[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is with the dock stuff? Are docks more dangerous than other open water? I'm not a lake person so haven't had this experience. I did grow up going to lakes and never wore a vest, but it was the 80s.[/quote] It's pretty easy for a little kid to fall off a dock. There are no railings and water on all sides. Plus the water off our dock is dark and >20 ft deep. If a kid went under off the dock there is basically no chance you'd find them to pull them out. And kids are often in clothes and shoes on the dock, making it harder to swim if they fall in unexpectedly, unlike planned swimming where they're in a swimsuit.[/quote]
