Passage planning Print E-mail

 

Passage planning is a very broad subject and how much you will actually need largely depends on the kind of trip you're doing. A Sunday afternoon coastal trip around some nearby buoys like you've done so many times before does not require the same planning as an ocean going journey to a new destination. Below are a few categories, in no particular order, that should somehow get your attention before you commence any trip:

 

  • Boat / equipment check-up
  • Weather forecasts
  • Tidal considerations
  • Food and beverages
  • Navigation plan
