LET'S TALK BOAT SAFETY
by Three Mile Lake Association
1. What's the most dangerous type of boat on the lake?
The Pontoon Boat. People assume that it is safe because of the rail and enclosed seating area. Yet, when passengers are allowed to sit on the deck outside the rail, on the bow, dangling
their feet, danger lurks ...one slip and it's disaster!
2. What's the safest way to navigate at night?
All lights off except the running lights (red and green lights and the mast light).
Use your docking lights ONLY when docking your boat at night. Driving a boat at night with your docking lights on will blind another boat driver in your path.
3. How do I secure safety for my raft at night?
Put red reflectors on each corner of the raft.
Water movement and residual light will bounce off the reflectors.
4. What's the best way to be safe while fishing at night?
Keep a 360 degree white light on while you are anchored and fishing. Use your running lights only when under way.
