In this second episode of the series, Alex Otte shares one of the key findings from the Boating Under the Influence Report and Dashboard. A gap identified in the research is that of consistent alcohol testing in boating incidents and full reporting on these incidents. The proportion of recreational boating accidents that are alcohol related needs to be statistically determined, and inadequate reporting leaves researchers with an unclear picture of widespread impairment on our nation’s waterways.
