  1.  As stated by http://www.regionalgardengurus.com/uncategorized/boat-safety-procedures-requirements-for-boating/ , of those 838 kids who drowned in 2003, 88% were under supervision. That's how fast something may happen.

  3.  Mothers are also at risk. Diving in to water can be a common source of mind and back injury. If you are in water in which you can't determine its thickness, jump in feet first. Both fishing and swimming in the boat has also caused drownings. Standing in the vessel to cast your own line, leaning to net your grab, or even simply moving around in the ship might cause you to fall out or capsize, creating a drowning potential.
  4.  Other high-risk activities which can lead to drowning include usage of alcohol and drugs. Combining these together with your summer water activities can be fatal as a result of impairment in judgment, balance, and coordination.
  5.  Still another significant hazard when on or in the water is perceptible. Now's fiberglass-constructed tiny boats are especially vulnerable to lightning strikes since no projection above the flat surface of the water functions as a potential lightning rod. In many cases, the small boat proprietor or casual weekend sailor isn't aware of the vulnerability into the hazards of lightning. If caught in a storm on the open water, follow the following tips: stop all water-related actions; make certain you're wearing your personal flotation device (PFD); stay low in the ship or, if equipped with a cottage, go indoors and stay static in the centre; don't dangle bodyparts in the water; don't make contact with multiple metallic objects at the boat.
  6.  Carbon monoxide is just another deadly hazard when drifting. The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) claims that a normal boat engine puts the identical exhaust of 188 cars. Skiing, surfing, or swimming beneath a vessel might result in an over exposure to the gas. The swim stage in the back of a boat is thought of as one of the most dangerous place concerning carbon monoxide poisoning. Do not select that area for sunning, napping, or playing.
  7.  Plus some eleventh hour safety tips: never swim alone; stay hydrated - drink plenty of plain water; use sunscreen; use insect repellent; if boating, maintain the security equipment needed to maintain water vessels and always wear your PFD - personal flotation apparatus; usually do not swim in open boat lanes or close piers; check out the surf terms and also be awake for rip tides and currents; check weather reports if intending to maintain the drinking water.
  8.  Water activities are fun and offer for all happy family . Take the common sense precautions so youpersonally, your loved ones, and friends and family continue to build those great memories and that everyone returns safely home. Enjoy a wonderful time!
