 The next step will be to conduct an in-depth investigation into the accident's cause. This involves looking over the evidence to determine how the accident occurred and any damage or injuries that could have occurred as caused by the collision.
 
 Human error is the root cause of a lot of boat accidents. These mistakes can lead to disaster, whether the person was distracted, driving at dangerous speeds, drunk while boating or simply making poor choices during an emergency.

 Other boat accidents can cause head injuries or drowning caused by collisions with another vessel or with an object. This can include falling overboard and causing 70% of all boating deaths reported in New York since 2005. These accidents can also happen when a boat comes into contact with fixed objects like bridges or piers, or submerged rocks.
 
 Damages
 
 Compensation can help families and victims cope with the financial losses that result from an accident. A successful claim could cover medical expenses, lost wages resulting from absences due to injuries, as well as other costs.
 
 Similar to car accidents, in order to recover damages from an accident on the water, victims must show that the person responsible for their injuries breached their duty of care and this breach was the direct cause of their damages.
