With the 2017 boating season just round the corner, it could be a good New Year Resolution to refresh our knowledge of how to stay safe in the water. Figures published by the U.S. Coastguard for 2014, show that in that year there were over 4,000 accidents, involving over 600 deaths, over 2,000 injuries and causing $39 million in property damage as a result of recreational boating accidents nationwide. To avoid becoming one of these statistics it might be useful to understand how the majority of these accidents occurred. While some accidents are inevitable, others can be avoided with knowledge, care and careful planning. Surprisingly some of the worst boating accidents actually stem from the most mundane events.
So take the next couple of months to refresh your safety skills and knowledge and hopefully we can all look forward to a good year’s boating in 2017.
