To keep our recreational waterways safe, boatowners must combine courtesy and common sense with a sound knowledge of boating and navigational principles, according to the American Insurance Association.

The Association advises small craft owners -- especially those with limited experience -- to enroll in courses of instruction offered by the U. S. Coast Guard Auxiliary, power squadrons and other boating organizations. Good boatsmen -- like good automobile drivers -- are made, not born, the Association maintains. Whether a motor boat becomes a plea sure boat or a menace to life and property depends on how it is cared for and operated.
