How to safely paddle Georgia's waterways

It's National Safe Boating Week and Paul Milliken gets advice on how to safely paddle on Georgia's waterways.

Paddling Georgia’s waterways during National Safe Boating Week: We’re right in the middle of National Safe Boating Week, and the National Safe Boating Council has a simple message: life jackets save lives. According to the National Safe Boating Council website (using data from the U.S. Coast Guard’s 2024 Recreational Boating Statistics), 76% of boating deaths are due to drowning — and 87% of victims aren’t wearing a life jacket. That’s why advocates say boaters shouldn’t just have life jackets on board, but should be wearing them at all times. Here in Georgia, National Safe Boating Week kicked off on Saturday, May 16th with a series of low-cost "Kayaking 101" classes at several locations. The initiative was led by the Georgia chapter of the American Canoe Association and several partner agencies, with the goal of teaching people the basics of safe kayaking.
