Recreational boating is a favorite pastime in Alabama for families and friends where fishing, exploring marine life or leisurely cruising the waterways can be a relaxing change of pace from hectic daily lives.

However, boating activities can result in serious injuries, property damage and even wrongful death due to the careless or reckless behavior of inexperienced or inattentive operators who use excessive speed or operate the boat while intoxicated or both. Thousands of people are needlessly injured or killed in boating accidents every year throughout the United States due to reckless and careless behaviors. Over 50% of all boating accidents can be attributed to the consumption of alcohol.
