ton of his contribution to safe

Mr.. Bonner, Chairman of the
House Committee on Merchant Ma
rine and Fisheries, made the fol-
lowing talk:
Mrs. Bonner and I are most
grateful for this honor which has
been paid to me by receiving the
1861 Ole Evinrude Award. never
dreamed that 1861 would ever
commence so wonderfully. Maybe
now my better half will forgive me
for all the sleepless nights caus-
led her back in 1868 when / was
trying to steer the Federal Boat
ing Act of 1858 through the tnpre-
dictable legislative waters in Wash
ington.
We are also happy to be in New
York again at boat show time to
renew the many fine friendships
we have made in recreational boat
ing.
i AS you know, the Ole Evinrude
Award Is made annually by the
Evinrude Boating Foundation to an
individual, or group, for his or
their significant contributions to
recreational boating. In receiving
the 1861 Award as an individual,
! feel very real obligation to say
that my contributions to recrea-
tional boating could not have been
as successful without the help Of
many other persons and groups. :
/ want to publicly thank and
pay tribute to the National Asso-
citation of Engine and Boat Manu-
facturers, the Outboard Boating
Club, the Council of State Gov
ernments and the u. s. Coast
Guard for the advice, help and as
sistance they provided at all times
to me and my staff.
1t should be recalled that our
nationwide study Of the regula,
tory needs of recreational boating
and the subsequent legislation,
were the result Of the boating in
dustry coming to me. They first
saw the need for such q study,
and j agreed with them. / mention
how we got started on this whole
business because l want to pay
