The state of the sea, currents, the strength of the wind.
Other boat movements
Manœuvres in port
When passing through mooring areas.
Obey the rules of priority as defined in the rules of the road and imposed by the
COLREG
Ensure that you always leave enough room for stopping or manœuvring if necessary
to avoid a collision
Respect speed limit zones

near other boats
WARNING
You must fit your boat with grab lines. Fixing points are provided on the deck.
Refer to your boat's deck fittings drawings.
The stability of your boat was designed taking into account the boatbuilder's specification.
Any alteration to on-board weight distribution (for example: the addition of large equipment,
changing the engine etc.) can affect the stability, trim and performance of your boat.
Towing a boat causes a significant extra strain that will have an unfavourable effect on the
stability of your boat.
