1. Know and get to know about the limitations of your boat.

2. Always follow the rules of the road - make sure you know about the local rules and regulations.

3. Keepagoodandsharplookoutforpeopleandobjectsinthewater.

4. Ensure, that the anticipated wind and sea conditions do always correspond to the design category of the boat and

that you and your crew are able to handle the boat in these conditions;

5. Make sure your Crew and passengers are always safe, always keep an eye on them.

6. Neversailordrivetheboatwhentheoperatorisundertheinuenceofdrugsoralcohol.

7. Ensure that all crew receive suitable training, particularly with regards to the location and operation of safety

equipment such as life vests, life-rafts and distress signals.

8. Reduce your speed when there is restricted visibility, rough water, people in the water - boats, or structures nearby.

9. Doneveroverestimateyourownabilitiesandtness.Itiswiseandsensibletoconsultotherskippers,localau-

thoritiesorgovernmentdepartmentsaboutspecicinformation.

10. Train with your crew and all people on board regarding the important maneuvers at sea: Above all the MOB - Man

over board. Each and every person on board should be able to execute this maneuver autonomously - even the

most experienced boat-captain may be the one in the water to be rescued.

11. Havethecraftinspectedbyqualiedpersonnelatregularintervalsandwheneveracauseforconcernisraised

carriage of life saving equipment, licensing of the helmsman and respect for the environment.

13. Check the bilge water level, liquids such as water, sloshing in the boat do reduce the stability of the boat.

14. Regardlessofthecraft‘sseaworthinessanditscertieddesigncategory,protectionfromfreakseaandwind

conditionscannotbeguaranteed.Bewareofoffshorewindsandcurrents.Theability,experienceandtnessof

Information regarding bilge pumps

» The electrical bilge pumps may only be operated via a manual switch from the helm stand.

» The bilge should always be checked after launch. A small amount of water in the bilge is

normal. Large amounts of water or any signs of fuel or oil require immediate investigation.

Never pump fuel or oil overboard when your boat is in the water.

» Checkfunctionofpumpsregularly&cleardebrisfromtheirinlets.

» It is recommended that a bailer/bucket is carried aboard for emergency bailing purposes.

Ensure the bucket is protected against accidental loss.
