Supplementary Sailing Insurances and Courses
To ensure a safe and enjoyable sail we draw the attention of our twilight sailors to the following items:
-
It is recommended all yachts carry a VHF radio on board and maintain a listening watch.
-
PFD's shall be carried on board for each person on the boat.
-
The Time Limit is 20:00. Any boat that has not finished or signed off by SMS by 20:00 is solely responsible for their own safety.
-
Skippers are reminded they are responsible for their crew.
-
Skippers should be careful not to exceed the number of passengers displayed on the builders plate and if this is not present, common-sense must prevail. Overloading is dangerous.
-
Skippers are reminded of their responsibility with respect to the consumption of alcohol.
-
It is recommended that skippers carry out a safety briefing including Man over Board drills prior to leaving the pen.
