Come home safely.
Conditions can change quickly. Every outing starts with the club safety plan, a suitable crew and equipment, and an honest assessment of the conditions.
Check conditions
Review wind, waves, tide and local hazards, and follow the club's decision on whether it is safe to launch.
Check the boat
Confirm buoyancy, bailing arrangements and safety equipment before every launch.
Prepare the crew
Use correctly fitted safety equipment, suitable clothing and the agreed communication plan.
Know your limits
Row only in conditions the boat and crew can manage, following club and local navigation rules.
