Keep tools and spare parts in good condition. Replace parts removed from spare parts kit. Most
importantly use U.S. Coast Guard approved or marine certified parts where applicable. Any
condition found requiring corrective action should be serviced by a qualified repairman.
EMERGENCIES
While boating, unpleasant situations may develop. Before emergency situations materialize you
should prepare yourself to cope with them, whether they happen aboard your vessel or
someone else’s. Prepare a game plan for specific situations that may occur such as inclement
weather, collision, fire, man overboard or collision, to give you the confidence and ability
necessary for an emergency.
Storms
Getting caught in severe weather is hazardous. The best advice for boaters in
bad weather is to STAY HOME. Check with local weather stations, the U.S.
Coast Guard, or National Weather Service broadcasts for the latest conditions.
(162.4-162.55 MHz) We recommend you check the weather not only before but
periodically while you are boating, as weather conditions can change rapidly. If a
storm approaches a) return to port or seek safe harbor immediately; b) make
sure all persons aboard are wearing a PFD; and c) reduce your speed and head
into the wind. When a lightning storm advances certain safety precautions should
be taken. Dock the boat and seek shelter on land. If this is not possible seek
refuge inside the boat until the storm has passed. Stay out of the water! Lightning
will seek a ground when it strikes and may pass through metal components if it
hits your boat. Avoid contact with metal parts of the boat under these conditions.
Fog
If you encounter fog, set a course using your compass and navigational chart.
Reduce your speed. Have everyone aboard act as lookouts to prevent collisions.
