Please find herewith series of checklists. For your safety.

Please note that:

 

- It is about safety at sea, meaning it is about do's and don't prior to leaving the docks during the trip or when shutting down after a trip. We are aware that there are things that might be listed double,

 

- This is only meant to be as a recommendation and not meant to be as the one and only list of actions you should take in order to be on the safe side. There are and there will always be other actions, measurements, precautions you can take prior to or during your nautical endeavours,

 

- Our approach is based on awareness with regard to safety issues. We are not trying to influence buying behaviour. However, greater awareness might trigger such behaviour. Therefore we maintain a neutral position in our recommendations. We avoid referral to specific products and/or brands.
