When should the boat's engine be turned off to avoid propeller strike injuries?

  1. When passengers are swimming

  2. When passengers are boarding or disembarking

  3. While fishing

  4. At full speed

The correct answer is: When passengers are boarding or disembarking

Avoiding propeller strike injuries is important to ensure the safety of passengers on a boat. One of the best ways to prevent these types of injuries is to turn off the boat's engine when passengers are boarding or disembarking. This way, the risk of someone accidentally falling into the water and getting injured by the propeller is minimized. Options A and C would also be incorrect as passengers are outside of the boat and in close proximity to the propeller. Option D, at full speed, would be incorrect as the engine needs to be running in order to be at full speed. Therefore, option B is the most appropriate and safest choice to avoid propeller strike injuries on a boat.
