I thought he had been promoted to Captain, either last year or the year before. Or am I dreaming in his behalf?

I also wonder if last year's statistics may be down more due to the not so great summer weather than boater education. I know our boat use was down quite a bit last year over the 2012 season. Additionally, the Marine Patrol staff had been cut dramatically last year, if I remember correctly, and that could also account for a reduction is citations. Fewer officers on patrol equals less chances to catch the violators.
