And the rest of the story:
RESEARCH: Here are the results of a national research project done on adult boaters:
> Two-thirds say owning a boat has strengthened their family bonds.
> 89% of boat owners say the #1 reason for boating is to be outdoors.
> When compared with the general population boaters are happier with their sex lives.
> When comapred with the general population, boaters tend to be healthier.
Another research project (paid for by a boating industry association) explored the effects of boating on children:
> Children exposed to boating are more likely to particpate in athletics and outdoor recreation activities.
> By a significant margin, kids who boat are healthier than children who don't.
> Boating kids are less shy are more likely to be team players.
> Kids who boat are more self confident, more optimistic and more likely to be leaders than kids who don't boat.
> Families who boat spend more time together all year, even in cold winter months.
