Safe Boating Tips for Labor Day Weekend on The Lake
PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO YOUR SURROUNDINGS.
Fellow boaters are likely drinking and boating with large groups, so be alert and pay attention to what’s going on around you. Boat defensively and be safe. Some may be traveling at very fast speeds and that’s when things can wrong within seconds, stay on the look out.
TRAVEL AT SAFE SPEEDS.
No wake zones are there for a reason, so pay attention to the signs and obey them. Water Patrol will likely be out and about this weekend and you could get a ticket for disobeying basic water safety rules like this.
IF YOU PLAN TO BOAT AT NIGHT, BOAT ACCORDINGLY.
There are many fireworks displays that will be happening all over the Lake of the Ozarks this weekend. If you plan to boat and see them, make sure your navigation light is on. It’s clearly harder to see at night, so be on extra alert. Keep reading for a list of fireworks displays that will be happening this weekend at the Lake of the Ozarks.
