ENJOY YOUR WATER

VEHICLE RESPONSIBLY

●

You share the areas you enjoy when

riding your water vehicle with others and

with nature. So your enjoyment includes a

responsibility to treat these other people

and nature with respect and courtesy.

●

Whenever and wherever you ride, think of

yourself as the guest of those around you.

Remember, for example, that the sound of

your water vehicle may be music to you,

but it could be just noise to others. And

the exciting splash of your wake can

make waves others won’t enjoy. Avoid

riding close to shoreline homes and

waterfowl nesting areas or other wildlife

areas, and keep a respectful distance

from fishermen, other boats, swimmers,

and populated beaches. When travel in

areas like these is unavoidable, ride

slowly and obey all laws.

●

Remember that pollution can be harmful

to the environment. Do not refuel or add

oil where a spill could cause damage to

nature. Remove your water vehicle from

the water and move it away from the

shoreline before refueling. Keep your sur-

roundings pleasant for the people and

wildlife that share the waterways: do not

litter!

●

When you ride responsibly, with respect

and courtesy for others, you help ensure

that our waterways stay open for the

enjoyment of a variety of recreational

opportunities.
