What should I pay attention to when taking a boat?

Pay attention to the following safety precautions when taking a boat.

① Overloading and lack of rescue facilities are the main causes of ship accidents, so don't take overloaded ships whose waterline is obviously lower than the water level or passengers are crowded, and don't take ships that lack rescue facilities and operate without a license.

② Take a boat by ticket. Not only do you not bring dangerous goods on board, but you should also actively cooperate with station personnel to check and stop dangerous goods. If anyone is found carrying dangerous goods on board, he should be urged to hand them over to the management for proper handling.

(3) When getting on and off the ship, be sure to wait for the ship to be stable, and wait for the staff to put the springboard on and off the ship before acting. After boarding the ship, you should obey the arrangement of the management and find your seat according to the sign. Don't be crowded, don't climb the mast at will, and don't cross the ship's rail to avoid accidentally falling into the water.

(4) When a passenger ship is sailing, don't frolic on it; When taking pictures, don't stand by the boat or stand on the edge of the deck overlooking the waves to avoid dizziness or falling into the water. Don't rush to the side of the boat when enjoying the scenery, so as not to cause the hull to tilt and accidents.

⑤ Smoking, illegal use of fire and excessive drinking are strictly prohibited in the engine room. If any situation affecting the safety of passengers and ships is found, it should be reported to the person in charge of the ship in time.

⑥ In case of accidents on the way, passengers should wear life jackets equipped on board according to the instructions of the staff, and don't panic, let alone run around, so as not to affect the stability and wind and wave resistance of passenger ships.

⑦ If you encounter bad weather such as fog and strong wind during the voyage, you should wait quietly and don't risk letting the crew sail to avoid accidents.
