Free T-Shirt for Passing Vessel Safety Check during Safe Boating Week


Wednesday, April 27, 2005


LOG NEWS SERVICE - West Marine has joined forces with the U.S. Power
Squadrons and the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary to help promote Safe =
Boating
Week, May 21-27.=20

Boat owners who pass a vessel safety check during Safe Boating Week will
receive a coupon for a free T-shirt at any West Marine or Boat U.S. =
store,
while supplies last.=20


"We are proud to partner with the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary during Safe
Boating Week. At West Marine we encourage our customers to have annual
vessel safety checks so they can boat with confidence," said Peter =
Harris,
chief executive officer of West Marine.=20


The Vessel Safety Check is a free bow-to-stern safety inspection by a
qualified member of the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary or United States =
Power
Squadrons. It's the best way to learn about potential problems, and =
there
are no citations or penalties.=20


Vessel Examiners provide boat owners with a copy of the vessel safety =
check
form, allowing them to make the recommended safety improvements at their =
own
discretion.=20


"In addition to assuring a vessel's compliance with federal, state, and
local safety requirements, a vessel safety check gives boaters an
opportunity to get information on safety equipment, safe boating =
procedures,
and other security issues," says Peter Urgola, department chief of =
vessel
examinations for the Coast Guard Auxiliary.=20


"It's also important for a boat owner to understand that we're not =
involved
with issuing citations," says Ronald C. LaPlante, chairman of the USPS
vessel safety-check committee. "If distress flares are out of date, as
example, we simply point it out to the owner and suggest that they be
replaced."=20
