Boating Studies
Florida’s Legislature directed the FWC to conduct a study to explore if a correlation exists between long-term stored vessels and derelict vessels; to identify the impacts to local and state economies, public safety, infrastructure, and the environment; and to provide recommendations to help mitigate any identified negative impacts.

The FWC commissioned a vessel traffic study to evaluate the need for a boating safety zone in Jupiter Narrows, which is in the Intracoastal Waterway. The study aims to demonstrate whether vessel traffic congestion, vessel speed, wake, or vessel operation pose significant risks.
