We comply with the regulations set out in the Small Commercial Vessels (SCV) Code, 2021.

The Captain is responsible for using all reasonable means to make sure the Vessel is seaworthy before and during each voyage, protecting the Vessel and the Participants and Crew on board from hazards, and operating within legal limits.

We also carry a number of Personal Flotation Devices (PFDs) as additional equipment.

Participants are required to Wear a SOLAS life jacket when instructed by the Captain. We encourage the use of PFDs when underway, swimming, and using motorized and non-motorized water toys or equipment. If adult Participants decide not to wear a PFD, it is done so at their own risk.
