As spring approaches, and preparations begin for launch, take a look at safety gear. Firstly, is everything aboard for your crew in working order or up to date? In addition, if something needs to be replaced, replace it with a new replacement?
Check life jackets (PFD’s) for tears. Also, clean or dry material and that can be stowed in a readily accessible location.
If whistles or PLB’s (Personal Locator Beacons) are fitted, do they work?
Have you considered manually inflating the automatic inflatable PFD’s?
Don’t forget: Test all Smoke, CO2, Gas, and High Water Bilge alarms.
