If your boat capsizes, stay calm and assess the situation. If you’re wearing a life jacket, stay with the boat, as it can serve as a flotation device; otherwise, swim to safety if you’re far from shore. Signal for help if possible, and try to stay together with any passengers. If you’re in cold water, conserve energy and keep your body as still as possible to reduce heat loss.
