Whether you’re on a canal or the high seas, staying safe and healthy is important. On a boat, you’re less connected to the rest of the world and can often feel alone, thus looking after yourself is key. The best way to do that is to make sure that your boat is safe, to help make sure you stay healthy. 

Toilets and sewage

When you’re on land, it’s really easy to take a trip to the nearest toilet, and the waste just goes away. On the water, making sure that your boat toilets are up to scratch can help to make sure that you don’t get sick from any waste that’s improperly disposed of. If your boat is appropriate, you may consider a marine sewage treatment plant on board, to properly deal with waste wherever you may be.

Vessel tracking and monitoring system

On the open sea a vessel tracking system is a must. With open water ahead of you it can be difficult to keep track of your location, a problem that is effectively resolved by boat monitoring systems. In real-time, you’re able to know your location and keep track of your voyage’s progress, keeping you safe and secure on the water.

Keeping the boat in good condition

If your boat leaves the dock in a bad condition, it’s likely that you won’t have the facilities on board to improve its condition. Any boat refits and repairs need to be completed before you set off, as if anything goes wrong on your voyage that was preventable before your trip could end up being expensive, and more importantly, dangerous.
