AUSTIN A day on a boat
with the sun shining a breeze
blowing and the boat gently
rocking in the water sounds
like pure relaxation..
Add a few alcoholic drinks to
the scene though and this
ideal weekend celebration
would come crashing down in a
hurry.
A few hours of small boat
operation can be more stressful
than the same amount of time
spent driving on the highway.

ministrator for the Texas

Weather is a major concern
to boaters. There are many ex-

weather reports.
Local newspapers issue one-
to three-day reports. Radio and
television broadcasts give both
short- and-long range forecasts.

Boat operators tested on spe-

shown a decreasing ability to
deal with obstacles and to con-
trol their vessels in tight ma-
neuvering situations as the
day progressed.
“Consuming alcoholic bever-
ages while boating can make
the situation worse” he said.
“Peripheral vision is reduced
and hearing is made less acute.
Many boat operators who’ve
been drinking don’t feel the
effects so they feel fine until
they hit the dock or some-
thing else.”
Tune into latest weather forecast before boating
If you are planning a day on
the water get the latest fore-
cast and heed the warnings.
Once underway notice if the
wind strengthens and look for
cloud buildup.
Bad weather can occur even
with a fair forecast. Squalls
and thunderstorms can cause a
dangerous situation to those
caught off guard.
If foul weather finds you
have everyone slip into their
life jackets. Reduce speed and
