Page 8, Terrace Bay-Schreiber News, Wednesday, July 2, 1986 July 1 You sensed it the mo- ment the boat left the har- bour. The day's wind would be every sailor's dream, gently guiding the boat throught the cool blue 'waters. It was a perfect day for sailing. But don't be fooled. Weather conditions can change in a split second. Some 9,000 Canadian boaters will require the assistance of the Canadian Coast Guard's Search and Rescue department this year unless they do some- thing to improve their prudence and skills on the water. The Canada Safety Co- uncil recommends that all persons who operate a vessel take a boating course. Here, they can learn the fundamentals of small vessel operation and gain hands-on experience in boat handling. They'll also learn: what equipment to carry; how to use charts, tide and current tables, lifesaving equipment, and signals; boating laws; knots and anchoring; basic main- tenance; and how to con- tact marine weather and emergency services. July 1 to 7 is National Safe Boating Week. The Canada Safety Council, is co-operation with Trans- port Canada and Provin- cial Safety Councils and Leagues, has been sponsor- ing this campaign every year since 1973 to promote safe boating in Canada. For 1986, the Council has chosen the theme "'Take A Boating Course!"" because it believes that education is an important first step in developing good boating habits. Here are a few pointers from the Canada Safety Council to help you steer clear of an accident this summer: (1) All pleasure craft, in- cluding sailboats, rowboats and canoes, must carry cer- tain equipment in good operating order. There must be one approved life- jacket for each person on board, two oars or paddles, and a bailer. Depending on the size of the craft you operate, a fire exting- uisher, flares, a sound signalling device, an an- chor with rope and an ap- proved lifesaving cushion may also be required. Navigation lights, horns and bells must comply with DEADLINE EXTENDED TO JULY 18 OR NORTHERN ONTARIO CREATE ANEW ORAYOUNG P JOB ERSON AND WE'LL PAY YOU forms, call our special toll free number for $1.25 AN HOUR.

Alcohol slows the reflexes, impairs visual acuity, and affects balance and coordination. Not on- ly is it a dangerous prac- tice, it's also against the law. (3) Overloading and overpowering a boat can cause it to capsize or over- turn. Maximum capacities are shown on the capacity plate. For safety's sake, don't exceed these limits. (4) Approximately 80 per cent of the people who drown in boating accidents were not wearing a life- jacket. The law requires that a lifejacket or personal flotation device, approved by Transport Canada, must be available for each per- son on board. The Canada Safety Council strongly recommends that children and weak swimmers wear theirs at all times and others when water condi- tions warrant. (5) Leave word with so- meone on shore where you plan to go and your ex- pected time of return. Head for shore immediately if a storm threatens. (6) Take a boating course and, if possible, join a boat club to keep up to date with changes in regulations and other safe boating information. The Canada Safety Co- uncil is an independent, non-political, non-profit organization concerned with all aspects of public, traffic and occupational safety.
