90% of those in Florida boating accidents never took safety course
The leading cause of death is drowning and could be averted by simply
wearing a life jacket.


I'll bet that 50% of the accidents involved alcohol too.


Not really. some 60% of drowned fishermen have their fly open. Peeing off
the back of a small boat can be hazardous to your health. Maybe they were
peeing because of the beer.
