Power BOAT

Competition T by Alex Deininger

he Power Boat Competition hosted a "Suddenly in Charge" boating safety seminar, on Saturday, March 26th. There were about 35 participants who enjoyed an hour presentation covering various topics, followed by 5 breakout sessions. The presentation was given by new member, Bob Arrington, who brings an immense amount of knowledge to the club. He covered topics including radio communication, docking, and safety devices. We were fortunate to have several other volunteers, including a group from Eckerd’s student volunteer maritime search and rescue team, EC-SAR. The Eckerd students introduced the members to their free water rescue service, and also ran an interactive knot tying station.

Joe Frohock covered rules of the road, Bob Arrington had a vast display of safety devices, and Chuck Goes shared his expertise in reading charts. A huge thank you to all of the volunteers that made this event a great success. Keep an eye out for future boating education courses in the future.
