CHARLEVOIX COUNTY -- Most of?boating?safety tips are common sense, but this time of year it's best to pay attention to the little details that will likely help the most if you find yourself in trouble.
Charlevoix?County Sheriff's Deputies?suggest boaters carry a few extra things on board this year.
Deputies say with the water temperatures dipping it is smart to carry blankets, hypothermia kits, and first aid materials.
Water temperatures are right around 40 degrees in most northern Michigan lakes.
And while no one is likely swimming, they say anyone drinking on a boat runs a higher risk of falling into the ice cold water.
Another thing they are stressing this season is having a spotter for all boating sports like water skiing and tubing.
