What is a safety measure every small boat operator should undertake?

Conduct a vote on where to go
Ensure the music system is working
Embed a tracking device on the boat
Tie down gear and maintain a low center of gravity

The correct answer is: Tie down gear and maintain a low center of gravity

Small boat operators should undertake the safety measure of tying down gear and maintaining a low center of gravity for several reasons. First, this helps to prevent any loose items from shifting or causing imbalance while the boat is in motion. Additionally, maintaining a low center of gravity helps to keep the boat stable and reduces the risk of capsizing or taking on water. The other options, such as conducting a vote or ensuring the music system is working, do not directly relate to safety on a small boat and should not be considered as essential safety measures. While embedding a tracking device on the boat may be a useful precaution, it is not a fundamental safety measure that every small boat operator should undertake.
