1.15 SAFETY EQUIPMENT

Life Vests
Keep a proper amount of approved life vest on board for
each crew.
Flares
Your yacht to be equipped with a minimum of three
day/night flares.
Medical Kit
A basic medical kit is a wise investment for any boat owner.
Suggested items includes: motion sickness pills, aspirin,
bandages, etc. We recommend that you personalize your
medical supplies for yourself and your crew specific needs. First
aid kits are available at most marine stores. Consult your
physician for his recommendations, if you are planning a voyage
away from medical facilities. A first aid procedure book is a
necessity.
Other Tooling
A varied arrangement of tools is, again, a wise investment
to have on your boat. Tailor your toolbox for the conditions that
you cruise. For local cruising, with professional help just a call
away, you only need a small array of tools. However, for long
range cruising, a more extensive supply of tools will be needed.
Your mechanic may be helpful in suggesting tools required tools
required for your particular engine installation.
