    HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES STAFF ANALYSIS BILL #: HB 733 Airboats SPONSOR(S): Dean and others TIED BILLS: IDEN./SIM. BILLS: REFERENCE ACTION ANALYST STAFF DIRECTOR 1) Water & Natural Resources Committee Winker Lotspeich 2) Agriculture & Environment Appropriations Committee 3) State Resources Council 4) 5) SUMMARY ANALYSIS The bill addresses several issues relating to the operation of airboats. Specifically, the bill: • Amends s. 327.02(1), F.S., by defining the terms “airboat” and “muffler” for airboats. • Creates s. 327.391, F.S., providing for the regulation by the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWCC) of airboats and their operation and equipment. • Requires that airboats be operated in a reasonable and prudent manner and that airboats must not be operated in a reckless manner. • Requires that airboats have a muffler on their engine capable of adequately muffling the sound of the exhaust from the engine. • Provides that an airboat cited for a violation of the muffler requirement must show proof of the installation of a muffler before the airboat can be operated on the waters of the state. • Requires airboats to be equipped with a 20” by 20” orange flag flying at least 6 feet above the deck of the airboat and that failure to have the flag would be a violation constituting the reckless operation of a vessel. • Requires that airboats be operated and equipped in compliance with numerous provisions of Chapter 327, F.S., just as these provisions apply to all vessels. • Authorizes the adoption of local ordinances for the operation and equipping of airboats as long as the ordinances are not in conflict with the provisions of Chapter 327.

  • Teacher's Manual
    aquatic safety, science, and stewardship education program TEACHER’S MANUAL Dear Educators, June 30th, 2015 With thousands of people enjoying activities on Oregon’s waterways each year and rising demand for clean water resources, there is a need to educate people early about responsible waterway use. Humans and wildlife both need resilient waterways for health, safety, and survival. That’s why we have developed this new K-12 educational curriculum, Water Wits! This program aims to encourage awareness and responsible use of aquatic and marine resources. It goes beyond traditional boating and water safety education to include stewardship messages and scientific principles. It is designed to be interdisciplinary, academically rigorous, interactive, and student-led. We hope that by taking an integrated approach to thinking about water, this curriculum will spark a renewed interest in responsible waterway enjoyment for both educators and students. Water Wits addresses 3 pillars of aquatic literacy: Safety: what are the best practices for smart decision-making in, on, and around the water? Stewardship: how can we reduce our impacts and manage water resources for people and wildlife? Science: how do physics, engineering, ecology, and the social sciences explain and inform both of these? The curriculum includes 12 complete lesson plans, divided into grade units (Kindergarten-2nd Grade, 3rd-5th Grade, 6th-8th Grade, and 9th-12th Grade). All lessons are aligned to state and national education standards, including Next Generation Science and Common Core, across multiple subjects. Each unit contains 3-4 lesson plans with suggestions for how to adapt the activity to best suit your student.

  • Mobile Stuttgart Many Ways Lead Through the Stuttgart Region
    Press Release (Auto)Mobile Stuttgart Many ways lead through the Stuttgart Region Stuttgart is known as the cradle of the automobile. In 1883 Gottlieb Daimler invented the first fast-running, light engine for universal use, laying the cornerstone for its further development. And in the present day, too, the theme of mobility is still a key issue for Stuttgart's inhabitants in many different ways: The Mercedes-Benz Museum and the Porsche Museum have made the state capital a mecca for automobile enthusiasts from all over the world. Locals and visitors alike use many different means of transport each day, and learn about the history of mobility in various museums and during the tours offered by the Stuttgart-Marketing GmbH. At the "i-Punkt" Tourist Information there's also the so- called "m-Punkt" – the city of Stuttgart's mobility advisory service, which provides tips for residents and tourists on the most convenient mode of travel and the best route. In addition to its excellent ÖPNV public transport network, Stuttgart also scores with a wide range of electrically-powered transportation and sharing schemes, including cars, bikes or scooters. Why not hire an E-scooter to travel from one highlight to the next? Highlights Gottlieb Daimler's Birthplace The first fast-running, light engine for universal use was developed by Gottlieb Daimler, a baker's son who was born in 1834 in a half-timbered house in Schorndorf, near Stuttgart. Daimler's birthplace was acquired and restored by the Daimler-Benz AG and is today a museum and conference venue. Here, fans of this automobile pioneer will find treasures such as the legendary postcard sent by Gottlieb Daimler to his first wife, or his journeyman's piece.

  • VESSEL SUB-TYPES for USE with AUTHORIZED VESSEL TYPES* (Grouped by Authorized Types) – Approved by NASBLA Membership, Sept
    Standardized terms and definitions for five major incident report categories Original release, September 2013; updated release July 2020 (changes from 2013 list shown in red) VESSEL SUB-TYPES FOR USE WITH AUTHORIZED VESSEL TYPES* (Grouped by authorized types) – Approved by NASBLA membership, Sept. 3, 2013; approved with recommended revisions, July 31, 2020 Origins of the List. This updated terms and definitions product had its origins in a 2011-2013 collaborative effort led by a team of State and Associate members of NASBLA’s Engineering, Reporting & Analysis Committee (ERAC) and subject matter experts from the U.S. Coast Guard’s Boating Safety Division. The list of entries was reviewed and commented on over a period of months, and then approved by NASBLA’s membership—i.e., the States via their Boating Law Administrators—on Sept. 3, 2013, following an interim, online voting procedure authorized by the association’s bylaws. Four years later, the list of vessel sub-type entries and those of four other incident report categories† produced as part of the same effort were taken up again, this time in the context of a more comprehensive reporting project also involving the Coast Guard and the States with coordination by NASBLA’s ERAC. The Recreational Boating Incident Reporting Policy Project, set in motion in November 2017, resulted in over 100 consensus recommendations to inform the Coast Guard’s development of national reporting policies and procedures. Included in the array of recommendations were updates to the five terms and definitions lists as well as updates to other incident report data elements for national collection.

Narutowicza 11/12, 80-233 Gdansk, Poland; [email protected] (W.L.); [email protected] (D.P.); [email protected] (K.M.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 22 April 2020; Accepted: 14 May 2020; Published: 20 May 2020 Abstract: The development of modern technologies and their increasing availability, as well as the falling costs of highly efficient propulsion systems and power sources, have resulted in electric or hybrid propulsions systems’ growing popularity for use on watercraft. Presented in the paper are design and lab tests of a prototype parallel hybrid propulsion system. It describes a concept of retrofitting a conventionally powered nine meter-long vessel with the system, and includes results of power and efficiency measurements, as well as calculations of the vessel’s operating range under the propulsion of its electric motor. The concept of adding of a solar panels array was studied. Keywords: ship retrofitting; ship hybrid propulsion; energy efficiency; green shipping 1. Introduction Environmental protection is currently one of the absolute top criteria in numerous countries around the world. Legal limitations, as well as rising public awareness, result in a growing interest on the part of watercraft owners in electric propulsion systems characterised by increasingly stringent “zero-emission” levels. Intensive research and development activity has also been initiated by scientists from all over the globe, who concentrate on the subjects of hybrid propulsion [1,2], energy management [3–6], energy efficiency [7–9] and effective sources of power [10–16].
