Boating Safety Tips for July 4th | Duluth News

With Fourth of July crowds hitting the lakes, Minnesota DNR is reminding boaters: safety first, wake awareness, and no booze on board. Wear your life jacket, use the engine cut-off switch, keep distance, put the phone down, and clean your boat to prevent invasive species. Starting July 1st, anyone 12 or older born after June 30, 2000, needs a watercraft operator’s permit. Share the water responsibly — everyone’s part in keeping lakes safe and fun for all.
