A large vessel will remind you to give way by giving five or more short blasts of its horn.
With the 2023 Cruise season underway at the Port of Corner Brook, it’s important for all watercraft operators to keep safety in mind. Always watch for others on the water and be ready to yield to large vessels. Use radar and radio if you have them. Wear a Canadian-approved lifejacket or PFD choosing a bright colour for better visibility. Navigate in groups of other small boats, when possible, to be more visible. Stay off the water in fog or high winds and be aware of changing wind conditions. Stay clear of docked vessels, vessels in transit, vessels in tow and working fishing vessels. Remain at a safe distance from large boats, as their power and reduced maneuverability can pose a real threat to others in the water. Stay out of the shipping channel and be aware of the signals made by large vessels to aid communication. A large vessel will remind you to give way by giving five or more short blasts of its horn.
