Boating Safety Reminders
07/11/2015

(Nebraska Radio Network)-- Summer is the perfect time to get out on the water in that boat. But, the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission wants you to be safe on the water.

Herb Angell with the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission doesn't believe alcohol had a place anywhere on the boat, but especially not with the person operating the boat.  If you have a blood alcohol content of zero-point-8 or higher, the state of Nebraska considers you drunk.

Angell says boaters need to pay attention to what they are doing, not be distracted by passengers. Also, he says everyone should be wearing a life jacket...adding that with the new designs there's no excuse not to.
