Before heading out on the water, make sure all required safety equipment is on board and in good working condition. Just as important, know where it’s stored so you can access it quickly in an emergency.

June’s boating safety theme is all about water sports and rental boat safety.

Before you head out tubing, skiing, or wakeboarding, make sure everyone on board knows the basic hand signals. Clear communication helps keep the fun going and keeps everyone safe on the water.

Review common water sports hand signals before your next ride:

Your time on the water helps shape the future of safer boating.

The Safe Boating Campaign is asking boaters to take a few minutes to share how they boat, what safety habits matter most to them, and where we can do better. Your feedback helps us better understand real boater behavior so we can adjust our outreach, resources, and messaging to meet boaters where they are.

Safe boating works best when it is built together. Share your experience, help strengthen the campaign, and be part of creating safer days on the water for everyone.

Take the 2026 Boating Participation Survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/2026-Boating-Participation-Survey

Bonus: After completing the survey, you will be entered for a chance to win boating swag from the campaign!
