“Always be prepared. Always be found. Always come home.”<br />

Ditch Bag — There’s no “one size fits all...”<br />

On average, boat owners are a safety-conscious lot when it comes to outfitting and operating<br />

our primary vessels. From flares and life-jackets to EPIRBs and VHF radios, most of us try to<br />

anticipate Murphy’s laws and cheat Davy Jones prior to even leaving the dock, be it for an afternoon<br />

on the water or a multi-year cruise. That’s why I’m constantly amazed at the number of<br />

boaters who fail to properly outfit their dinghy to the same level of safety.<br />

Boating Safety<br />

• Stay hydrated and wear water proof sun-protection<br />

• Enough life jackets for every person on board<br />

• Comply with local boat operator licensing laws<br />

• Cautious of "No Wake Zones" sometimes called "Slow Speed Zones"<br />

• Towed boats - decontaminate your boat after usage to prevent the spread of invasive<br />

species into new bodies of water<br />

• Up to date on Navigation Rules: a crossing situation, a head-on situation, or an over<br />

taking situation<br />

• Know all the Navigational Aids: buoys, markers, lights,<br />

beacons, etc. and what the markings on each mean<br />

• Have a well-stocked Emergency Safety Kit on board...<br />

to include a Rescue Laser emergency signaling device & whistle<br />

Summer Fun<br />

Summer is in full swing, and by now you’ve probably been out<br />

on your boat at least a few times. But, have you tried something<br />

different—like, really different—while out cruising? Tow sports,<br />

fishing, boat camping, sightseeing by sea, dock-and-dine, sunrise<br />

& sunset cruises, going to a concert by boat and swimming<br />

are all fun, but it's what ever you prefer... time to mix things up!<br />

What's in your Emergency Kit / Ditch Bag?<br />

4) Flares—like accurate head shots during the zombie apocalypse, you just can’t<br />

have too many of them. SOLAS (Safety Of Life At Sea) flares are approved by the<br />

International Maritime Organization for use on the high seas and although more<br />

expensive, they burn brighter and last longer. In addition to pyrotechnics, newer<br />

Electronic Visual Distress Signals such as laser flares offer additional options.<br />

Pacific Yachting Magazine<br />

Dinghy Safety Essentials, May <strong>2022</strong><br />

Unlike pyrotechnic flares, the Rescue Laser Flare ® Green<br />

is non-flammable, environmentally safe and<br />

can operate continuously for 5 hours on a<br />

single long-life replaceable lithium battery.<br />

Brilliant green light makes it the most visible and<br />

preferred by Search and Rescue (SAR) professionals.<br />
