 As the American Waterways Operators (AWO) convenes itsSpring Convention & Annual Membership Meeting today through Thursday in Washington, D.C., at The Mandarin Oriental Hotel, today's "Quote of the Day" comes from AWO's Jennifer Carpenter, excerpted from her interview set to appear in the May 2016 edition of MarineNews.

 
"It is absolutely time to get Subchapter M published. My oldest son was born the week AWO’s Board of Directors voted to support the Coast Guard in seeking the statutory authority to establish a towing vessel inspection regime, and now he’s almost a teenager, as tall as I am and in need of a shave!"
