Technology Advances in Boating and the Call for Safety

An entrepreneur residing in New York, Richard DiVenuto also offers expert advice to businesses. Outside of his profession, Richard DiVenuto enjoys boating in his free time.

Today’s boating enthusiasts benefit from a lot of the advances in the activity, including technological ones. Technology has made the experience of boating much more pleasurable. From smart lightings, such as colored mood lighting and underwater lights, to remote monitoring, these technologies have made it possible to manage a boat from a phone. Moreover, digital switches have replaced mechanical toggle switches and allow users to automate most functions, including alarms, lights, bow thrusters, and climate control devices, from a phone.

Outside of technology, there has been a push to focus on boating safety. Many of the accidents that happened in the last few years were related to the mistakes of boat operators who did not receive proper training or have been influenced by alcohol. This is expected to launch an effort to see guidelines established for boat safety. In New York, for example, the state created a bill establishing guidelines for requiring safety courses and for addressing operating a boat under the influence.
