Georgia has passed a tough new boating under the influence (BUI) law, and it goes into effect this Wednesday, May 15, 2013. The new legal blood alcohol level of a boat operator has been lowered to the same level that it is on the road - from .10 to .08.
Additional legislation in the state requires younger boat operators to take a boating education course beginning in July of next year, and effective immediately, all children under 13 are required to wear life vests.
