At our January social, our member Winston Bumpus, who is President of the Recreational Boaters of California, gave us an overview of the status of recreational boating in California. There are several issues important to boaters being considered by the state legislature and various agencies and organizations. Included with this newsletter are the slides that Winston used in his presentation (RBOC IYFR Update). Take a few minutes to review and if you have any questions you can contact Winston directly at bumpus@rboc.org.
