Experienced Texas Boating Accident Lawyers Fighting Under Maritime Law

Texas boasts some of the most extensive and popular waterways in the United States, from the Gulf of Mexico coastline to massive lakes like Lake Texoma, Lake Travis, and Lake Conroe, to major rivers including the Rio Grande, Brazos, and Trinity. With over 267,000 registered recreational boats and thousands of commercial vessels operating in Texas waters, boating is a major recreational activity and commercial industry throughout the state.

However, Texas waterways can be dangerous, and boating accidents occur with alarming frequency. According to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, hundreds of boating accidents occur annually in Texas, resulting in serious injuries and deaths. Unlike automobile accidents that are governed by state law, most boating accidents fall under federal maritime law and admiralty jurisdiction, creating a complex legal landscape that many attorneys don’t understand.

At Harper Law Firm, we have extensive experience handling boating accident cases under federal maritime law. Whether you were injured as a passenger on a recreational boat, a crew member on a commercial vessel, or a swimmer struck by a negligent boat operator, we understand the unique legal challenges these cases present. As experienced Texas boating accident lawyers, we fight to ensure injured victims receive the maximum compensation available under maritime law.

Common Types of Texas Boating Accidents

Collision Accidents

Boat-to-boat collisions are among the most serious types of accidents:

Head-On Collisions:

• Often occur in narrow channels or during poor visibility
• Frequently involve excessive speed or operator inattention
• Can cause catastrophic injuries and vessel damage
• May involve multiple vessels in chain-reaction accidents

Side-Impact and T-Bone Collisions:

• Often occur at channel intersections or congested areas
• May involve failure to yield right-of-way
• Can cause severe injuries to passengers on impact side
• Often result from operator inexperience or poor judgment

Rear-End Collisions:

• Frequently occur when faster boats overtake slower vessels
• May involve inadequate lookout or following too closely
• Can cause passengers to be thrown forward or overboard
• Often happen during busy periods with heavy boat traffic

Operator Negligence Accidents

Many boating accidents result from negligent boat operation:

Boating Under the Influence (BUI):

• Alcohol and drug impairment significantly increase accident risk
• Texas law prohibits operating boats with BAC of 0.08% or higher
• Impaired operators have slower reaction times and poor judgment
• BUI accidents often result in serious injuries and criminal charges

Excessive Speed and Reckless Operation:

• Speed limits and wake restrictions in many Texas waterways
• Excessive speed reduces operator reaction time and vessel control
• Can cause loss of control in turns or rough water conditions
• Creates dangerous wakes that can swamp smaller vessels

Inadequate Lookout and Inattention:

• Operators must maintain proper lookout at all times
• Distracted operation due to passengers, phones, or other activities
• Failure to see other vessels, swimmers, or navigation hazards
• Poor visibility conditions requiring reduced speed and extra caution

Equipment Failures and Defects

Mechanical failures can cause serious boating accidents:

Frequently Asked Questions About Texas Boating Accidents

Does maritime law apply to accidents on Texas lakes?

It depends on whether the lake is considered “navigable waters” under federal law. Large lakes used for interstate commerce (like Lake Texoma) typically fall under maritime law, while smaller private lakes may be governed by state law.

Can I sue if I was injured as a passenger on someone else’s boat?

Yes, boat passengers can sue for injuries caused by operator negligence, vessel defects, or dangerous conditions. The specific laws that apply depend on where the accident occurred and your relationship to the vessel.

What if the boat operator was drinking when the accident happened?

Operating a boat under the influence is illegal in Texas and can support both criminal charges and civil liability. BUI accidents often qualify for punitive damages due to the reckless nature of impaired operation.

Do I need special insurance to operate a boat in Texas?

Texas doesn’t require boat insurance, but it’s highly recommended. Many marinas require insurance for docking, and liability coverage protects you if you cause accidents that injure others or damage property.

What if I was injured by a boat propeller while swimming?

Propeller strikes can result in serious injury claims against boat operators for negligent operation, failure to maintain proper lookout, or violation of distance requirements from swimmers.

How long do I have to file a lawsuit for a boating accident?

Maritime law typically provides a three-year statute of limitations, but deadlines can vary depending on the specific type of claim and applicable law. Contact an attorney immediately to protect your rights.

Can crew members on charter boats sue their employers?

Yes, crew members who qualify as “seamen” under maritime law can file Jones Act claims against their employers for negligence, plus claims for maintenance and cure benefits.
