The answer is capsizing. Most boating mortalities don't have anything to do with bad weather or dangerous sea conditions. They normally occur in smaller, open boats on inland waters during daylight hours when weather and visibility are good, the winds are light, and the water is calm. But in spite of these perfect conditions, passengers fall overboard and many boats capsize, causing over half of all boating fatalities.

Contrast the characteristics between anorexia and bulimia?
Lilit [14]
Anorexia is when one refuses to eat or eats as little as possible in order to maintain their ideal body, which is usually extremely underweight.
Bulimia, takes two forms, that are similar.
One is more commonly known as 'binging and purging', which means one will eat normally or excessively before throwing it all up to ensure that none is digested.
The other is that the person will force themselves to throw up after even the smallest of food consumption.
Both of these are serious, harmful mental health problems, and if you or anybody you know is going through these, seek medical attention immediately.
