• Account for everyone on board and check for
injurys.
• Have everyone put on PFDs.
• Stay with the boat.
• Signal for help.
• If a leak patch is attempted, it should be done
from the outside.
• In the event of a collision, you are required to
file an accident report. Contact a state
enforcement agency or the nearest Coast Guard
office. If you are boating outside of U.S. waters,
consult the nation you are visiting for accident
reporting requirements.

ROUNDING
In the event of running aground:
• Check for leaks. If water is coming in, stop the
intake of water before attempting to get the boat
free.
• Inspect for damage to the hull, propulsion and
steering systems.
• Determine if the tide, wind and current will drive
the boat harder aground or will help to free it.
• Determine the water depth all around the boat,
and the type of bottom (sand, mud, rocks, etc.).
If it can be done without exposing persons to
risk of injury, the boat should be moved away
from hard obstructions and toward open water
with soft ground.
• Do not attempt to have your boat towed by other
than a trained and competent service, such as
the Coast Guard or a salvage company.
Recreational craft are not designed to tow other
recreational craft.
