Hints & Tips: 10 Things To Think About When Going Sailing By Yourself

In this video the team at Sailing Chandlery cover 10 things you might want to think about when going sailing by yourself.

Sailing is a fantastic adventure and exploring is so much fun. However, if you are out there by yourself you should really take the time to prepare for your sailing adventure ensuring you and your kit are ready to go.

Here are the 10 items we think you should think about:

1) Plan your route, look at the weather forecast and tides
2) Let someone know your plans and rough timings
3) Give your boat a good check before you go
4) Put your trolley somewhere obvious people can see it
5) Ensure you have the right clothing for the conditions, and take extra layers
6) Wear bright clothing so you can be seen
7) Take enough food and drink
8) Take a VHF or mobile phone with you
9) Download and use the RYA Safetrax app
10) Take something to use to draw attention to yourself
