A boater should give their float plan to a friend or relative ashore. This is important in case of an emergency so that someone knows their planned route and expected return time. It is also recommended to keep a copy aboard the boat with registration papers. Posting it on the marina or ramp bulletin board can also be helpful in case anyone needs to know the boat's whereabouts.
