- The two newest faces after me are Cynthia Dudzinski and Kristin Williams Also here from the staff are CAPT Johnson, of course, Pavlo Oborski, Carlin Hertz, and Tom Dardis.
- Training is open to all current grantees, and as seats are available to all others.
- We will be publishing an announcement in the FR for seven positions that will become vacant on January 1, 2019. The appointments are for three years, and applicants can serve for up to two terms. We encourage all who are interested to put in an application package. Departure of Dave Marlow, Richard Moore, Chris Stec, Tom Dogan, and Scott Brewen. I see that Bruce Rowe with Forever Resorts and Jim Emmons from Water Sports Industry Association are here tonight.
- This is the plan that drives the National RBS Program.
- However, JSI did circulate reports showing data from 2006 to 2017 (12 years) for 29 states: AK, AZ, CA, CO, FL, GA, HI, KS, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MN, MO, NC, OK, OR, RI, SC, TN, TX, UT, VA, SD, VT, WA, WI, WY.
- The wear rate was 13.8% before the mandatory requirement. For 0-12, high was 97.8% in 2010. Original was 94.3%. For 13-17, original was 47.8%. Highest was 88.2% in 2009.
- BUI is a leading contributor in 17% of boating fatalities. The CDC reports that the number for motor vehicle fatalities is 30%. So nearly one-third of all vehicular deaths involve alcohol. Hit rate went from 0.67% to 0.53%. Every five or six boats stopped is under the command of an intoxicated operator.
