It is important to always think and be aware of other boaters, just like when you drive a car. It has been said that one of the most important rules to remember when operating a boat is “stay right”. Stay to right side when driving and when encountering another boat.

While that is a good general rule there are many other things that you should know before operating a boat or any other water vessel. The United States Coast Guard has laid out all the navigational rules that you need to know. Take a look at the rules and guidelines below for all the information you need to know.
