Safety reminders
During the "May Day" holiday, in order to ensure the safety of water travel, we warmly remind you to pay attention to the following safety precautions:
Ride safely
01
Do not carry flammable or explosive materials such as firecrackers and gasoline on board.
02
Get on and off the boat in order, wait for the boat to be stable and the gangplank is placed, and then line up in turn, first get off and then get on.
03
If you are boarding a ferry by car, motorcycle, or bicycle, you should get off the bus before taking the ferry.
04
After getting on the boat, familiarize yourself with the location and use of life jackets, lifebuoys, and firefighting equipment, and keep in mind the safe escape routes.
05
Do not take an overloaded boat, do not take a ferry in case of strong winds, fog and floods, and obey the command and take refuge with the boat in case of sudden bad weather such as strong winds and thunderstorms during the boat.
Keep in mind the "four things to see"
01 See if there is a ship name
The name of the ship is generally prominently placed on the sides of the hull, or on the top or side of the cockpit. You can't sit on a boat without a ship name!
02 Look at the passenger quota of the ship
Ship passenger quota tags are usually located at the top of the boarding stairway or at the entrance to the cabin. There are also small passenger (ferry) boats that are glued to the bulkhead inside the cabin near the cockpit. When boarding the ship, estimate or ask whether the number of passengers exceeds the quota, and the boat that does not indicate the quota or exceeds the quota cannot be sitted!
03 Look at the height of the ship on the water
When the ship is close to the water, the ship's load line will be clearly marked with two different paint colors, if this line is below the water surface, or if you can't see different color lines, the ship is overloaded. An overloaded ship can't sit!
04Check whether there is any safety equipment
Boats with complete safety equipment will be equipped with safety equipment such as life jackets, lifebuoys, and fire extinguishers in conspicuous places. Once on board, find the place where the life jacket is placed. You can't sit on a boat without safety equipment!
Do "five don'ts"
Do not enter the cab
Do not climb guardrails
Do not damage life-saving equipment
Don't chase around on the boat
Do not congregate on the side of the boat
Water safety
Get in the water for a swim
01
Do not go swimming in the wild, especially do not go to reservoirs and pools, it is best to go to regular swimming places, and children must be taken care of by their parents.
02
Beginners and children should learn and practice in the shallow waters of the pool.
03
Before entering the water, it is necessary to make full preparations for activities, such as swinging arms and kicking legs, twisting and twisting the body, etc., and slowly immerse your body in the water before entering the water to adapt to the water temperature and avoid body cramps after entering the water.
04
Don't drink alcohol before swimming, don't get too tired, and breathe through your mouth to prevent choking.
Fun by the sea
When visiting the beach, you should pay attention to the changes of the tides, and if you do not know the laws of the tides, do not enter the water easily. Try not to linger on the reef because the moss on the reef is slippery and there are many undercurrents nearby, and the sea water can easily drown the retreat path at high tide. When many people go to the beach together, they need to prepare a lifebuoy. If there is something around you that is carried away by the current, don't chase it if you can't catch up, because the undercurrent on the bottom of the sea is surging, which is more dangerous. If the weather changes abruptly and the swells on the beach become bigger, go ashore and leave the beach.
