Fall Boating Tips<\/h3>\n
\n

Going to extend your boating into the Fall?<\/p>\n

Here are a few points to consider.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Check the Weather<\/h4>\n

\"\"Colliding warm and cool air masses in the Fall cause conditions to change quickly. Autumn storms can approach fast and unexpectedly. Check the weather before heading out, check it during your trip and keep a watchful eye out for approaching storm fronts.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Dress for the Water Temperature <\/h4>\n<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
\n

On warmer days resist the urge to wear summer clothing. Dress in layers that can be easily removed or added \u2026and make sure that your lifejacket can fit over your layers. The water is getting colder, and a sudden fall overboard can be deadly.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

Have Lights<\/h4>\n

\"\"Darkness comes earlier each day during the Fall. Don\u2019t get surprised by it. Make sure your navigation lights are in working order and your emergency flares are not past their expiry date.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Carry a couple of waterproof flashlights to help you unload at the dock or ramp after dark \u2013 and be sure to pack extra batteries.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

Plan Ahead<\/h4>\n

\"\" There will be fewer boats on the water at this time of the year, so don\u2019t depend on your fellow boater to help you out if you run into trouble.<\/span><\/p>\n

\nLeave a float plan and carry a VHF radio or cellphone. A VHF radio can be used to call for help in places where your cellphone has no signal.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Wear Your Lifejacket<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
The gasp and panic as the result of a sudden fall into cold water can be deadly. A lifejacket will keep you afloat and provide some thermal protection as you deal with the situation.<\/span>
<\/br><\/div>\n

<\/br>\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n

<\/br><\/p>\n

Fuel up Before You Go<\/h4>\n
\n
\"\"Many fuel docks close early during the Fall season. Don\u2019t assume you can fill up at your destination for the trip home. Get informed and manage your fuel.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/br><\/p>\n

Fall can be a beautiful season to go boating. Remember these tips and you\u2019ll make every trip a round trip.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
