Summary

This Fourth of July, North Carolina’s waters are getting extra attention as law enforcement ramps up patrols under Operation Dry Water to keep boaters safe. With alcohol still a leading cause of deadly boating accidents — seven incidents this year alone involved impaired operators — authorities are urging everyone to wear life jackets (especially kids under 13), carry fire extinguishers, and use proper lighting at night. Slow down in busy areas, avoid boating under the influence, and remember: the water isn’t forgiving — stay sober, stay safe, and enjoy the holiday responsibly.
