How does that compare to one year ago yesterday? Is it typically busy during a Tuesday afternoon in June? Do you think the certification process has slowed down the influx of out of state boaters? Perhaps the weather's been just a little bit testy of late and people are holding off. Gas prices have risen, and the economy is still bad.
