Federal law requires certain safety equipment to be onboard at all times. In addition, responsible boaters carry other equipment in case of emergency. Check with the local boating authorities for any additional requirements over and above the federal stipulations.

Safety Equipment

Your Supra has been equipped at the factory with most of the federally required safety equipment for inland waters (Class 1, 16’-to-26’). This equipment includes:

-UL-approved Marine Fire Extinguisher, Type A-BC (2 lbs.), good for solids, liquids, and electrical fire

-ABYC-approved Marine Mufflers with water injection

-USCG-approved Marine Flame Arrestor

-USCG-approved Engine Box Ventilation with sparkless power blower

-ABYC-approved Electric Horn sound warning device

-USCG-approved inland lighting

Federal law also requires at least one Type I, II or III Personal Flotation Device (PFD) for each person on board or being towed on water skis or other recreational equipment. In addition, one throwable Type IV PFD must also be on board. As the owner, obtaining the appropriate PFDs is your responsibility. Your Supra dealer can and will be happy to assist you.

NOTE: Requirements for coastal waters and inland waters differ. Check with the local authorities for more information.

A smart owner will avoid potential problems on an outing by having additional equipment on board. Normally, this equipment is dependent on the body of water and the length of the trip.

We suggest the following—as a minimum. Your Supra dealer can also assist you with additional recommendations.

-An anchor with at least 75 feet of line

-A manual bailing device for removing water

-A combination oar/boat hook

-A day-and-night visual distress signal

-A first aid kit and manual

-An airway breathing tube

-A waterproof flashlight

-A set of local navigation charts

-Mooring lines and fenders

-Extra engine oil

-A tool kit

-A portable AM/FM radio or weather radio

Boating-related accidents are generally caused by the operator’s failure to follow basic safety rules or written precautions. Most accidents can be avoided if the operator is completely familiar with the boat, its operation, and can recognize potentially hazardous situations before an accident occurs.
