Arkansas Boating Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

What should you not allow anyone to do in a small boat to prevent capsizing?

Use electronic devices

Lean a shoulder beyond the gunwale

When in a small boat, it is important to not lean your shoulder beyond the gunwale (the top edge of the boat's side). This is because it can disrupt the balance of the boat and cause it to capsize. Option A is incorrect because there is no direct link between electronic devices and capsizing. While it is important to not be distracted by electronic devices, they do not directly contribute to capsizing. Option C is also incorrect as wearing life jackets is essential for safety on a boat. Option D is incorrect because eating and drinking while in a small boat do not usually pose a risk of capsizing. However, it is important to properly dispose of any waste to avoid littering and maintain a clean environment.
