Never Ignore Boat Safety !!

Please Forever keep this in mind
When pleasure boating
Be it on lake..river..ocean where ever

All children should wear life vests
Keep wackyness to a Minimum
Never Ignore Safety

Today..just a couple hours ago
2 people...a lady of 50 years old
And Very Sadly a boy of 7 years old
Drowned on an over loaded boat..one designed for regular lakes
Yet was on the Mighty Hudson river
2 others in cridical condition and another 8 in varying degrees of serious condition and hospitalised

Just for a fun trip in the water
No one were wearing life vests ( the child should have been at veru least )
I got pulled away as we were chatting earlier
Wondering why 5 helicopers fron ny state and nyc police were searching the waters

A Very Sad day
The small boat capsised..
Likely ran to quick into a wave that flipped it

Please
You and whoever you with in the years to come
Never Ignore BOAT SAFETY and COMMON SENSE
