What should be checked before going boating to ensure safety?

  1. Local entertainment options

  2. Maps and charts

  3. If pets are allowed

  4. Upcoming events in the area

The correct answer is: Maps and charts

Before going boating, it is important to check maps and charts to ensure you are familiar with the waterway and any potential hazards. This option is the only one that directly relates to boating safety. Local entertainment options and upcoming events may be helpful to know about, but do not directly impact safety. Checking if pets are allowed may be important for those who plan on bringing their pets on the boat, but does not impact general boating safety.
