14 Safety at Noss on Dart Marina General safety in the marina First aid is available from the Marina Reception A defibrillator is situated outside the Marina Reception. Familiarise yourself with the locations of the pontoon safety boxes. These boxes house fire extinguishers, throw lines, thermal blankets and first aid kits. Report all accidents and potential hazards to the Marina Reception immediately. Keep the pontoons clear of materials, tenders etc. Do not allow your anchor/davits to overhang walkways. Note the location of fire assembly points - see marina site map in this guide. Where applicable, note Water Evacuation points. Do not ride, or allow children to ride in the marina trolleys. In wet or icy weather, watch out for slippery pontoons. The boatyard has large equipment moving around. Please keep clear of vessels and machinery involved in lifting operations. Ensure that you use the correct size and quantity of mooring lines for your boat. Follow the safety instructions on your electricity supply pod before connecting your boat to the supply.

15 In the event of an emergency dial 999 then call the Marina Reception on VHF Ch.80 or dial For your general safety in the marina and for advice on fire safety in the marina - please read opposite. Water safety advice Whilst adjacent to water, life jackets should be worn at all times in accordance with RNLI respect-the-water and RoSPA guidelines. Children should wear life jackets and be supervised at all times when near the water. Wear a life jacket or clip on when on the upper deck of your boat, particularly when alone. When berthed in the marina, drop your boarding ladder to allow easy access back onto your boat in the event of a fall into the marina. Take note of nearby boats that could provide a means of exit should you fall into the marina. Take note of where the marina safety ladders are in proximity to your boat - see marina site map in this guide. Use rescue equipment only in the event of an emergency and advise the Reception if you use any of the equipment. Misuse of this equipment may have life-threatening ramifications for future users. Advice on fire safety in the marina Do not use BBQs on boats, jetties or pontoons. Keep minimum stores of petrol, diesel and gas. Install a smoke alarm and test it regularly. Ensure gas installations are in a sound condition and checked regularly by a qualified registered contractor. Make sure your gas bottle (LPG) is secured and kept away from heat sources. Check that your fire extinguishers and fire blanket are serviceable. Always isolate fuel and gas on leaving your vessel. Check electrical heaters, dehumidifiers and 240v equipment on leaving your vessel. In the event of an emergency Do not try to tackle the incident yourself - unless you are appropriately trained for the incident at hand and it is safe to do so. In the event of an evacuation, leave immediately and head for the nearest fire assembly point - see marina site map in this guide. If the route is blocked, make your way to the nearest Water Evacuation Point. Follow instructions given by marina staff, security and the emergency services. Alert neighbouring vessels. Do not waste time collecting personal items.
