Extractions: Commercial ships have doubled in size, waterborne commerce has tripled, and the number of small boats and recreational water craft has increased during the last 50 years. More than 95 percent of U.S. foreign trade (by weight) passes through U.S. ports and harbors. Half of all materials shipped through U.S. waters are hazardous. There are approximately 12 million registered recreational water vessels, an estimated 50 percent increase in the last 20 years. Although recreational boating deaths have decreased during the last 30 years, the number of accidents and injuries have steadily climbed. Not knowing the "rules of the road," or how to read navigational charts, can be just as dangerous as not using life jackets. There are designated "traffic lanes" shown on nautical charts for some waterways and coastal ocean areas. Large ships use these lanes to avoid collisions. A large freighter or tanker traveling at full speed can take miles to stop. Even at slower speeds, large ships take a long time to stop or turn. A boating or shipping accident doesn't hurt only the people directly involved. A seaside vacation, swimming, water sports even a walk on the beach could be ruined by oil or chemical spills. Harm to fish and wildlife could be immeasurable. Seafood could become more expensive or more difficult to find due to spills, collisions or ships running aground. The price of goods carried on large ships can increase, along with everyone's insurance rates, as a result of costly accidents.

Extractions: As tests are conducted by student volunteers, the information is recorded on a data sheet provided by the Great Bay Watch (NH) Water Quality Monitoring Program. Students then enter the data into the "Alice" software database using a Power Mac 5200. Data files are cross-checked by another student and the principal investigator prior to submission to the Wells (ME) Reserve. 3. Experimental design The Marshwood High School Water Monitoring Program was founded four years ago as a part of the Great Bay Watch Citizen's Water Quality Monitoring Program. Over 15 Great Bay Watch sites have been established in the Great Bay Estuary, and samples are collected from April through November. The objective of the Great Bay Watch is to establish a long-term database that will provide information about the state of the estuary and to increase knowledge and interest among its members and constituents about the importance of conserving it. The Marshwood High site is located on the Piscataqua River, and provides an opportunity for high school students to volunteer in a program with "real science" applications. 4. Research methods

Extractions: Boat Building Our aim is to provide affordable aluminum and steel boat hulls for those who want to do some of the finishing themselves thus realizing substantial savings. You can be cruising sooner rather than later. These are rugged off-shore proven hulls that are sea-kindly and easily driven. There are lots of them out cruising right now. As a matter of fact, the designer, Brent Swain , who is also a very experienced blue water sailor, just recently returned from the South Pacific in his own 31-foot bilge keel boat. Winston Bushnell is a well known blue water cruiser from British Columbia, Canada. Winston has sailed around the world, to most of the exotic places we just dream about. When he's not sailing his own boat, Winston delivers off-shore yachts for others, so he has experience on a wide variety of boats. You can be sure Winston knows what he's talking about when he says he prefers a Brent Swain designed boat. Winston is presently on his third Brent Swain designed boat. In 1996 Winston and two crew members took Winston's second Brent Swain designed boat on a 9,000 mile cruise from his home port in BC, north to Alaska, eastward through the famed North West Passage (ice floes and all), down past Greenland, up the St. Lawrence Seaway to the Great Lakes, then trailered it home. Crew member Len Sherman has a book out on the northern portion of the trip

Extractions: Time please! Shipping Minister announces boating breath tests In a written answer to a parliamentary question from Maria Eagle MP (Labour: Liverpool, Garston), Shipping Minister Keith Hill revealed that the government firmly intends to introduce alcohol and drug tests for commercial and recreational mariners, and in the field of aviation. Police will be given new powers to enforce the policy. Following is the full text of Maria Eagle's question and the Minister's reply: Q: Maria Eagle (Lab - Liverpool, Garston): 'To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions, what progress has been made in implementing measures to tackle alcohol and drug abuse in the maritime sector; and if he will make a statement.' A: Mr Hill (Shipping Minister): 'The Queen's Speech on 6 December outlined the Government's intention to draft a Safety Bill. We will use this opportunity to introduce a prescribed blood/alcohol limit for professional and recreational mariners with accompanying powers for the police to test suspects. We also intend to take permissive powers to allow testing for drugs. 'We propose to set a 80 milligram per 100 millilitre blood/alcohol limit for mariners of all types of civil waterborne transport in UK waters, including non-UK vessels. It will be illegal for mariners, on duty, on board any commercial vessel or fishing vessel to be above the limit or to be unfit to fulfil their duties due to being intoxicated through drink. In the interest of passenger safety on passenger vessels or ferries the limit will apply to off-duty crew having a safety critical function in the event of an emergency. Those involved in the navigation or propulsion of recreational craft while in motion and not moored will also be included.
