Mar 4, 2008 Jeff Smith
"Yesterday's follies will surely be tomorrow's repeats." That principle, quoted from Boat Smart Chronicles, lies at the heart of Tom Rau's recent book on boater safety. With a storyteller's approach, Rau recounts more than 200 boating mishaps on Lake Michigan and follows many with a "Boat Smart Brief," which provides the lesson learned. Rau is a retired Coast Guard officer who served 27 years, many on Lake Michigan. Seaworthy Publications, $19.95. boatsmart.net/book.
