Personal Watercraft Insurance, Do Not Drink and Boat
It is sad that people still need to be reminded that drinking and boating do not mix. Yet sadly still more than half of boating-related deaths involve the use of alcohol or drugs.
The U.S. Coast Guard conducted a Boating Under the Influence (BUI) study and the results showed that a boat operator is likely to become impaired more quickly than a car driver, drink for drink. A BUI conviction can result in a fine, imprisonment, or both. In addition, some states will revoke your driver’s license if you are apprehended for boating while intoxicated. Never operate or ride a watercraft while under the influence of alcohol or drugs
