 The North Dakota Game and Fish Department is reminding boaters that accidents do happen, but they must be reported within 48 hours. Officials say this includes any crashes, injury, death, or disappearance of a person. A boat operator has five days to report if the damage is in cases where the damage is more than $2,000, but there's no injury or death. Boat accident forms are available at any Game and Fish office or online at the North Dakota Game and Fish website.
