Florida recently released it's 2011statistics on boating. The numbers show that 67 people lost their lives in Florida while boating last year and so far 2012 has 28 deaths. Not surprisingly, most deaths are due to drowning and could have been prevented by simply wearing a life jacket.
Without a doubt, our hearts go out to those who lost family and friends due to accidental death while boating. As much as we wish there could be a magic remedy for this, we know that the best way to prevent deaths while boating is through education.
Safashor manufactures products to help make boating a safer, more enjoyable sport. We want to see families out on the water enjoying themselves and creating lasting memories. The best way to ensure that boating will be a fun, safe sport in the future is to pass along the lessons on safe boating to your kids and grandkids. We would much rather celebrate stats like a new record fish, more people receiving their scuba certification, or a sharp increase in wake board sales.
Have fun and stay safe out there! Don't forget to like us on Facebook and tweet with us on Twitter! For more information about what Safashor can do for you, write us at safashor@comcast.net.
