Boat Safety Equipment

Your boat safety equipment can be the difference between life and death in an emergency situation. For this reason, it must be well maintained, in good working order, and carried on board at all times!

Your boat safety equipment includes: 

  • Bailing devices
  • Manual and electric bilge pumps
  • An anchor
  • A manual propelling device (oars/paddles)
  • An axe
  • A repair kit
  • A life buoy
  • Fire extinguishers
  • A re-boarding device (ladder)

It’s a good idea to store all your safety equipment in a duffle bag or container. Keeping it readily accessible and available ensures you’ll find it when you need it most!
