C. — Recreational boating like «o many other outdoor activities is surrounded by a vast assoit- ment of rules, slogans and regulations. Most of these Jtules definitely serve a good pui’pose. That purjxjse is, of <xjurse, the safety of life and the protection of projx^ly. A small percentage of the state s boat skipjjers kiK>« all of the rules — well almost. Too many, however, k.*ow few,, if any, boating safety rules of thumb. But it is not the intention of this writer to condemn the lec-jeationaJ boating brotherhood to which so many ol us proudly be long. And this is not to suggest that a person must pass a 20-page written exam to safely operate an oul.lxtard a- long a given water course. The fact that few if any of us know all the rules is really not very important. Of jjrime importance is the fact that there are certain easy to un derstand, easy to apply rules that will see us through. After all we are talking about pleasure Iwating and not “victory at sea.” National Safe Boating Week, June 28-July 4, for this year is a time for emphasizing these boating basics. Is Safe Boating Week “just another of those weeks?” The man or family who owns a boat should not let the week pass without serious thought to safety afloat. Safe Boating Is No Accident, the slogan for 1970 de scribes the situation accurately. Safe boating jiequires a little effort and time. Governor Bob Scott gave of his time ^ m mm when he signed this year’s proclamation in a ^>ecial office IfftWHf C|>|f session early in the year. The meeting w'as attended by I mmmnM boating interests from all walks of life. Tjhihijlij BAMtac It also takes a little time on the part of the new comej- 1 VlUliVy DCJUO to boating to learn the basic safety rules. Attending <4 jp • a. U. S. Power Squadron or U. S. Coast Guai-d Auxiliajy | ^ iM BJHtv course is best. But books, pamphlets, and films are in; * abundance. State and federal agencies, Iroating organi- .lunjuj ttf Hw zations and the boating industry groups all offe J'educa-jicouony cUub wiiii ;>«! • tional materials. A lack of this material cannot be used ■ pci^iau in a •touiauauent nm as an excuse for a boating accident. Thursday and yrjday this .wnek. Read extensively into this material and you vvill find a thousand pieces of information and a hundred rules that you may wish to retain. This new found know ledge w ill certainly make you a more confident boater and will in sure greater enjoyment from your plea.sure boating. But just a few of these rules will offer high quality insurance again.st accidents. While there is no guarantee, “Safety first and keep to the right, ” for example, has a lot going for it. Termed the golden rule of boating safely, this slo gan means just what it says. Think .safety—boating safety, that is, as you step aboard, and steer to the jighl upon meeting traffic. Another very important boating .safety traffic rule involves the right of way. The boat on your right has the right of w’ay, simple as that. You must reduce speed or alter course to let it pass. In nautical terms, the boat dead ahead or 22^^ degrees abaft (toward the sto-n) the star board beam has the right of way. The area described is called your danger zone. This rule as does the othej . keei^ boats separated. Each operator knows what the other is suppose to do. Slow'—No Wake, is the practical boat speed limit. Slowing, in congested areas, to idling speed or to a point where your boat develops no appreciable wake i-eally makes the boating scene look .safe. Remember you ate le- sponsible for any damage caused by youi’ w ake. There is an old saying from the days of the sailing ships which can be applied to the small craft of today. li goes something like this, one hand for the ship and one for yourself. In other words, take care of youi' nautical chores but don’t fall overboard doing it. Falls oveiboard are a major cause of boating fatalities. Keeping a close watch, another well known rule, has prevented many a mishap. It’s a cardinal lule but simple enough. Keep your eyes open, stay alert. Certainly in this type of treatment, we should not leave out: respect for the weather. You don’t have to be' a nautical engineer to know what type of wind and w ave action your boat will stand. • There are a number of other rules that should be included. But by name only consider these: keep things; shipshape and out from underfoot; have aboard more than just the required equipment; don’t overload your boat (a rule too often violated); leave word about your trip with some responsible person; u.se navigational light at night.;' take plenty of fuel; obey the law; and learn to swim and; always be courteous to all water users. Have we left out .some rules? The answer to that would have to be yes. I am sure you can add others. We did not say, don’t ever stand up in a boat; always wear a life saving device; and don t go out in the rain. Let us not make hard and fast rules on these items. Such topics are always debatable. We might suggest, however, that you use caution when standing in any boat, request non-swim mers and handicapped persons to wear life saving deiioes and require all hands to don a life saving device when conditions warrant, and don’t venture out into a storm but if you must operate in a light rain keep a close w atch and beware of slippery deck, etc. In other words, take aboard your craft an abundance of common sense. Have a safety attitude. According to records maintained by the Wildlife Commission, boating fatalities to date have dexmeased by one half as compared to last year. It is, I beliet'e, the pres ence of or lack of a safety attitude that affects the acci dent picture. Remember, basic rules, simple rules, together' with a desire to stay safe and to keep others safe will go a long way towards reducing Tarheel boating accidents.
