May 29, 2025 | 8:14 PM

The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency (TWRA) reports there were no boating-related fatalities over the Memorial Day holiday weekend.

There was one injury reported, a tubing incident occurring on Watts Bar Lake, and two other incidents which involved property damage.

Additionally, TWRA wildlife officers made five Boating Under the Influence arrests.

The TWRA had a strong presence across the state over the weekend. Agency officials reported cool temperatures and rainy conditions for most of the weekend which kept the recreational boating traffic lower than normal.
