Boating, the leisurely activity of traveling by boat  typically refers to the recreational use of boats whether power boats, Sail boats, or larger Yacht, focused on the travel itself, as well as sports activities, such as fishing or waterskiing. Boating is an extremely popular activity, and there are millions of boaters worldwide.
Recreational boats fall into several broad categories, and additional subcategories. Broad categories include dinghies (generally under 16' powered by sail, small engines, or muscle power), paddlesports boats (kayaks, rowing shells, canoes), runabouts (15-25' powerboats with either outboard, sterndrive, or inboard engines), daysailers (14-25' sailboats, frequently with a small auxiliary engine), cruisers (25-65' powerboats with cabins), and cruising and racing sailboats (25-65' sailboats with auxiliary engines). The National Marine Manufacturer's Association ([1]) defines 32 types of boats [2], demonstrating the diversity of boat types and specialization.
The smallest boats and kayaks may simply be carried by hand or by lashing it to the top of an automobile. Most smaller boats are stored at home and carried to the water on boat trailers, where they are floated from launch ramps leading down into the water. Some marinas will also offer electric hoists that can lift a boat from a trailer and swing it into the water (generally less than 6,000#). Larger boats are kept at marinas, which offer a mooring protected from the weather and a variety of support services, such as fuel, equipment and so forth.


A more recent form of storage is rack storage where runabouts are stored in large steel racks, sometimes four or five boats high, and perhaps 25 boats across. These racks are housed in sheds, and large specialized fork trucks are used to lift the boats from the racks and place them in the water. This reduces the amount of space needed for boat storage, and also provides a clean environment in which the boats are housed.

Some marinas will offer dry storage yards, where boats on trailers or dollies are stored on a hard surface. Many yacht clubs will offer a fenced area where boats are conveniently stored near the water, but without the maintenance associated with continual water storage (bottom growth, etc.) Boats in dry storage areas are either ramp-launched or hoisted into the water.

Paddlesports include both flatwater (lakes), swiftwater (rivers), and ocean going types, usually covered-cockpit kayaks.

  • Canoes are popular on lakes and rivers due to their carrying  capacity and efficiency on the water. They are also easy to portage , or  carry overland around obstructions like rapids, or just down to the water  itself.   Kayaks can be found on calm inland waters, whitewater rivers, and  along the coasts in the oceans. Known for their maneuverability and  seaworthiness, kayaks take many shapes depending on their disired use.   Rowing craft are also popular for fishing, as a tender to a larger  vessel, or as a competitive sport.   Rowing shells are extremely long and narrow, and are intended to convert  as much of the rower's muscle power as possible into speed. The ratio of  length of waterline to beam has much importance in marine mechanics and design.   Row  boats or dinghies  are oar powered, and  generally restricted to protected waters. Rowboats are generally heavy  craft compared to other has
    • Sailing can be either  competitive, as in collegiate dinghy racing, or purely recreational as when  sailing on a lake with family or friends.  
      • Small sailboats are commonly made from fiberglass, and will  have wood or aluminum spars, and generally a sloop rig (two sails: a  mainsail and a jib). Racing dinghies tend to be lighter, have more sail  area, and may use a trapeze to allow one or both crewmembers to  suspend themselves over the water for additional stability.   Daysailers tend to be wider across the beam and have greater  accommodation space at the expense of speed.  
      • Cruising sailboats have more width, but performance climbs as  they tend to be much longer starting Length Over All of at least 25 feet  (six metres) re-balancing the dynamic ratio between length of waterline  (aiding speed) and beam width (adding cargo and people space).  

  • Freshwater Fishing Boats account for approximately 1/3 of all  registered boats in the U.S., and most all other types of boats end up  being used for fishing on occasion. The boating  industry  has evolved and developed Freshwater Fishing Boat designs  that are species-specific to allow anglers the greatest  advantage when fishing for walleye, salmon, trout, bass, etcetera, as well  as generic fishing craft. o-Fast boats (specialized towboats in fact)  is designed for activities where a participant is towed behind the boat  such as waterskiing and parasailing.  
  • Variations on the ubiqutous water-ski  include wakeboards , water-skiing , kneeboarding ,   inflatable towables , and wake surfing . To some degree, the  nature of these boating activities has an impact on boat design. Waterski  boats are intended to hold a precise course at an accurate speed with a flat  wake for slalom skiing runs. Wakeboard boats run at slower speeds, and have  various methods including ballast and negative lift foils to force the stern  in the water, thereby creating a large and "jumpable" wake.
    • Saltwater fishing boats vary widely in length and are once again  specialized for various species of fish. Flats boats, for example, are used  in protected, shallow waters, and have shallow draft. Sportfishing boats  range from 25' to 80' or more, and can be powered by large outboard engines  or inboard diesels. Fishing boats in colder climates may have more space  dedicated to cuddy cabins and wheelhouses, while boats in warmer climates  are likely to be entirely open.

      • Cruising boats applies to both power and sailboats, and refers to  trips from local weekend passages to lengthy voyages, and is a lifestyle.  While faster "express cruisers" can be used for multiple day trips, long  voyages generally require a slower displacement boat ( trawler ) with  diesel power and greater stability and efficiency. Cruising sailboats range  from 20' to 70' and more, and have easily managed sailplans to allow  relatively small crews to sail them long distances. Some cruising sailboats  will have two masts (ketch, yawl, or schooner rigs) to further reduce the  size of individual sails and make it possible for a couple to handle larger  boats.
  • Racing and Regatta's are common group  activities in the sub-culture of boaters owning larger (twenty-five foot plus)  small boats and larger Yachts, and are frequently  organized around a Yacht club or Marina organization  
    • Sailboat racing can be done on conventional family sailboats  racing under one of the simpler handicap formulas [4] (PHRF, or  Performance Handicap Rating Formula is one such rule), or can be done on  specialized boats with virtually no accommodation or compromises for  comfort. Racing is generally either one design , where the boats are  close to identical, or handicapped where the boats' finishing times  are adjusted based on their predicted speed potential. Racing is further  broken down into ocean racing, where boats start at one port and race in the  ocean and back to the same port or a new destination, or buoy racing where  boats race around prescribed courses and return to port at night. Several  famous races cross oceans, like the biennial Transpac Race[5] from Los Angeles to Honolulu,  or the Newport-Bermuda Race [6] from Newport, Rhode Island to  Bermuda. Other races actually circumnavigate the globe, like the Volvo Ocean  Race or Vendee Globe race.
Since it's a recreational activity, most boating is done in calm protected waters and during good weather. Even so, conditions can change rapidly, and a small vessel can get into life-threatening difficulties. It is important to keep an inventory of safety gear onboard every boat, which is prescribed by the U.S. Coast Guard as well as state boating law administrators in the U.S. Depending on the size of the boat and how it's powered, required equipment may include:
  • personal flotation devices (PFDs or life jackets) for everyone on board   a throwable flotation device (in the U.S., a Type IV PFD)   navigation lights suitable for the type of boat operation   visual distress signals (VSDs) which are effective both day and night   sound making devices including horns and bells   fire extinguisher(s)  
  • a copy of the Inland Rules of the Road
Other items might seem obvious but are not actually required by law. They include a flashlight, first aid kit, paddles, whistles, anchor and rode, engine spare parts, bilge pumps, a VHF radio or mobile phone, etc.

In addition to these safety items listed above, the Code of Federal Regulations lists some additional required items that may not fall into the common definition of "safety" items:
  • backfire arresters on gasoline powered vessels   ventilation systems on gasoline powered vessels   plaques which list the penalties associated with polution due to oil  discharge, or dumping trash overboard  
  • a marine sanitation system (MSD) which prevents water polution from sewage  
State laws may add to this list of requirements. Most of the differences fall into a few categories:
  • laws requiring life jackets to be worn in specific activities or by  children   upgraded life jackets for specific activities or by children  
  • restrictions on the types of MSDs that are allowed within state borders  increased use of PFDs or Life Vests.  Wear rates in 2003 were around 22.4% [7], although state  and Federal laws requiring children to wear flotation were more common, and  therefore children's wear rates were much higher than those for adults.  Relatively few children die in boating accidents; the more likely victim is an  adult male in the mid-afternoon in a boat (under 20 feet length over all) who  is not wearing a PFD.
Not surprisingly, that also describes a typical boater under normal conditions.

While various strategies have been devised in the last few decades to increase PFD wear rates, the observed rate has been relatively constant. This has led to the possibility of legislation requiring PFD usage on boats under a specified length when underway.

Interestingly, the percentage of deaths due to drowning have declined (from 80% to 70%) in the last decade for a peculiar reason. Personal Watercraft, or PWCs [8], have increased in popularity for the last 15 years, and account for about 70 fatalities per year (2002). However, PWC operators commonly wear PFDs, and therefore have a relatively low incidence of drowning. Trauma, largely due to collisions with other vessels and the shoreline, accounts for 70% of PWC fatalies while drowning accounts for about 30%.

Drowning

 
In the U.S., approximately 700 people die per year as a result of recreational boating accidents. These accidents are tabulated in the B.A.R.D., or Boating Accident Reporting Database [9] , which is published each year by the U.S. Coast Guard based on the cumulative records of the National Association of Boating Law Administrators (NASBLA) [10]. Since 1970, when recreational boating deaths peaked at about 1700 per year, the annual rate of fatalities has been declining at a rate of about 2% per year. The majority of these deaths (70%) occur due to drowning , and are frequently associated with small powerboat accidents. Other causes of death include trauma (especially with small powerboats), fire, carbon monoxide poisoning, and hypothermia.

The cause of the reduction of deaths is subject to some debate, but the Federal Boat Safety Act [11] in the 1970s required that boats under 20' be equipped with level flotation. This change in boat construction meant that boaters who found themselves in the water next to a swamped boat could climb back into the boat and both reduce their likelihood of drowning, while increasing the size of a search target and reducing hypothermia. Other frequently named causes include improved boater safety education, increased use of life jackets, and improved boating safety gear.

Carbon Monoxide

In the early 2000s, several high-profile deaths due to carbon monoxide poisoning (CO) led to increased scrutiny of boating habits (especially the practice of towing participants immediately behind a boat, known as "teak surfing" or "platform towing") and the implementation of various warning placards to educate boaters of the hazards arising from these activities. Other CO-related deaths were attributed to high concentrations of CO gas from houseboat generator exhaust, where swimmers were able to access an area of concentrated exhaust. This has led to improved pollution controls on modern generator sets, and changes in the designs of houseboats so that they discharge exhaust gasses in areas where they can disipate. The increased use of CO detectors, especially in boats with enclosed accommodation spaces, would help reduce the risk of CO poisoning.

Boat Make and Brand Name Codes

Boats manufactured in the United States (except military vessels) have a three-character U. S. Coast Guard manufacturer's identification code as the first three characters of the manufacturer's assigned boat hull number. Some large manufacturers who have several boat building plants have been assigned multiple codes by the Coast Guard.  When entering a record for a boat made by such a manufacturer, the Boat Make  field code should agree with the first three characters of the boat hull number.

Canadian manufacturers may apply to the U. S. Coast Guard for a manufacturer's identification code.  If the Coast Guard assigns a code, it will begin with the alphabetic Z.

This table contains Make (BMA) and Brand (BRA) field codes for boat manufacturers.  For boat file records, if a code is not listed, the code MISC should be entered as the Boat Make with the actual manufacturer's name appearing in MISCELLANEOUS field.
