Missouri law calls for anybody born after January 1, 1984, who operates a vessel or non-public watercraft on Missouri lakes to possess a certified boating safety training card and photo ID. According to U.S. Coast Guard facts, eighty.6 percentage of boating deaths befell on boats in which the boat operator had never received boating schooling training. Only 19. Four percent of deaths happened on boats wherein the operator had received nationally accredited boating protection training.
