Safe at sea

Every boat no matter how big or small, must have a skipper. The skipper is legally responsible for the safety of the boat and the people on board. The skipper is also responsible for complying with relevant rules and regulations.

 

Before you commence any boating activity we recommend you undertake a boating education course, such as Coastguard’s ‘Day Skipper’ or ‘Boatmaster’ courses, so you understand the ‘rules of the road’ on the water and have an appreciation of boat safety and best practice.
