Quote:
LITTLE ROCK — With a mild winter in the rear-view mirror and a warm spring just around the next turn, Arkansas boaters are already in action on the state's lakes, rivers and streams.
To prevent a fine day on the water from turning into a miserable experience, some simple but important boating requirements must be followed.
All boats with motors over 50 horsepower and all personal watercraft must have a minimum of $50,000 liability insurance before operating on the waters of Arkansas.
For those new to boating or those just wanting to become more familiar with laws and navigation rules, the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission, the U.S. Power Squadron and the U.S. Cost Guard Auxiliary conduct boating education classes. Young motorboat operators and personal watercraft riders need to be aware that boating education is mandatory in Arkansas for anyone born after Dec. 31, 1985.
The courses are free and are given by the AGFC. Dates and places for the courses can be obtained by phoning (501) 223-6377 or (877) 493-6424.
Course dates and locations can also be found on the AGFC website at www.agfc.com
The AGFC also publishes a boating laws guide that all boaters should have on board.For more information, contact Boating Education, Arkansas Game and Fish Commission, 2 Natural Resources Drive, Little Rock, AR 72205.
