What Are The State Laws Regarding Boating And Alcohol?

It is illegal in Virginia to operate a boat while intoxicated by drugs and/or alcohol.

Boaters will be considered to be ‘under the influence’ if they have a Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) level of 0.08% or higher. Or, if the boater is under the age of 21 and has a BAC level of 0.02% or higher.

It’s important to drink responsibly and stay safe on the water! Learn more about the risks of drinking and boating by taking the BOATsmart! Virginia Boating Safety Course!
