| - Triple check
the weather, safety equipment and your boat before you set sail - make
sure you have a correct lifejacket on board for each person and that
each person wears the life jacket at all times.
- Always carry spare fuel or a paddle,
water and food - just in case you are caught short.
- Sail within your limits and ability.
- Make sure everyone on board knows how to use the boat's safety
equipment.
- Ensure you have an appropriate means of communication should the worst
happen and you find you need to contact the Coastguard. |
