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

  1. Attempt to swim to shore immediately

  2. Keep your wet clothes on to trap heat

  3. Shed all clothing and swim to reduce weight

  4. Float calmly until help arrives

The correct answer is: Keep your wet clothes on to trap heat

If you fall into cold water while boating, it is essential to keep your wet clothes on to trap body heat. Wet clothing can actually help insulate your body and prevent rapid heat loss, which is crucial for increasing your chances of survival in cold water. Removing clothing in cold water can lead to hypothermia setting in faster, so it is always best to keep your clothes on and focus on staying afloat and conserving energy until help arrives.
