So it is legal to be driving a motorboat, or paddling a canoe with an alcoholic beverage in one hand and the steering wheel or canoe paddle in the other hand, as long as your blood alcohol level is lower than 0.08, or eight percent.
.08 means .08 grams of alcohol per 100 milliliters of blood, which is far from 8%.
