May Tips of the Month: National Safe
Boating Week
Boating is a popular past time in Southwest
Florida. According to the CDC in 2002, 4,062 participants were
reported injured and 750 killed in boating incidents. Among
those who died, approximately 8 out of 10 were not wearing life
jackets. The National Safe Boating Council in partnership with
the U.S. Coast Guard and the National Association of State
Boating Law Administrators want to combat these statistics with
this years campaign message: "BOAT SMART, BOAT
SAFE, WEAR IT."
