| Raftup Safety |
| |
|
| |
Glass containers should not be use on
boats. |
| |
|
| |
Skippers should frequently check their boat for hazards
and for anything that can be tracked to other boats by foot traffic.
|
| |
|
| |
Any real or perceived unsafe condition on or around
a vessel should be immediately brought to the attention of the skipper
and/or crew. |
| |
|
| |
From dusk until dawn, the vessel with the highest
mast and both outside vessels in each raft should display anchor
lights. |
| |
|
| |
In the event of a medical emergency Coast Guard dispatchers
and local 911 operators will be aware of our group, its location
and the closest vehicle and helicopter access. |

|
| Raftup Etiquette |
| |
|
| |
Guest moving about rafted vessels should use care
not to stress equipment not intended as a foot step or handrail. |
| |
|
| |
Sand is an enemy of boats, small and large. When
accepting a dinghy ride from shore to a boat always ensure your
feet, shoes and person are free of sand, mud, dirt and trash. |
| |
|
| |
When moving about on rafted vessels take care not
to track anything other than clear water between docks, boats or
dinghies. |
| |
|
| |
Do not use a head on a boat other than your own without
the host’s permission. |
| |
|
| |
Guests who spill food or drinks on a boat should
thoroughly clean the area and should advise the skipper of the accident. |
| |
|
| |
Audio output should not be enjoyed by adjacent boats
without their permission. |
| |
|
| |
Observe appropriate ecological concerns and bring
back more trash than you take. |
| |
|
| |
Vessels departing an event should not leave jettisoned
crew behind for others to deal with. This is in poor taste and could
constitute a violation of the Clean Water Act. |
