Coast Guard regulations state that any child 14 and under must wear a life jacket in a dinghy. It is a good idea for
EVERYONE to follow this rule.
The Hoist/Davit system is made by Weaver.

CRABBING & FISHING
Always check the fishing and crabbing requirements before you leave on your cruise. You will need a license.
Many areas are CLOSED to crabbing and fishing in certain months.
CRAB AWAY FROM THE BOAT! Lines can get wrapped around props. Fish-flavored cat foods with the pop-up
ringed lids work great for a nice neat way to bait the trap. After a couple hours/overnight, retrieve the crab trap.
Measure the crabs using the CRAB MEASURING GAUGE. Keep the male crabs (narrow ‘V’ on the belly) of
proper size (usually 6 ¼ inches across the carapace). Boil crabs about 12-15 minutes to cook.
After using, wash equipment thoroughly with fresh water.
