Arizona’s large lakes such as Lake Havasu, Lake Powell and Saguaro Lake are popular destinations for recreational boaters, personal watercraft owners, swimmers and fisherman. Unfortunately, accidental collisions do occur and can cause serious injuries to those involved.
Boating accidents are often the result of negligence on the part of the boat operator. Boaters and personal watercraft operators are required to follow certain rules of the road just like those who drive a car.
Reasons for boating accidents may include:
- Operating a boat too fast for conditions
- Operating a boat under the influence of alcohol
- Failing to yield to other watercraft
- Failing to carry required safety equipment
- Defective condition caused by the watercraft manufacturer or the boat owner
