As the summer looms up on
us there are more and more
boats and trailers on the high-
ways. The O.P.P. would like to
make a few suggestions to make
your traveling safer this year.
If you are trailering a boat to
your favorite vacation area, be
sure to check the trailer
thoroughly before starting .out.
Go over the frame with a
wrench and tighten all bolts
and fastenings, check and
grease wheel bearings, inflate
the tires to proper pressure - 60
pounds for the average boat
trailer, be sure the hitch and
safety chains are in safe
operational condition and
check the tail and turn lights.
Once out on the highway
with your additional weight
and length of load, use extra
caution in overtaking and
passing other traffic, or
changing lanes on multiple
lane highways. Remember, that
it takes longer to stop with that
extra load, so keep your speed
down and leave plenty of space
between you and the car ahead.
Before launching the boat, be
sure that the hull and engine
are in good condition and check
aver the required safety equip-
ment. Canadian pleasure boat
regulations require two paddles
or two oars and a bailing
bucket or bilge pump, and a
Government approved
lifejacket for each passenger.
This is minimal equipment for
the average family outboard.
The Ontario Provincial
Police suggests that you take
time to enjoy your holidays
safely.
