Over the course of this past year over a hundred stories were collected, authenticated and where possible publication permission was sought and received. Whether boating in salt or fresh water, on a river or stream, the one common thread through all of our tales is the storyteller's new found respect for the value of wearing a life jacket. This book isn't about those statistics. It is also a time to thank the boating community, from the firemen who loan out free life jackets to the marina owners and camp operators who insist that all their customers wear PFDs. Thanks for practicing what we preach.
Life jackets save lives.
The proof is a real page turner.
