Alabama Boating License Practice Test

Question: 1 / 400

To prevent capsizing, what should paddlers do?

Paddle only in shallow water

Keep gear to a minimum

Keep a high center of gravity

Keep a low center of gravity and three points of contact

It is important for paddlers to keep a low center of gravity and have three points of contact to avoid capsizing. Paddling in shallow water (option A) or keeping a high center of gravity (option C) could actually increase the likelihood of capsizing. Minimizing gear (option B) can help reduce the risk of tipping but is not as effective as having a low center of gravity and three points of contact.
