What Types of Boating Accident Negligence Claims Do We Handle?

There are several scenarios in which negligence can occur in a boat accident, including:

  • Hitting a big wave at an excessive speed
  • Knowingly navigating in severe weather
  • Speeding
  • Lack of safety equipment on board
  • Carelessness and recklessness
  • Overcrowding
  • Boating under the influence
  • Failure to know the rules of boating
  • Sinking or flooding
  • Fire
  • Capsizing

The leading causes of boat accidents are similar to the leading cause of car crashes; speeding, distracted driving, under the influence, and failure to comply with navigational signs and signals. Being under the influence is one of the most common reasons behind a boating accident. Alcohol consumption often can lead to being careless and reckless on the water. The effects of alcohol consumption are more life-threatening when you are in the open water.

The injuries from a boating accident can vary in severity. They can range from anywhere in-between the following:

  • Bone fractures
  • Pulled muscles
  • Burn injuries
  • Brain injuries
  • Back and spine injuries
  • Organ and internal
  • Amputations
