Boating Checklists for sailors and boaters
Essential information for all recreational boaters going to sea in power boats and sailing yachts
Dag Pike’s Boat Checklists for skippers of power boats and sailing yachts is packed with essential checklists – from Passage Planning to Safety Briefing, Navigation to Safety Equipment.
On land we are all governed by a wide variety of rules and regulations that dictate almost everything you do. At sea the responsibility changes and the skipper is the one who mainly sets the rules and standards.
There is a lot for a boat’s skipper to think about and Dag Pike is a great believer in having checklists to make sure that nothing is missed.
In this app his selection of checklists cover the wide range of things that skippers have to deal with both in harbor before sailing and once at sea.
The app is very easy to use. Simply work through the items on the lists and you can be comfortable that you have covered the things that need checking before you set off.
