7.Impaired Operation

Drugs and/or alcohol will prevent you from operating your boat safely. This single factor is involved in more marine accidents and deaths than any other. The detrimental effects of alcohol and drugs are increased by the wind, waves and sun, quickly impairing your ability to react properly and promptly in an emergency.

!WARNING

Drugs and/or alcohol impair the operator's ability to control the boat safely.

Death or serious injury can result from improper boat operation.
