Safety & VHF Radio
Responsible boating requires careful preparation for emergency situations. What to do in case of an accident, fire or leak? What to do if a crew member has fallen overboard or is injured? Good seamanship also includes checking the safety equipment of the boat periodically. If distress signals date back to the year 2000, inspection stickers on the fire extinguisher are no longer recognizable and the first-aid kit is half-empty, immediate action must be taken. The safety equipment should be adapted to the size of the boat, the persons on board and the sailing area. …
… In the same time it should always be maintained according to the regulations. Carrying a reliable VHF radio, whether handheld or built-in VHF, ensures that help can be called for in an emergency situation.
