Let’s go Boating Way leam more about boating? The Allied Boating Association has some suggestions. First and foremost comes en- joyment. A knowledgeable boat owner or crew member derives far more enjoyment from the pastime than someone who gets , by with minimum knowledge. Next comes safety. The more you know about boating the safer you will be. Finally, know- ledge can save you money be- cause safe boating is less expen- sive, and you wlll plan how best to spend your boating budget. What is there to learn? That depends on your exper- ience. If you are in the contem- plation stage, the first order of business will be to decide on your kind of boating. Next on the order paper is what kind of boat will come closest to meeting your needs within the limitations of your budget. Next comes per- haps the most crucial subject—- what to look for when shopping for a boat. This brings us to a careful study of what we really need in the way of equipment for the boating activity contemplat- ed. Increasing your knowledge of boat construction and repairs will help make an intelligent decision as to how much of the maintenance you can do your- self, Reading need not be limited to the many fine books on the subject. (A recent count turned up over 300 books on boating currently in print.) Look over the various magazines on the news stands and then subscribe to the one that seems to best fit your needs. Don't overlook the excel- “lent publications available at nominal prices from both the Canadian and U.S. govérn- ments. In addition, many manu- facturers give away authoritative booklets on specialized subjects such as ropes, anchoring, fire extinguishers and repairs. The Allied Boating Association has information available through its members. For formal instruction you can take a low-cost course of- fered by the Canadian Power Syuadron, sailing clubs, local educational institutions and in some communities by commer- cial schools. Join a yacht club as an asso- ciate member, make friends with boat dealers and marina opera- + tors. People in businesses that cater to boaters are not there just to make money. They chose that particular business because they like boating themselves. Where is the best place to talk to some of these people? A boat show is an obvious choice be- cause you can talk to so many in ‘one place at one time. When is the best time to pursue your knowledge of boat- ing? On the one hand we might say anytime, but if it involves others sharing their knowledge. make it at a time when they are not too busy. Who needs all this knowledge? All of us in the boating fraternity benefit when we are all better informed.
