What is a safe practice when it comes to sitting while the boat is in motion?

Sitting in the designated seats while the boat is in motion is a fundamental safety practice. These seats are specifically designed to provide stability and support during movement, helping to keep the passengers secure and reducing the risk of injury. Proper seating helps maintain balance and ensures that individuals are less likely to be thrown from their seats due to the boat's movements, waves, or sudden changes in speed or direction.

Standing, leaning out over the edge, or moving around freely can all increase the risk of accidents, as they may lead to loss of balance and a higher chance of falling overboard or being injured during turbulence. By adhering to the practice of sitting in designated seats, passengers contribute to a safer boating experience for everyone on board.
