Life Jackets Save Lives
Announcements on NOAA Weather Radio All Hazards |
Approximately 500 people drown each year from recreational boating accidents, so we've teamed up with NOAA and the National Safe Boating Council to remind you to "Wear It!" when you are on the water. Here are some links for you to learn additional information about boating safety.

Safety
is a primary concern in the cruise industry. One of the first things
you'll do once you are onboard the ship is a mandatory safety drill
which includes locating your life jackets and proceeding to a muster
station for further instructions.
When
you put your life jacket back away in your stateroom, that doesn't mean
you forget about safety for the rest of the cruise. Instead, that is
the start of paying attention to safety. You may participate in some
shore excursions that include water sports, sailing on small boats, etc.
Be sure to wear your life jacket during these excursions.
We thought it would be fun to post some of your pictures in life jacket attire, so we've started a Safe Boating Photo Album on Facebook that you can add your pics to. Even if you don't send us one of your pics, check out the photos that are posted. You can also share your pics via Twitter.
