Common Boating Injuries
Just last month was Boating Safety Week where the United States Coast Guard provides assistance to boaters so that they can stay safe. Over the past 6 years nearly 25,000 boating accidents have occurred which has caused over 15,000 people to be injured and over $100,000,000 in property damage. Many of these injuries were the result of unsafe boating habits including not having enough life jackets on board at the time of the accident.
In Rhode Island there are thousands of boating accidents every year and even more than that are unreported. Some of the major causes of boating accidents in Rhode Island are:
- Speeding
- Collisions
- Inexperienced Operators
- Failing To Have A Proper Look Out
- Alcohol Related / Boating Under The Influence

In Rhode Island one of the deadliest things that you can do is to drink and drive whether you are in a car or on a boat. Drinking and boating often leads to collisions which is the most common cause of injuries reported to our Boating Accident Attorney.
