Law enforcement will be on the water in full force this weekend, trying to cut back on drunken boating.

With all of Wisconsin’s lakes and rivers, it’s not uncommon to see someone driving a boat while drinking a beer.

But law enforcement agencies across the country this weekend are trying to stop intoxicated operators. In Wisconsin, the Department of Natural Resources is teaming up with local law enforcement agencies for Operation Dry Water.
