As the days get longer and
hopefully warmer, I am sure that our attention will turn toward the
water and boating. A well planned outing always results in a safer and
pleasurable boating experience. Remember to review your safety
checklist. Also, research your destinations. USPS has provided us with a
wonderful and fun tool called Boating Guide to America. It can be found
at www.boatingguidetoamerica.com.
This is a special website called a "wiki". It is written in a
collaborating fashion by a number of USPS members. It is a great way to
learn about areas that you may want to cruise. Information that may be
found there includes local history, docking facilities, lodging,
restaurants, and boat ramps. The website also provides click-on maps of
the area.
