Boating Safety Tips for Spring 2013

As the spring season moves closer and closer, Florida residents grow eager to get their boats off of the docks and into the ocean. Boating in Florida is one of the most popular activities that both residents and visitors enjoy. In fact, the majority of all of the recreational and fishing boats in the country are kept in docks around the state of Florida.

As the weather continues to warm up, boating becomes the most popular thing to do on a sunny weekend in South Florida.
