Boaters get advice

Mariners are being encouraged to check their boats on a regular basis during the winter months.

Yesterday the Marine Police issued a reminder as well as several checks that boat owners should be doing throughout the colder months, including:

• Battery systems kept in good condition and fully charged to ensure the bilge pumps work.

• Remove any valuable items or gear from the boat.

• Moorings and bridles should be checked to ensure integrity and security of the boat during winter storms and gales.

• Ensure vessels are properly secured before any inclement weather. Do not do risk this during a storm.

• If off the Island the boat owner should organise for someone to check the boat while away.

• Consider hauling the boat out of the water during the winter season if possible.
