WARNING
Wet decks are slippery.
You can be seriously injured if you slip and fall.
Wear slip-resistant footwear secured to your feet and
hold onto rails or boat structure.
•
Transfer gear and equipment by handing it from
a person on the dock to a person on board. You
can lose your balance and be injured if you
attempt to board while carrying equipment or
gear.
•
Distribute the weight of equipment and
passengers as evenly as possible to keep the
boat balanced.
•
Stow gear and equipment so that it is accessible,
but everything is to be stored in places so as to
prevent it from flying about if the boat encounters
rough water or weather.

•
Operator must instruct all passengers on
location and use of PFD's (See Section 1-
Safety, page 5 for type and usage).
•
Children less than sixteen (16) years of age and
all non-swimmers, adults as well as children,
must wear properly-sized PFDs at all times
when aboard.
•
ALL passengers should wear PFDs. By the time
someone falls overboard, it can be to late for
them to put on a PFD and fasten it properly.
This is especially true in colder waters, below
70
o
F, where survival time, before hypothermia
sets in, is measured in minutes.
•
If there are passengers not wearing PFDs, the
PFDs must be readily accessible. "Readily
accessible" means out of the storage bag and
unbuckled.
•
All throwable flotation devices (cushions, rings,
etc.) must be right at hand.

OCATION
•
Everyone on board must be told about the boat's
behavior from starting to getting up on plane.
•
Before the operator does any high-speed
maneuvers or rapidly accelerates or
decelerates the boat, passengers must be
warned to sit and hold on and must heed the
warning.
•
The operator may have to make rapid changes
in speed and/or direction to avoid a problem,
with little or no time for alerting passengers. It is
critical that all passengers be seated in the
designated seating areas and holding on to
prevent falling overboard or getting knocked
about in the boat at all times when the boat is
underway.
