What should you do if you fall into cold water while boating?

  1. Swim to warm up

  2. Keep as much of your body out of the water as possible

  3. Remove clothing to reduce weight

  4. Tread water

The correct answer is: Keep as much of your body out of the water as possible

Falling into cold water while boating can be dangerous. Swimming or treading water will only cause you to lose body heat faster. Removing clothing from your body will also cause you to lose body heat. Keeping as much of your body out of the water as possible is the best option, as it will help you retain your body heat and prevent hypothermia from setting in.
