On powerboats 26 ft or less in length What determines if passengers may legally ride on the bow or gunwale when the vessel is undeway?
On powerboats 26 feet or less, whether passengers may legally ride on the bow or gunwale while the vessel is underway is primarily determined by state and local regulations, which often align with the U.S. Coast Guard guidelines. Generally, in many jurisdictions, riding on the bow or gunwale is prohibited due to safety concerns, as it can increase the risk of falls overboard. Additionally, it is essential that the boat is equipped with proper safety gear and that all passengers are aware of the risks involved. Always check specific local laws and regulations for compliance.
When may a passenger legally ride on the bow or gunwale while the boat is underway?

When may passengers legally ride on the bow or gunwale when the vessel is underway?
If your boat is a bow rider, that is it has seats built in to the bow are, and hand holds or railings, and people can sit safely, without risk of falling over board, or blocking the operators view, then they can ride there. When a boat is coming into the dock and someone needs to go forward to handle lines, but only if the boat is moving slowly and it is safe to do so. On sailboats to handle or change sails. On either to raise an anchor. On the gunwale, only when the boat is not moving, or it is necessary to retrieve lines or an anchor. The exception is some inflatable boats where the only place to sit is on the tubes, and they have handles or hand holds to hang on to.
