Arkansas Boating Practice Exam

Courteous behavior on the boat ramp includes preparing your vessel for launching or for the drive home well away from the ramp. Launching your vessel quickly may cause chaos and create potential hazards for other boaters. Waiting for others to offer assistance is not always necessary and can cause delays for those who are ready to launch their vessel. Testing the engine on the ramp can also cause unnecessary delays and may be seen as inconsiderate to other boaters trying to use the ramp. Therefore, option B is the best choice as it considers the safety and convenience of all boaters on the ramp.
