GALVESTON, Texas — U.S.
Coast Guard officials, alarmed by an
increased number of drunken recre
ational boaters, are launching a cam-
E aign to get weekend captains to
:ave their Deer coolers at the dock.
“My gut feeling is that a good por
tion of the boating accidents we in
vestigate are alcohol-related,” said
Lt. Cmdr. Paul Foreman, senior in
vestigating officer of the Coast
Guard’s Marine Safety Unit in Gal
veston.

Officials said the federal agency is
launching its boating safety summer
campaign this week. Many involved
in policing the waterways said the
E roblem threatens to spur licensing
Tgislation for the sport.
Coast Guard officials say their
files document serious accidents and
fatalities that were or may have been
caused by alcohol use.

In one case, a 16-year-old boy who
had been drinking whiskey with two
companions in Dickinson Bay was
killed. A powerboat pulling a skier
roared menacingly close to the
youths’ plywood boat, tipping the
smaller craft and tossing two of the
boys into the bay.
Authorities said the victim, known
as a good swimmer, struggled as he
tried to swim ashore and then went
under, only yards from the boat.

Searchers found his body two
hours later. An autopsy revealed a
large amount of alcohol in the
youngster’s blood system. The cause
of death was listed officially as acci
dental drowning.
Officials of the Texas Parks and
Wildlife Department, the primary
state investigative arm in marine
safety, said 74 people died as a result
of boating accidents in 1984.

Jeffe Palmer, a Parks and Wildlife
Department spokeswoman in Aus
tin, said that 77 deaths were directly
attributed to alcohol use.
Palmer said Texas has averaged
more than 90 boating deaths an
nually since 1979. She added that
Texas ranked fourth nationally last
year in the number of registered rec
reational boats.
“But you have to understand that
sailboats and many other small craft
do not have to be registered,” she
said. “And you look out at any of our
lakes on any weekend and you’ll see
a large number of sailboats. Most of
them have somebody drinking.”
The state agency is coordinating
its summer anti-drinking campaign
with the Coast Guard, Palmer said.
