Boating can be a soothing and relaxing activity, but it also can be a source of body aches and musculoskeletal injuries. Whether from the strenuous activity unique to sailing, the constant muscular adjustments your body makes on a swaying boat or the repetitive motions associated with other water sports popular with boaters, it is not unusual to experience body pains more than those usually associated with “just being tired.” The boat’s movement and structure can cause additional pressure to be exerted on one’s musculature. In addition, slips and falls while boating can cause serious as well as minor musculoskeletal injuries.

This 24-page guide addresses some of the most common boating-related musculoskeletal injuries, including:

• Sprains
• Dislocations
• Fractures
• Tendonitis
• Back Pain
• Joint Pain
• Neck Pain
• Muscle Strain
