Useful Tips

Safe & Carefree Boating Experience

Boating is an unforgettable experience, but the sea demands respect. To ensure your safety, always follow the essential navigation rules and pay close attention to the guidelines below.

Before Departure

🔹 Briefing & Preparation: Carefully listen to the instructions given by our staff. Feel free to ask any questions you may have.
🔹 Safety Equipment: Check that all life-saving and fire-fighting equipment is in place.
🔹 Passenger Safety: Children and non-swimmers must wear life jackets at all times.
🔹 Communication: Ensure you have a fully charged mobile phone with you in case of an emergency.

Starting the Engine

✅ Lower the engine into the water using the “trim down” button.
✅ Attach the “quick stop” safety cord to your wrist.
✅ Ensure passengers are seated properly and the weight is evenly distributed.
✅ The gear lever must be in neutral before you start the engine.
✅ After starting, check if water is coming out of the telltale – this indicates proper engine cooling. If no water is flowing, turn off the engine immediately and contact us.

During Navigation

⚠️ The boat operator must always be aware of sea conditions, swimmers, and marine traffic.
⚠️ Maintain a safe distance from the shore and swimming areas.
⚠️ Before anyone enters the water, make sure the anchor is securely set and the engine is turned off.
⚠️ Avoid sharp turns and dangerous maneuvers.
⚠️ When approaching the shore, reduce speed to a minimum and, if the water is shallow, lift the engine (“trim up”).
⚠️ Only use the anchor when you can see the seabed – avoid dropping it in deep waters.

Anchoring & Mechanical Checks

⚓ Dropping & Retrieving the Anchor

Do not throw the anchor forcefully – lower it gradually.
Ensure the anchor rope does not get tangled with the propeller.
Drop the anchor only when the boat is completely stationary.
Once the anchor touches the seabed, release extra rope and secure it firmly.

🔧 Engine & Propeller Monitoring

Regularly check the telltale water flow.
If you hear unusual noises or feel vibrations, contact us immediately.

In Case of Emergency

🆘 Stay calm and have all passengers wear life jackets.
📞 Contact the company or the coast guard at 108.
🛟 If someone falls overboard, use the life ring.
🚤 Do not abandon the boat unless there is an immediate threat to your safety.

✨ Enjoy your boat trip safely! 🚤🌊
