Be Responsible For Safer Boating
BE RESPONSIBLE FOR SAFER BOATING
•
ALCOHOL and DRUGS -
The debilitating effects of alcohol and other
drugs reduces reaction time and detracts from judgment. The
combined effect of the outdoor environment… sun, heat, wind, rough
water, and noise can be more fatiguing than one would imagine and,
combined with drugs or alcohol, can be very dangerous.
•
GAME PLAN -
Tell a friend, neighbor or another family member where
you will be boating and when you plan to return. Be certain that this
individual has a good description of your boat and any other identifying
information that could be needed to help find you should an emergency
arise.
•
TOOLS and SPARE PARTS -
Many people have been stranded by
minor breakdowns that they could have repaired themselves. It is a
good idea to carry a few tools and common spare parts and to be
familiar with simple repairs that you can easily accomplish.
•
GASOLINE RESERVES -
Never push your boating range to the limit of
your gas tank capacity… one-third of the fuel to go, one-third to come
back and one-third to reserve.
•
GOOD BOAT KEEPING -
A clean boat is a safer boat. Take care to see
that rods, lures, nets, gaffs and other potentially harmful gear are
properly stowed so that it cannot blow or move around while the boat is
underway. Perform all maintenance and safety checks regularly. Secure
all icebox or cooler lids and place any trash or debris safely under cover
until the trip is over.
•
SPEED and SKILL -
The fast and powerful boat can require the
operator to exercise a high level of skill and attention to driving. Only go
as fast as your skill and good judgment dictates is safe. You are in
charge of the well being of your passengers and yourself. Be alert for
any hazards in the water and operate your boat only in such a manner
as would be appropriate for the water conditions. Be a good boating
“neighbor” and do not create a hazard or annoyance to others. The best
safety equipment is your own good judgment.
•
SKIERS
and
SWIMMERS -
Do not allow operation of the engine when
anyone is in the water near the stern of the boat. Never back up to a
down skier or anyone in the water. Never drive your boat directly behind
a skier.
