A Beach Hazards Statement is issued on days when a significant
number of boats and paddlecraft are expected to be out on the
water and when warm air temperatures may cause people to
underestimate the danger of the cold water. Paddle smart from the
start. Always wear your life jacket. Be aware of wind conditions,
tides, and localized currents.

All boaters and paddlers are highly encouraged to contact the
U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary or U.S. Power Squadrons at
https://cgaux.org/vsc/ to receive a FREE vessel check. This is a
convenient, no consequence way to ensure your vessel is outfitted
with all required safety equipment.  Additionally, please label
your paddlecraft with your contact information (IF FOUND Sticker)
in the event it is found adrift on the water.
