LECANTO -- Pleasure boating is a fast growing sport. More than 100,000 new boats were sold last year alone.

Boating is also a sport that can be enjoyed by the entire family. New owners and skippers who are safety-minded take their families to basic boating classes especially designed for the beginning boater.

The Homosassa Flotilla 15-4, one of the area leaders in this endeavor, will conduct a "Safe Boating and Seamanship" course from 7 to 9 p.m. Mondays and Thursdays, July 9 to Aug. 2, at the Central Florida Community Campus, 3800 S Lecanto Highway.

Seating is limited so register early. Registration by calling the CFCC campus at 746-6721.
