As experienced boaters, we know firsthand that many problematic issues that occur on a sailing trip can be prevented with the proper safety measure, and Boatsetter is here to provide the information you\u2019ll need,\u00a0 from the optimal condition of your boat\u2019s equipment to the tips that can aid you in the moment of need.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Good_Preparation_is_Half_the_Work\"><\/span><strong>Good Preparation is Half the Work<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-18703\" src=\"https:\/\/discover.boatsetter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/boat-equipment.jpg\" alt=\"boat equipment\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.boatsetter.com\/boating-resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/boat-equipment.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.boatsetter.com\/boating-resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/boat-equipment-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You might\u2019ve wondered <\/span><span style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/boatsetter.com\/boating-resources\/is-your-boat-ready-for-hurricane-season-hurricane-preparedness-tips-for-boat-owners\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">how to prep your boat for a hurricane<\/span><\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Make sure your boat is in a good state by getting a safety check every once in a while. Pay special heed to your ventilation, navigation lights, and fuel tanks. Next, you should take care that you have all the <a href=\"https:\/\/boatsetter.com\/boating-resources\/boat-safety-equipment-list\">safety equipment<\/a> on board. For example, a pre-departure checklist is a perfect thing to have. Life jackets, for example, are a must for all passengers. You should have sound-producing devices for the boat, such as an air horn, flares, similar distress signalers, and at least one fire extinguisher. While you\u2019re sailing, make sure you have at least one anchor set up and bent-on to your anchor line. Other than that, you should prepare a few extra dock lines for unusual situations and carry at least two fenders for docking or in case of towing. And last but not least, before sailing out, but after you make sure you have all of the physical items in place, you should check the weather forecast.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where_to_Get_the_Best_Weather_Forecast\"><\/span><strong>Where to Get the Best Weather Forecast<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-18704\" src=\"https:\/\/discover.boatsetter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/weather-forecast.jpg\" alt=\"weather forecast\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.boatsetter.com\/boating-resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/weather-forecast.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.boatsetter.com\/boating-resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/weather-forecast-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For those boating in the United States of America, the <\/span><span style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.weather.gov\/mfl\/marine\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">National Weather Service<\/span><\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is always a good choice, providing accurate forecast and warnings for all regions of the U.S. <\/span><span style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.passageweather.com\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">PassageWeather<\/span><\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a simple and functional site that collects its data from services all over the world and provides its users with easily accessible maps of everything you might need, from surface winds to wave height.

Ensure all of your passengers put on their <a href=\"https:\/\/boatsetter.com\/boating-resources\/life-jacket-types\">life jackets<\/a> and are all in the cabin if you have one, and stay low near the center of the boat if there isn\u2019t one. Slow down, but don\u2019t stop completely. Turn on the <a href=\"https:\/\/boatsetter.com\/boating-resources\/boat-navigation-lights\">navigation lights<\/a> and if there\u2019s fog, sound your horn. Close all windows, hatches, and doors to make sure the boat doesn\u2019t fill with water. If it does start happening, prepare to remove water by bailing. If the storm that\u2019s approaching is actually a thunderstorm, stay away from all metal objects and turn off all electrical devices. To determine how many miles away it is, you can count the number of seconds between the flash of lightning and the clap of thunder and divide the number by five.
