GENERAL INFORMATION
22
Watch for fallen skiers. When using your boat for water skiing or similar
activities, always keep a fallen or downed skier on the operator's side of
the boat while returning to assist the skier. The operator should always
have the downed skier in sight and never back up to the skier or anyone
in the water.
Report accidents. Boat operators are required by law to file a Boating
Accident Report with their state boating law enforcement agency when
their boat is involved in certain boating accidents. A boating accident must
be reported if:
1. There is loss of life or probable loss of life.
2. There is personal injury requiring medical treatment beyond first aid.
3. There is damage to boats or other property where the damage value
exceeds $500.00.
4. There is complete loss of the boat.
IMPORTANT: Local law enforcement agencies will have a complete list
of rules and regulations.
