"En plus de la prudence et du bon sens, le maniement des embarcations légères à moteur exige de la courtoisie. Ce film donne plusieurs conseils sur les embarcations et le ski nautique. Il expose aussi les dangers courants de la navigation et montre comment choisir une embarcation, un moteur de puissance appropriée, ainsi que tout le matériel requis : matériel de sauvetage, extincteur, feux de navigation, coffre d'outils, lampe de poche, trousse de premiers soins, etc."
