What is advised for extended outings on the water?

Carry extra fuel
Leave a float plan with a relative or friend, or at least a local marina
Always wear life jackets
Carry a waterproof map

The correct answer is: Leave a float plan with a relative or friend, or at least a local marina

Extended outings on the water can be unpredictable and may require extra precautions. While the other options may also be advised for safety purposes, option B is the best choice because it involves informing someone else about your trip. In the case of an emergency, someone will have information about your whereabouts and can alert authorities if necessary. Option A, carrying extra fuel, may be necessary but does not address the issue of safety. Option C, always wearing life jackets, is also important, but does not involve notifying others about your trip. Option D, carrying a waterproof map, may be useful for navigation but does not involve safety considerations. Therefore, option B is the most appropriate choice for an extended outing on the water.
