Best Answer

Alcohol creates exactly the same problems for the operation of a vessel as it does for driving a car; it slows down your reaction speed, and impairs your judgment. If you are in the open water and no other boats are nearby, you may not need to react to anything quickly or with particularly good judgment, however, boats, like cars, are going to run into situations sooner or later in which it is important to react quickly and correctly to a potentially dangerous situation.
