Boat insurance: InsureUS floats out five safety tips

Boat insurance is about preparing for the worst. But nothing replaces prevention. InsureUS is just as passionate about safety as they are about finding you a policy. Located in Cypress, TX, the agency lists five boat safety tips that everyone should follow while on the waterways.

Wear life jackets and appropriate clothes

Planning a perfect boat outfit starts with a life jacket. Wear only approved vests that fit correctly. This applies to everyone on board, even children. But personal safety extends head to toe too. Wear slip-proof shoes to prevent injury. And don’t forget sunglasses, UV clothing, and sunscreen.

Check equipment

But having the right gear is so much more than what you wear. In addition to having enough life jackets, check that your emergency supplies are stocked. This includes flares, flashlights, fire extinguishers, and first-aid kits. 

File a float plan

Share your travel itinerary with at least one other person. At a minimum, include where you’re going, who is traveling with you, vehicle information, and any emergency contacts. It’s wise also to list what communication equipment you have onboard in case someone needs to find you.

Stay alert

It’s just common sense. Be aware of other motorists, shallow depths, and debris in the waterways. Throttle down and pass on the operator’s side when approaching swimmers to reduce risk. And, as always, check weather forecasts before departing.

Take a course

Stay prepared by taking a safety class to learn even more tips. This will help you navigate maritime traffic laws, distress signals, and boating signs.
