"Stay Safe on the Water: Boating Tips and Reminders"
TL;DR
New York's Brianna's Law requires completion of a boater's safety course for anyone born on or after January 1, 1983, and by 2025, everyone will need it. The 8-hour course can be taken online or in person, and those renting a boat will also need to take an instructional safety course before getting out on the water. Safety is the number one priority on the water, and it's important to assume that not everyone knows the rules of the road.
