11.01.2022 To welcome in the start of 'Safe Boating Week' 26 Sept to 2 Oct - We say to all kayakers "Paddle Safe Paddle Smart": SAFE Paddling is S = Seaworthiness Seawort...hiness, in the broad sense, applies to the suitability of craft, equipment and apparel. It also applies to paddlers (their skill levels and their experience) when related to their specific paddling disciplines and the conditions in which they are conducted. A = Awareness To stay safe, paddlers must be aware of their own abilities and those of their paddling companions. They need to be aware of where they are and where they need to get to and the risks they will need to manage along the way. Safety conscious paddlers are aware that by being highly visible (e.g. wearing bright clothing) they are reducing the prospect of being run over by another, bigger, boat. They also are aware of other risks (such as the conditions, the environment, boating traffic, etc.) and the interconnection between them is vital for safe paddling. F = Fitness Mental and physical fitness are of paramount importance to safe paddling. It is important to realise that there are many variables associated with safe paddling but generally speaking the tougher the challenge the greater the level of physical and mental fitness required to stay safe. E = Exposure Paddlers are all exposed to conditions (both natural and man-made) that have the potential to cause injury or death. Safety conscious paddlers will always assess risks of exposure and adjust their paddling plans to ensure they stay within the bounds of safety. They are also aware of the strong interconnection of all the variables of exposure and how each one has the potential to adversely impact on another and thus dramatically reduce levels of safety. #WearALifejacket / #SafeBoatingWeek / Paddle Safe / Paddle Smart / #NationalSafeBoatingWeek
