Diving – the Dangers and How You Could Help

Diving – the Dangers and How You Could Help

09 May 2012

It’s a familiar sight – a stationary rib displaying a dive flag (either a red rectangle with a white diagonal stripe or a blue-and-white double-tailed pennant, the A or Alpha flag). Hopefully you will recognise these, know that there is a diver in the vicinity and keep your distance. But what if one of the divers is in ...

Life Jackets

01 May 2012

Boating gear and clothing changes frequently, according not only to new technology, but also to fads in fashion. Some people care what they look like, some don’t. Many invest in the most expensive clothing they can afford, either because they think it looks good or that they believe it is the best quality. Whatever your thinking is, there...

Fog and how to cope with it.

Fog and how to cope with it.

01 May 2012

Fog is damp, cold, uncomfortable and potentially dangerous! If you are at sea it increases your chances of running into some hazard, or of another vessel crashing into you. Even if you escape these risks you may simply get lost and not be able to find a safe harbour. So it is well worth considering how to forecast it, and how to deal with it wh...

Lighthouses – 1. From Ancient Times to Electrification

Lighthouses – 1. From Ancient Times to Electrification

17 April 2012

As an island nation, we in the UK are used to seeing lighthouses around our coasts, but have you ever stopped to consider when they were first built and how they worked in those early days? The purpose of lighthouses is obviously to mark dangerous coastlines, rocks and reefs and to aid navigation, especially at night or in misty conditions. ...

Flares – do you or don’t you?

Flares – do you or don’t you?

26 March 2012

Are you confused about the value of flares? I am. All the articles I read put forward such compelling arguments, some for, some against. As there is no legal requirement on what you should carry, all I can do is to try to classify these opinions and the reasons for them and leave you to make up your own minds whether you use them or not. W...

Fire on Boats

Fire on Boats

26 March 2012

Fire must be one of the most dangerous and feared accidents that could happen on a boat. It is perilous enough when it occurs on dry land, but when one is confined with it on board, it becomes even more terrifying. The obvious course of action is simple - do everything you can to prevent a fire on board . Four things are needed for combustion...

The Solent Forts

The Solent Forts

14 March 2012

The Solent Forts Approaching Portsmouth from the sea, early in my sailing career, I was most surprised to come across four large, round structures, sitting in the eastern Solent and the approach to Portsmouth harbour. I've sailed past them many times since then, but never really bothered to find out why and when they were built there and wha...

Kids – Keeping them Safe and Happy on the Water

24 February 2012

Whether you are an experienced sailor or a novice, it’s likely that the time will come when you have to make the decision – do you take the kids with you, or put your boating on hold until they are older? Like most things in life, there is no hard and fast rule, but with a bit of common sense, planning and give and take, there is no...

Spring Commissioning For Your Boat

Spring Commissioning For Your Boat

09 February 2012

The days are short and grey and the temperature around freezing. Spring seems a long way away and boating even further off. But you can use this time wisely and then you won't be caught napping when the finer weather and longer days call out to you to launch your boat. If you did winterise your boat, you will have saved yourself a lot of time ...
