Life-Saving Rule Keeps Bass Anglers Safe on Lake Marion
A Harrisburg lawyer will testify on safety standards as BASS tournaments emphasize life jackets. William Overton and Clifford Craft survived 25 to 30 feet swells after their 15-foot boat sank during the South Carolina Invitational at Lake Marion. Craft lost gear valued at $4,500, and Overton credits the life jacket and a floating tacklebox for their rescue.

Strict safety rules define BASS tournament gear and starts
BASS enforces kill switch devices and bilge pumps on all boats. A Coast Guard based horsepower cap and daily safety inspections are in place. The start is now a ten second interval with flare guns removed. Harold Sharp cites safety as the priority while pros debate life jacket use. William Overton is noted for always keeping his life jacket on.
