Today’s Ron Murphy Fishing Trip

Bob Seidler & George Scheppler show off some nice stripers in the 18-20 lb range. It was a picture perfect Cape Cod morning – they report being tripled up the whole time.

BOAT SMART, UPDATE YOUR CHARTS

The Alliance for Safe Navigation (ASN) has released an updated version of the educational white paper Boat Smart, Update Your Charts and is making this informative document available to the public, boating journalists, boating organizations and the marine industry through a variety of channels. It is available for immediate download online.

First produced in 2010, this new version of Boat Smart, Update Your Charts incorporates the latest published boating accident statistics and contributing factors from the U.S. Coast Guard. It underscores the fact that many boaters continue to sail with outdated navigation charts.

Some eye-opening facts from Boat Smart, Update Your Charts:

Twenty five percent of boaters surveyed by ASN reported running aground in the past five years.

Collisions with fixed objects were the third-highest cause of boating accidents in 2011.

Twenty nine percent of ASN survey respondents reported they never update their electronic charts.
