And that is why marinas don't allow swimming or fishing from boat docks!

I saw that article the other day. I bet those swimmers must not have any idea what's happening to them.

That's something right there . I don't even think i would let kids in water when the boat lift is goin down ..... Better safe than sorry just goes to show u gotta think ..... Before something serious happens .....

Hep B is another danger, with all of those live-aboard boats with water going to them and no sewage pump-out.

There is electrical current in the water around docks' when the engine shows corrison'like it's been in saltwater all it,s life. But in fresh water!!!!! Needs to be fixed soon or cut power.
