The cumulative number of water sport and boating-related deaths from 2015 to 2019 varied widely from month to month. The number of reported fatalities or missing persons peaked in the summer, particularly in August with nearly 140 fatalities. However, these figures must be weighed against the number of interventions by the regional operational surveillance and rescue centers (CROSS). The number of sea rescue operations is also much higher during the summer period. The number of deaths per intervention is higher in January than in August.
