To remember before the boat trip
The lists below includes some tips on what to
remember to bring on any boat trip. The list can be
extended since the need for safety equipment varies
with the boat type and where or how it is used etc. We
recommend you ask a regional boat or sea safety
organization for more detailed maritime safety
information.
•
Take your chart out and study your planned route.
Calculate distance and fuel consumption. Listen to
weather reports.
•
Tell your friends/relatives about route plans if you
undertake a long journey. Remember to notify
changed plans or delays.

Inform everybody aboard about where the safety
equipment is located, and how it works. Make sure
that there is more than one person aboard who can
start and operate the boat safely.
