Children Should Be Taught Safety if vnnrs is a boatine family with some small fry mariners in the crew, it's a good idea to leach the young ones a few simple rules as well as do's and don'ts when they first come aboard the family boat. First and foremost, make it a hard and fast rule that the vounger children must wear life preservers every second they're in the boat. The new life jackets designed for kids are light and colorful. The youngsters will get used to wearing them and your peace of mind will benefit. F.ven when thev get older, the children should wear their life jackets until they know how to swim well. "Foolin around" has its place in the backyard, but not on the water. Explain to the kids that confined deck areas don't permit them to cut their customary capers. Ask them to walk, not run; fish, not light. Even tots surprise their par ents with how quickly they absorb many bits of nautical lore. Encourage this; knowl edge of the water is the key to safe boating. " )) rl V' r"' v v - 1 L ki-i M i'L.- BEACH STYLES-Just imagine, these two styles are ai-tu-allv on" sw.m suit ensemble.
