Boating Safety

Posted 5/24/2018
As we enter into Memorial Day weekend,  there are sure to be many boats out on Lake Burton, Lake Rabun, and Seed Lake.  We hope that everyone observes these basic rules:
  • Operate your boat on the right side of the lake as if you were on a road.
  • Do not operate any watercraft after dark without navigation lights.
  • No Skiing, Tubing, Wakeboard or operating PWC’s after sunset. It is the law!
  • Please be respectful of boat church this weekend, and each weekend until Labor Day. Watch your speed and wake while boat church is in session.
  • All boats should have a Coast Guard Approved Life Jacket for each person on board. Children 12 years of age and under must wear a Coast Guard Approved Life Jacket while the boat is underway. (Swimmies for the little ones do not count unless it has a tag that says “Coast Guard Approved “)
  •  A valid operable fire extinguisher should be on board every boat.
  • Wake boats, Surfboats, and Ski boats: Empty ballast tanks when not towing riders.
  • Be mindful of large wakes and the impact on other boaters as well as docks, boathouses, and shoreline.
  • Remember the Golden Rule!
