If we’ve learned anything over our 20 years of rental experience at Beach Water Sports, it’s that boating is never out of season. If you’re planning a Jupiter family vacation, we can help you find the right boat rental for a wide range of excursions. But before you set sail, it’s important to understand boat safety practices for a fun and safe adventure.
Like driving a car, boating comes with its own rules and regulations. When you rent a boat from Beach Water Sports, we can give you an easy breakdown of local boating laws. In general, it’s good to know:
Whether you rent a pontoon boat, deck boat, or fishing boat, we’ll ensure you have all the information you need to relax on the water.
Life jackets are essential for everyone on board, regardless of swimming ability. Make sure each passenger has a properly fitting life jacket and wears it at all times while on the water. Statistics show that life jackets can greatly reduce the risk of drowning.
Florida weather can be unpredictable, with sudden storms that can impact boating activities. Check the local weather forecast before departure and watch the skies while on the water. If you notice the weather taking a turn for the worse, head back to shore immediately.
While enjoying a few drinks on vacation is tempting, alcohol and boating don’t mix. Alcohol impairs judgment, coordination, and reaction time, significantly increasing the risk of accidents. Stay sober, and designate a responsible captain who can handle the boat safely.
Jupiter’s waters are home to diverse marine life. Keep an eye out for manatees, dolphins, and other sea creatures. Maintain a safe distance and follow local guidelines for wildlife interactions to ensure their safety and yours.
By following these boat safety tips, you’re on your way to an enjoyable and safe boating experience. You can expand your Jupiter adventure with a jet ski, kayak, or SUP (stand-up paddle board) rental from Beach Water Sports. We provide rentals to the Jupiter, West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, and Stuart areas.
