The Sea Tow Foundation and Freedom Boat Club are partnering to encourage boaters to boat sober. The two organizations are promoting their Sober Skipper Program, in which the individual responsible for piloting the boat for the day is encouraged to wear a yellow “Sober Skipper” wristband.
The two organizations will be distributing the Sober Skipper wristbands to Freedom Boat Club members and their local communities. Wind, vibration, noise and the sun — all staples of a day out on the boat — increase the effects of alcohol. For more information, visit soberskipper.com.
