Personal Watercraft Insurance – Filing a Float Plan Could Save Your Life
Every boater should take this to heart and take a few minutes to file a float plan. You can do this without contacting the coast guard or filling out extensive forms. You don’t even necessarily need to pick up the phone. Fitting a float plan means letting someone know where and when you are boating, with whom, and some details regarding your boat. For a long voyage, a detailed float plan form left with a friend or family member may be appropriate, while for an afternoon fishing trip, a note to your spouse with the details of where you can be found and when you will return may be enough. It’s not always easy to share a float plan, but it’s a tool that has saved lives.
