7 Lake Purdy Rowing Association Safety Guidelines This document is not an all-inclusive treatment of rowing safety, but is intended to guide members and guests in assuming responsibility for their own safety. LPRA members are expected practice and promote safe, responsible rowing. LPRA assumes no responsibility, either expressed or implied, for the personal safety or welfare of any person. Only LPRA members and guests of an LPRA member are allowed to use LPRA equipment and facilities as provided in the House Rules. When a launch is in use, it should is recommended to be supplied with a cell phone, first aid kit, tool kit, fire extinguisher, flashlight, whistle or megaphone, and paddle or oars. Scullers in doubles or singles should always have a cell phone on board, preferably in a waterproof container secured to the boat, with the Fishing Office phone number (( ) programmed into the contact list. In very cold weather doubles and singles should only be rowed when accompanied by a buddy boat or launch. In the event of an emergency, use these distress signals to communicate to other boats: wave your arms or a shirt above your head or raise one oar in the air. Capsizing If you flip, swing your feet out from under and away from the hull as quickly as possible to minimize entanglement with oars, riggers and clothing. Stay with the boat, holding onto the hull, until assistance arrives. Under no circumstances should you swim away from the shell, as it provides flotation. In a 4+ or 8+, follow the instructions of your coxswain or coach. In a scull, if you are rowing without a launch present, call the Fishing Office for a rescue. You may swim the boat to shore lying in the stern, using the shell as a paddleboard. Entering the shell directly from the water may cause splashboard damage, but you may do so if you have received specific training on this or are in your own boat. In very cold weather be aware that loss of muscle control can occur quickly and dramatically, so it is critical to call for help and keep as much of your body out of the water as possible. Traffic and Wakes Be courteous to others on the lake. Be aware of all boaters and treat them with respect. The rowing pattern on Lake Purdy is counter-clockwise. Take care when approaching wakes to avoid possible damage to the boats. If an approaching wake appears to be higher than the gunwales (sides), the boat should be turned parallel to the wake to avoid Page! 7 of 9!
8 having part of the shell unsupported by the water. It is possible to split a shell under these conditions. Rowers should stop rowing and lean away from the approaching wake, with oars on the wake side lifted slightly. If an approaching wake appears lower than the gunwales and widely spaced, continue to row without a course adjustment. Deep and closely-spaced wakes that are lower than the gunwales may be taken at a 90- degree angle with the bow facing directly toward the wake. Foul Conditions Check the weather forecast before going out on the water and, once out, watch for gathering clouds, changes in wind speed & direction, or temperature changes. If foul conditions arise while on the water, try to minimize equipment damage but remember that you are more valuable than the boat. Never row in strong winds, fog, or storms. If sudden winds come up, return to the boathouse if the trip is safe, or take the boat to the nearest shore and wait for the winds to calm. If fog sets in, use a whistle to advise other boats of your location as you take your boat towards shore, then follow the shore back to the boathouse. If you see lightning, hear thunder, or notice your hair standing on end with static electricity, head for the nearest shore, take your boat ashore and wait for the storm to pass. Hot Weather A rower exposed to sun and heat without sufficient fluids can risk heat exhaustion or heat stroke - two very dangerous conditions. To avoid these problems in hot and humid weather maintain a high fluid level. Drink water before leaving the dock and carry a water bottle onto the boat, use sunscreen, and wear light clothing and a hat. Signs of Heat Exhaustion include throbbing headache, nausea, cool skin, chills, sweaty, and pale pulse. Action - drink water, shade from sun, and treat for shock. Heat Stroke is life threatening -- signs are behavior changes, unconsciousness, hot but not sweaty, flushed warm skin and rapid pulse. Action- CALL 911, douse with cool water, shade from sun, fan, ensure the airway is open. Water Temperature Water temperature should always be monitored as there is danger of hypothermia anytime the lake temperature is below 80 degrees, and is exceedingly dangerous if the water temperature is below 50 degrees. Symptoms can include: turning blue, shivering, numbness, lethargy, and disorientation.
9 Action if cold and shivering: get out of the water quickly, even on top of the capsized boat. Keep as much of the body out of the water as possible - heat loss is 25 times greater in the water. Huddle with others and move to shelter quickly, remove wet clothing and re-warm body. Do not give any liquids to drink, treat for shock. Call 911 to obtain medical assistance as soon as possible. If the victim is still cold but shivering has stopped: treat as above but DO NOT RE-WARM EXTREMITIES! The torso must be re-warmed to avoid circulation of cold blood to the heart, which can kill. Wrap the victim in a warm blanket and apply heat to under-arms and groin area; wrap again in a separate blanket. Wrap each arm and leg separately to prevent rapid re-circulation of blood to the heart. Hot packs should not be placed directly on the victim, a thin layer should be used to protect the victim from burning. If possible place the victim in a sleeping bag with a warm person. Administer artificial respiration and CPR if necessary. Always obtain medical assistance as soon as possible. Cold water immersion -- Be aware that in very cold water people have survived as long as one hour underwater. Recover a victim immediately and even though there may be no sign of life, administer CPR efforts until medical assistance is obtained. The LPRA Board of Directors appreciates your cooperation.
