KEY LEARNING POINTS

Launching

• Understand where the wind is blowing from and how that affects where you need to position your boat on the pontoon.

• Only use the downwind or leeward side of the pontoon.

• Never use the windward side of the pontoon.

• Look out for slip or trip hazards on the slipway prior to launching.

• Secure the boat to the pontoon itself with a suitable knot.

• When stepping into the boat, make sure you are as close as you can be to the centreline.

• When manoeuvring your boat, be careful not to trap your fingers between the side of the boat and the pontoon.

• Sail away from the pontoon on a close reach point of sailing.
