Tips To Avoid And Prevent Boating Accidents
Make Sure There Is Adequate Safety Equipment On The Boat
Safety equipments like life jackets and other devices that will
help in floating should be easily available to everyone, as well as
a first-aid kit and emergency supplies. Every vessel should be
boarded with boat lights, a fire extinguisher and an anchor.
Maximum percentage of accidents occurs due to drowning or
due to absence of life jackets. Boat owners should offer life
jackets, and passengers should wear them.
Be Watchful And Vigilant
In 2011 the cause of 581 accidents mainly was operator
inattention. The boat owner and the passengers should always
keep their eyes on the water and pay attention to safe boat
operation. They should have complete focus on boat’s
movement, water and weather conditions and not be distracted
by passengers or other boat diversions.
Monitor Weather And Water Conditions Carefully
The Coast Guard assigns reasons for several accidents as
environmental issues such as weather, congested waterways,
dam problems, missing navigation aids etc. Before heading out
for a journey you should check the weather report and report on
water conditions. If you doubt the weather conditions you should
return to store as soon as possible.
Load Passengers And Gear Carefully
The problems related to loading passengers and gear is also
severe. These problems included improper anchoring, improper
weight distribution, overloading the boat. To avoid capsizing and
other accidents be sure to follow guidelines for your boat and to
load the vessel carefully.
