California has almost 3,400 miles of ocean shoreline and nearly 8,000 square miles of inland water for boating, fishing and other water sports. The pristine waters up and down California’s coast are also home to boating accidents.

In 2006, according to the California Department of Boating and Waterways report, there were 757 reported accidents, injuring 445 people and killing 42 people causing more than 8.9 million dollars in property damage.

The causes of boating accidents vary greatly. The most common type of accident involving open motorboats is collision with another vessel, followed by accidents involving skier mishaps, and falls overboard.
