Medical Emergency
Every second counts when there is a medical
emergency. Boaters must have proper training and take
necessary preventive measures to properly assist in
times of need.
•
Someone onboard should know fi rst aid. First aid
training is available through the Red Cross.
•
No one should act as a doctor if he/she not properly
trained.
•
Keep a fully stocked fi rst aid kit onboard at all times.
•
Always have dry blankets on hand to protect against
hypothermia.
Equipment Failure
•
Prevent failure of steering, propulsion and control
by having the yacht maintained and checked
periodically.
•
Radio for help or signal with fl ags and wait for help if
the systems fail.
If a system failure occurs and there is no immediate
danger, you can try to troubleshoot or identify the
problem fi rst before calling for assistance.
Radio Communication
(U.S. Only)
It is the yachter’s responsibility to obtain a radio operator’s
permit and to follow and understand proper rules and
procedures. Private yachts are not required to have a
radio onboard at all times. However, if a radio is available,
tune it to channel 16 unless the channel is actively in use.
Channel 16 is the frequency for emergency calls or initial
calls between yachts. Once contact is established on
channel 16, visit the U.S. Coast Guard Navigation Center
website (see
“Resources” on page 15
for website)
or go to a different unused channel.
For more information on radio communications, see
Chapman Piloting’s publications.
Distress Signals
The yacht operator is required, by law, to provide
assistance to a craft in distress, as long as your life or
yacht is not put in harm’s way in the process. In the
United States, Good Samaritan laws protect the public
from liability incurred while giving aid.
