As boaters, we know that being out on the water is good for the soul. In fact, research shared by our friends over at Discover Boating confirms that spending time on the water can make you happier and healthier. Check out our favorite ways you can rely on boating to boost your well-being even during social distancing.

Everyone in the boating community plays an important role in keeping boat ramps, fuel docks and marine service businesses open when we need them most. Following these simple rules will help keep us safe and allow us to continue enjoying the boating lifestyle.

As long as we take precautions at the dock and fuel pump and on the water, boating is an activity that complies with social distancing guidelines. Let’s keep it that way! When you show your support for keeping Florida's boating access open, you’re also showing support for our local and national economies.
