More often than not, boats sink while docked. Any number of factors
may contribute to these sinkings. There may have been a mechanical
failure such as a failed bilge pump or an electrical problem such as a
dead battery or tripped circuit breaker. Check your boat regularly if it is
docked for an extended period of time to make sure everything is in
order.
Hypothermia
If a person falls overboard, hypothermia may be an immediate concern.
Hypothermia means a person’s body loses heat to the water faster than
the body can replace it. If not rescued, the person will become exhausted
or likely drown. In general, the colder the water, the shorter the time for
survival. PFDs will increase survival time because they provide
insulation.
Collision
If a serious collision occurs, first check the persons on board for injuries.
Then inspect the boat to determine the extent of damage.
Prepare to help the other craft unless it places your passengers or
boat in danger.
If the bow of the other boat penetrated your boat’s hull, prepare
to plug the fracture once the boats are separated.
Shore up the hole inside your boat with a spare life jacket or
cushion.
While plugging the hole, shift weight to get the hole above the
water level.
If your boat is in danger of sinking, have all persons put on their
personal floatation devices.
If your boat has a radio, contact the U.S. Coast Guard or other
rescue authorities immediately (VHF Channel 16 or 22 CB radio).
Running
Around
I
f you run aground check everyone for injury and inspect damage to the
boat and propeller(s). If possible, shift weight of passengers or gear to
heel the boat while reversing engine(s). If towing becomes necessary, do
not attach tow line to deck cleats. These are not designed to take full load
of the boat. Robalo recommends using a commercial towing service.
WARNING:
When towing another boat or having your boat towed, make
sure the tow line is fastened securely to the bow or transom towing eyes.
Never attach tow line to deck cleat or anchor windlass. Cleat or windlass
may pull free from deck and cause serious personal injury or property
damage.
