- Sound Signals
- All vessels are required to have sound producing devices (either a horn or a whistle) and they must use these during times of low visibility or during emergencies
- Navigational Lights
- Vessels must use navigational lights between sunset and sunrise and during periods of low visibility
- Your boat must display the red and green lights at the front and the white light at the back of the boat
- Pollution Regulations
- Do not throw your trash out in the water, throw it in a trash can
- Report any spills of oil or gas
- Marine Sanitation Devices
- If your boat has a bathroom, then the manufacturer had to make sure the sewage is kept in a safe place until you can dump it
The next safe boating post will be on navigation rules so stay tuned!
