Vehicle, Boat

You Need to Know

To stop invasive species from entering our water ways follow these best practices from Idaho and California: 1. CLEAN Before leaving any waterbody, always inspect equipment (boats, planes, trailers, decoy anchors, scuba gear, and lures) for visible plants and animals. Remove this material on site. Carefully check places that are still damp. Dispose of the removed material in a trash receptacle or on high, dry ground where there is no danger of it washing into a waterbody. 2. DRAIN Eliminate water from all equipment, including motors, live wells, wakeboard ballast tanks, boat hulls, scuba gear, bait buckets, waders, and boots. 3. DRY Clean and dry anything that came in contact with water (boats, decoys, trailers, equipment, clothing, dogs, etc.). COMPLETELY DRY YOUR BOAT, TRAILER AND ALL WATER RELATED EQUIPMENT BEFORE LAUNCHING IN ANOTHER WATER BODY.

General Information

When the boat is no longer serving your family with enjoyment or it is not running you can donate it to a charity or non-profit organization that will use the proceeds for community service projects. Boats left in yards should be covered to keep small animals and insects from making it their home and using it for breeding.
