Safe summer ahead!
Memorial Day is just around the corner. While the holiday honors those who died serving in the country’s armed forces, the date is also considered the unofficial kickoff of summer.
This year, Memorial Day is right after National Safe Boating Week (May 19th to 25th). If you are planning to take advantage of the long holiday weekend by heading out on the water, be sure to have your safety gear in check. Make 2018 a safe summer with this new gear.
There’s no time like the present to see the newest safety gear on the market, ranging from life jackets and floats to flares and fire extinguishers. All are lifesaving and also necessary to pass inspection with the USCG.
