Attached is the Recreational Boating Statistics For 2011 report.

Pretty sobering when you see that a huge majority of deaths and injuries are a result of basic operator errors.

Measure once, cut twice. Or is it the other way around? ::)

Rob:  On a serious note, most of what you see is preventable through common sense.  I always treat water with great pleasure and caution.  It can be dangerous out there.  Thanks for the report.  Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.
