Transport Canada Minimum Safety Equipment Requirements

Here is a link to the Transport Canada website that deals with the small craft safety requirements.

https://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/marinesafety/tp-tp511-equipment-1140.htm#minimum_safety_equipment_requirements

A review of this site will provide members with the inspection criteria for our club “Safety Day”, and all other times you are enjoying your yacht on the water.

A condensed checklist will be available covering all of the sizes of yachts at our club.  Pick one up on Safety Day – It would be a good idea to use this as you go through your inventory of these minimum safety requirements.
