PUBLIC INFORMATION STATEMENT...NATIONAL SAFE BOATING WEEK
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAY ME
100 AM EDT MON MAY 21 2012
...NATIONAL SAFE BOATING WEEK CONTINUES THIS WEEK...
AS DISCUSSED SATURDAY...COLD WATER CAN ALLOW FOR TREACHEROUS EARLY
SEASON BOATING IN MAINE AND NEW HAMPSHIRE.
EACH YEAR WE HAVE TRAGEDIES IN OUR COLD NORTH ATLANTIC WATERS. THIS
IS INCREASINGLY PROBLEMATIC WHEN BOATERS ASSUME CONDITIONS ARE SAFE
DURING UNSEASONABLY MILD SPRING DAYS. WINDS CAN RAPIDLY
INCREASE...ALLOWING ROUGH SEAS TO CAPSIZE SMALL BOATS SUCH CANOES
AND KAYAKS.
HERE ARE SOME GUIDES AND TIPS RECOMMENDED BY SAFETY EXPERTS FOR
KAYAKS...
* ALWAYS CHECK THE WEATHER FORECAST BEFORE ANY VOYAGE
* USE 15 TO 16 FOOT KAYAKS FOR OPEN-WATER BOATING WHICH HAVE
WATERTIGHT FLOATION CHAMBERS. THE BOATS ARE MORE STABLE IN WIND AND
WAVES.
* USE SPRAY SKIRTS THAT CAN KEEP WATER FROM WASHING INTO A BOAT AND
REDUCE STABILITY.
* USE A WET OR A DRY SUIT UNTIL THE WATER TEMPERATURES REACH 60
DEGREES.
* KEEP A WATERPROOF VHF RADIO OR A CELL PHONE IN A WATERTIGHT CASE.
* HAVE A SIGNALING DEVICE ON HAND.
* ALWAYS WEAR A LIFE JACKET.
* MAKE NOTE OF ANY POTENTIAL STRONG OUTGOING OR INCOMING TIDAL
CURRENTS...ESPECIALLY AT HALF TIDE.
* KEEP NAMES AND PHONE NUMBERS ON THE BOAT.

PUBLIC INFORMATION STATEMENT...NATIONAL SAFE BOATING WEEK
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAY ME
930 AM EDT SUN MAY 20 2012
...THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CONTINUES TO OBSERVE MAY 19TH THROUGH MAY 25TH AS NATIONAL SAFE BOATING WEEK...
THE FREQUENCY OF BOATING ACCIDENTS VARY CONSIDERABLY. HOWEVER...TRENDS BEGIN
TO APPEAR WHEN REVIEWING STATISTICS NATIONALLY. THE FOLLOWING ARE ANNUAL BOATING STATISTICS...COURTESY OF THE UNITED STATES COAST GUARD AND THE DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY...
* IN 2010...THE COAST GUARD COUNTY 4604 ACCIDENTS THAT INVOLVED 672 DEATHS...3153 INJURIES AND 36 MILLION DOLLARS OF DAMAGE TO PROPERTY AS A RESULT OF RECRATIONAL BOATING ACCIDENTS.
* ALMOST THREE-FOURTHS OF ALL FATAL BOATING ACCIDENT VICTOMS DROWNED...AND OF
THOSE...EIGHT-EIGHT PERCENT WERE NOT REPORTED AS WEARING A LIFE JACKET.
* ONLY NINE PERCENT OF DEATHS OCCURRED ON BOATS WHERE THE OPERATOR HAD
RECEIVED BOATING SAFETY INSTRUCTION. SIX OUT OF EVERY 10 BOATERS WHO DROWNED
WERE USING BOATS LESS THAN 21 FEET IN LENGTH.
* OPERATOR INATTENTION...OPERATOR INEXPERIENCE...EXCESSIVE SPEED...IMPROPER
LOOKOUT AND ALCOHOL RANK AS THE TOP FIVE PRIMARY CONTRIBUTING FACTORS IN ACCIDENTS.
* ALCOHOL USE IS THE LEADING CONTRIBUTING FACTOR IN FATAL BOATING ACCIDENTS; IT WAS LISTED AS THE LEADING FACTOR IN 19 PERCENT OF THE DEATHS.
* TWENTY ONE CHILDREN UNDER AGE THIRTEEN LOST THEIR LIVES WHILE BOATING IN 2010. 44 PERCENT OF THE CHILDREN WHO DIED IN 2010 DIED FROM DROWNING. FORTY-FOUR PERCENT OF THOSE WHO DROWNED WERE WEARING A LIEF JACKET AS REQUIRED TO DO SO BY LAW.
* THE MOST COMMON TYPES OF VESSELS INVOLVED IN REPORTED ACCIDENTS WERE OPEN
MOTORBOATS...FOLLOWED BY PERSONAL WATERCRAFT AND THEN CABIN MOTORBOATS.

PUBLIC INFORMATION STATEMENT...NATIONAL SAFE BOATING WEEK
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAY ME
915 AM EDT SAT MAY 19 2012
...PLEASE JOIN THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN OBSERVING NATIONAL SAFE BOATING WEEK...MAY 19TH THROUGH MAY 25TH...
EVEN THOUGH MAINE AND NEW HAMPSHIRE SET RECORD HIGH TEMPERATURES IN THE 80S FOR SEVERAL DAYS IN MARCHTHE WEATHER HAS REMAINED CHILLY FOR MUCH OF THE MONTH OF MAY. IN RESPONSEBOATERS NEED TO BE AWARE THAT WATER TEMPERATURES HAVE ONLY BEEN IN THE UPPER 40S TO LOWER 50S. THAT`S WHY THE NATIONAL SAFE BOATING COUNCIL WANTS TO REMIND PEOPLE OF THE DANGERS OF COLD WATER BOATING.
COLD WATER IS DEFINED AS ANY WATER WITH A TEMPERATURE OF 70 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT OR LOWER. BOATERS SHOULD ALWAYS BE AWARE OF THE DANGERS OF COLD WATER...PARTICULARLY DURING THE EARLY PART OF THE BOATING SEASON WHEN THE WATER IS COLDER AND WHERE THERE ARE NOT MANY OTHER BOATERS AROUND TO HELP.
THE FIRST HAZARDS OF COLD WATER ARE PANIC AND SHOCK. THE INITIAL SHOCK CAN SEVERELY STRAIN THE BODY AND MAY CAUSE INSTANT CARDIAC ARREST. SURVIVORS OF COLD WATER ACCIDENTS OFTEN DESCRIBE HAVING THEIR BREATH "KNOCKED OUT" OF THEM UPON THEIR FIRST IMPACT WITH THE WATER. DISORIENTATION MAY ALSO OCCUR AFTER COLD WATER IMMERSION.
THE MOST RECENT BOATING STATITISTICS ISSUED BY THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY AND THE COAST GUARD INDICATE THAT WATER TEMPERATURES
RESULTED IN 186 DEATHS WITH WATER TEMPERATURES BELOW 60 DEGREES. IN MAINE...THERE WERE A TOTAL OF 44 ACCIDENTS AND EIGHT FATALITIES DURING THE YEAR. SEVERAL OF THESE ACCIDENTS OCCURRED ON WARM...SUNNY DAYS...BUT WITH VERY COLD WATER TEMPERATURES ON THE LAKES...RIVERS AND THE OCEAN DURING THE SPRING.
SO PLEASE ALLOW FOR EXTRA CAUTION IF BOATING EARLY IN THE SEASON. BE ON ALERT FOR GUSTY WINDS OR CHOPPY SEAS THAT CAN EASILY CAPSIZE A SMALL CRAFT.
