The Handbook of Louisiana Boating Laws and Responsibilities

The Handbook of Louisiana Boating Laws and Responsibilities is the official boating handbook developed for the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries. The Handbook introduces you to Louisiana laws governing boating and provides general information about safe vessel operation.


Boater education prevents accidents and saves lives. Whether or not your state requires it, all boaters have a responsibility to learn about boat operation, communications, navigation, and life-saving techniques before taking to the water.
