Man-overboard Prevention and Recovery (BS EN ISO 15085)

NOTE:
This boat does not require any specific device to re-board, due to its characteristics.
The boat, in light craft condition according to ISO 8666, has a minimum freeboard less than
500 mm, so needs only one handhold, suitably located to allow re-boarding, with consideration of
the boat's stability.
The recommended re-boarding method was demonstrated during the stability tests. Pictures are

Drink and drugs
Be sensible about drinking alcohol, as it will impair your judgement. Consider it as irresponsible for a
skipper and crew to be in charge of a powerboat under the influence of alcohol as it is for the driver of
a car. Beware of the side effects of any medication which may impair judgement and reduce the
effectiveness of the person concerned.
Environmental considerations
Polyethylene thermoplastic is fully recyclable, an important feature in a world where we are conscious
of our impact on the environment
Safe handling practices should be observed when handling fuel, oil and cleaning agents to avoid
contaminating the environment.
Remember, that wake and wash produced by your craft can cause erosion to shore lines. Always
observe the speed limits in restricted areas.
During refueling or re oiling operations on or off the water, please avoid any spillage, and ensure that
nothing is discharged into the water or drains
