboard or vessels capsizing. Never overload your boat and be sure that passengers never sit in an area that is not meant to be a seat (the gunwale or bow come to mind). Check to make sure that passengers are seated safely before accelerating, and always take turns slowly. Keep an eye on weather conditions; and if it gets stormy or the water is rough, head for shore so you do not get swamped.
