Facts about Consuming Alcohol While Boating
Drunken passengers can easily fall overboard, swim near the propeller, lean over the side, or stand up in small vessels, causing vessels to capsize. Sun, wind, boat and wave action intensify the effects of alcohol. Alcohol greatly increases the effects of cold water shock.
