Boat egasi davlat ro'yxati
Ehtimol Shotlandiyadagi Loch Ness Monster haqidagi afsonani eshitgansiz. Agar siz Arizona shtatiga tashrif buyurgan bo'lsangiz yoki shunchaki hayratga soladigan biror narsani eshitsangiz, Arizona shtatida kishi boshiga eng ko'p qayiq, Amerikaning boshqa davlatlaridan ko'ra ko'proq.
Mavjud ma'lumotlarga qaraganda, bu quritilgan kunlarda Arizona shtatining ba'zi ko'llariga o'xshab, bu katta, quritilgan mit kabi ko'rinadi.
Agar 2010 yilgi AQSh aholisining ma'lumotlariga qaraganda, AQSH Coast Guard shirkatidan olingan qayiq egaliklari va ro'yxatga olish statistikasi bo'yicha ma'lumotlarga qaralsa, MINNESOTA shtatining "10,000 ko'llar mamlakati" aslida eng ko'p qayiqqa ega.
2010 yilda AQShda qariyb 309 million kishi bor edi. O'sha yili 12,5 millionga yaqin ro'yxatga olingan rekreatsion suv kemalari bor edi, ya'ni bizning aholimizning qariyb 4 foizi bir xil o'yin-kulgiga ega. Arizonaning suzish vositalari, jon boshiga suv kemalari yoki qayiqqa tegishli bo'lgan boshqa choralar uchun Arizona ro'yxatining yuqori qismiga yaqin joylashganligi yo'q.

Bu mish-mishlar nimadan boshlandi?
Dengizga chiqish huquqiga ega bo'lmagan Arizona shtatining aholi jon boshiga Michigan shtatining "Buyuk ko'llar shtatidan" ko'ra, 1300 kilometrdan ziyod qirg'oq bo'ylab joylashgan davlatga nisbatan ko'proq qayiqmi?
2006-yilda, agar siz "jon boshiga qayiqlarning ko'pchiligini boshqa har qanday davlatga qaraganda" qidirgan bo'lsangiz, Internetda bu noto'g'ri ma'lumotni saqlab qolish uchun to'rtta manbani topasiz.
Bular: Britannica Encyclopedia, Arizona Savdo palatasi, Mesa Jamoatchilik Kolleji va AZCentral.com, Arizona Respublikasining onlayn-versiyasi, Arizonaning etakchi gazetasi. O'shandan beri bu manbalar noto'g'ri da'volarni bekor qildi.
Hozirgi kunda bu afsonalarni ro'yobga chiqaradigan rieltorlik kompaniyalari. Agar afsona uylar yoki ko'chmas mulkni sotishga yordam bersa, afsonalar doimo yashaydi.
Arizona sh. Va ko'llar
Arizona shtatida ko'plab ko'llar bor va ularning ko'pchiligi manmodadir. Va Arizona shtatining iqlimi tufayli, ko'llarning ko'pchiligi intervalgacha ko'l bo'lib, butun yil davomida suv ichmaydi. Arizona shtatining umumiy maydoni 0.32% suvdan iborat bo'lib, Arizona shtatini Nyu-Meksikadan keyin ikkinchi eng kam suv bilan ta'minlaydi. Arizona shtatining Kaliforniya va Nevada bilan chegaradosh Kolorado daryosi, Arizona suv ta'minotining 40 foizini oladi.
Kim qayiqchani tomosha qilmoqda?
AQSh Coast Guard shtatning har bir davlatiga qayiq ro'yxatga olishni kuzatib boradi. Qayiq yoki qayiq "suv kemasi yoki suvda tashish vositasi sifatida foydalaniladigan yoki foydalana oladigan boshqa sun'iy qobiliyat" deb ta'riflanadi. Bu ta'rifda qayiq, qayiq, qayiq va qayiqlar mavjud. Bundan tashqari, davlatning shtat bo'ylab qayiqqa egalik huquqi haqida shubhali dalillarga ega bo'lgan Arizona shirkati va baliq bo'limi bu mish-mishning haqiqat ekanini inkor etadi.
Bu shov-shuv haqiqat edi?
Aholi boshiga tushgan muddat kishi boshiga tushadi (yoki so'zma-so'z ravishda, boshiga to'g'ri keladi). Ya'ni, foiz stavkasi bo'yicha Arizona aholisi kattaligi bo'yicha qayiq ro'yxatga olishlarining eng yuqori foiziga ega bo'lishi kerak. Misol uchun, 2004 yili AQSh Arizona shtati bo'yi hududida ro'yxatga olingan qayiqlar soni bo'yicha davlatlar orasida 30-o'rinni egalladi. Aholining ulushi 50 foizdan 43-o'rinni egallab, aholining faqat 2,56 foizi qayiqqa ega.
