DO NOT FISH/TOUR WITHOUT LIFE JACKETS

It has come to my attention that many local fishermen are taking tourists fishing and touring out in our Bay without having life jackets on board. This is VERY VERY DANGEROUS. Please do not do this. Please help tell all the local fishermen that they need to provide life jackets for all on board if they intend to make some pesos in this manner.

This is not just 'a good idea', it is essential for your safety. If there is any sort of accident or upset, you will probably not make it back to shore, even if you are a good swimmer in swimming pools. It has nothing to do with the distance you may be able to swim. It has to do with the currents in the ocean.
