What You Must Do if Involved in an Accident
An operator involved in a boating accident must:
- Stop his or her vessel immediately at the scene of the accident and...
- Assist anyone injured or in danger from the accident, unless doing so would seriously endanger his or her own vessel or passengers and...
- Give, in writing, his or her name, address, and vessel identification (registration number) to anyone injured and to the owner of any property damaged by the accident.
