Figure 1.--Boating is a popular activity, especially for boys. This boat looks to a rental boat at some kind of goutist attraction. I'm not sure when the photograph was taken, probably the 1980s.

Boating is another popular activity for boys. Girls also enjoyed boating, but boys seem much more interested. Most city boys got their boaring experiences at camp or if wealthy at summer cottages. There are quite a variety of boats involved here: canoes, motorbosats, rafts, rowboats, and saillboats. Some boys used boats fir fishing. Other activities are associated with boating, including diving and water skiing. But for many boys boating was popular just for the fun of being on the water.
