Preparing for a safe boating season
As the weather warms up across the country, you may be looking to spend time on the water with immediate family members as a safe way to social distance. While boating can be a good way to enjoy the outdoors as other activities are restricted, you will still need to take precautions.
Some areas of the country have restricted marinas, boat ramps, and fuel docks, while other areas are formally announcing the opening of marinas and boatyards for recreational use. Here are a few resources we’ve compiled that you can use to stay up to date with these rapidly changing guidelines and laws:
