Boating Safety Advice From Canada Safety Council
In rough weather boaters should head for the nearest sheltered shore and gather passengers to the lowest centerline area. Head into the wind at reduced speed. If the motor fails or waves prevent progress, deploy a sea anchor from the bow to keep the boat headed into the wind, using a bucket or knotted shirt as needed.
