Safety Equipment
Federal and local laws require certain safety equipment to be on-
board at all times. In addition, responsible boaters carry other
equipment in case of emergency. Check with local boating
authorities for any additional requirements over and above the
federal requirements.
Fueling
Take care not to spill gasoline. If gasoline is accidentally spilled,
wipe up all traces of it with dry rags and immediately dispose of the
rags properly ashore. Spilled fuel may yellow the gelcoat finish and
damage gunwale trim.
