Boat Issues

• Please report any comments you have on the condition of the boats.
  On this online form.
  
• Any significant breakages, wear and tear or missing parts should be raised with a Committee Member as soon as possible.

Safety.

• Consider your own abilities and the prevailing conditions before going afloat.
• Always bring weather appropriate clothing and wear a correctly fitted buoyancy aid.
• Never sail alone, always inform someone of your intentions.
• Do not sail onto Eels Foot Broad if not part of the organised activity or stay out on the water once the safety boat has been put away.

• Our aim is to keep all the boats in good condition and therefore available for your use, so please treat them as if they were your own.

…AND, please, leave them just as YOU would wish to find them! Thank you the RBSC Committee

The above instructions are here to help you and to ensure that all club boats are left in a clean and usable state ready for immediate use.
