DON'T Make These Common Boating Etiquette MISTAKES | BoatUS

If you're newer to boating or maybe just purchased your first boat, you may be unaware there are some common, but often unspoken, boating etiquette rules for captains and skippers. Some, like watching your wake, should be common sense, especially after taking your boating certification course. Others are just courteous. BoatUS Magazine's Lenny Rudow shares several of these boating etiquette "rules" to help you avoid making them -- and help keep the water a safe and fun place to be.
