• Make sure you have signal kits and flare guns aboard, and they are current and in good operating condition.
• Be sure you have sufficient water and other provisions for the planned cruise.
• Leave a written message listing details of your planned cruise with a close friend ashore (Float Plan). The
float plan should include a description of your boat, where you intend to cruise, and a schedule of when
you expect to arrive in the cruising area and when you expect to return. Keep the person informed of
any changes in your plan to prevent false alarms. This information will tell authorities where to look and
the type of boat to look for in the event you fail to arrive.
• Check the amount of fuel on board. Observe the “rule of thirds”: one third of the fuel for the trip out,
one third to return and one third in reserve. An additional 15% may be consumed in rough seas.
• Check the water separating fuel filters for water.

fumes.
