An essential part of planning is to set the route to the fisheries and mark it in the navigation record each time you leave the centre.
In the event of an engine failure, it is vital to stay calm and drop anchor (to prevent drifting towards the rocks), immobilising the boat until help from the centre arrives by boat.
If possible, raise the engine up to prevent damage to the propeller and the shaft.
During fishing, the hirer should at all times stay in communication with the host by radio or phone.

They should behave in a reasonable manner and assess the weather conditions on departure and during fishing. During the windy or foggy conditions, due care and responsible approach will translate onto a pleasant stay on the fisheries.
