DIVER'S
POSITION
It is a good idea to ask local authorities if there are hazardous areas and
how they are marked. Boaters must also recognize the flag designs which
indicate that skin divers are present and
keep well clear of the area.
Watch for swimmers. Swimming areas
may not be marked. Steer clear from the
area and always remain alert.
Navigation markers serve as a means of identifying navigable routes, and
indicate water hazards. Boaters should become familiar with navigation
markers and stay within marked boundaries and clear of hazards.
