Boating and Alcohol Don't Mix
As part of my 14 year old daughter's 8th grade health class, they learned boating safety. Their test was to pass the Missouri State Boating licensing exam. If they passed, they were eligible to receive their boating license. In Missouri, if you were born after 1984, you must have a boating license in order to operate a boat on Missouri lakes, rivers and ponds.

The state of Arizona Game and Fish Department is developing an education program aimed at educating the public about the dangers of drinking and boating. They are taking their campaign to the internet, with online videos showing alcohol and boating education. This is an example of one of the spots:

I would have never guessed that half of the boat accidents in the area are caused but drunken sailsmen. I think the states need to run an awareness campaign on this, there are probably other people unaware of the danger of driving a boat while drunk.
