6. Fire Precautions. A fire is better prevented than actually fought out because though it can
be successfully fought, it is bound to cause loss of property and sometimes even life. All Camp staff
and cadets, therefore, must realise at all time that preventive precautions are of paramount
importance and will be taken by all.
(a) Buildings, Tents wings, Office and MT parks will be kept clean at all times. Cleanliness
and tidiness effectively reduce the danger of fire and all stuff in MT Park, should be stored

permitted except in the bins provided for the purpose. Bins should be cleaned daily and the
contents burnt under supervision.

dug in a bed of sand. Only foam type extinguishers are used in case of outbreak of fire.
8. Kindling of Fire. Open fire is allowed only in the Cook House and near the bathroom for
heating water for bath. This should be extinguished at the end of the day.
9. Smoking. One of the most common causes of fire is the careless handling of smoking
materials. Smoking is the biggest danger in Camp from fire point of view. Careless discarding and
throwing of ends, therefore, is strictly prohibited. Ash trays on office tables and tins in tents should be
provided.
10. Lights. All electricity connections in the Camp Area need special precautions by all. No
connections other than given by the MES will be taken. All these fittings should be inspected daily by
the MES staff on duty. Whenever there appears to be any defect like loose wiring, faulty switches/plug
points and naked wiring resulting in short circuiting those will be immediately brought to the notice of
MES staff on duty. Electricity will be cut off during heavy rains, lighting and storms under a central
arrangement.

(b) By Sounding of Gong. These consist of iron rails/gongs partly painted red suspended
with the help of a string/wire at each fire point. The fire alarms will be raised by sounding the
gongs and it will be continued until such time the personnel in the Camp are mustered into
their respective fire parties in response to this alarm raised.

14. Introduction. The safety rules to be observed during the practices and the finals of Regatta
are given in the succeeding paragraphs. These safety rules are the guidelines for the safety
precautions to be observed by officers, PI staff and cadets participating in this Regatta. These rules
are compiled from Seamanship Manual (BR 67) 1995 edition and various relevant sources.
15. Whilst every effort has been made to make these safety rules as comprehensive as possible
to cover all contingencies, it is not possible to cover all contingencies in such situations. Therefore,
personnel are advised to revert to advice/instructions tendered in Seamanship Manual (BR 67) and
other relevant publications and the dictates of common sense as circumstances of the situation may
warrant. Where, for some reasons, there has been a departure in these rules from those laid down in
Seamanship Manual Vol I and II, the Seamanship Manual will supersede these instructions.
16. Conditions of Boats and Fittings. It is to be ensured that the boats designated as main and
stand by for the regatta(boats and dinghies) are generally in overall good condition and there are no
serious hull defects that may affect the seaworthiness of the boat during its employment during the
Regatta. Special attention should be paid to the following aspects: -
(a) The hull should be waterproof to ensure that there is no possibility of ingress of water,
which can, in any way, endanger its safety.
(b) All damaged items especially planks, keel box and buoyancy tanks etc are repaired
properly and have been inspected.
(c) All the necessary fittings required for pulling and sailing, such as mast, sails, thwarts
stretchers etc, are in State.
198
(d) The bilge rails of boat and dinghies and the lifelines of boat are ok.
(e) All the securing gear such as ringbolts, towing bollards, wires, ropes have been
checked.
(f) The rudder and its fittings are well secured and the tiller is provided with its split pin to
ensure that it does not slip out whilst in use.
(g) The plugs of the boats are properly fitted and the boat is watertight.
17. Checking the Equipment. Before taking out the whalers/dinghies for use during the
practices/heats/regatta, coxswains is to ensure that the boat is correctly rigged. Coxswain is to doubly
ensure the following: -
(b) Oars. Full complement of oars with one spare oar is to be ensured. It is particularly
important that a dinghy equipped with only one pair of sculls should carry a spare oar.
(c) Crutches (Single-Banked Boats). Full complement of oars with one spare to be
ensured. Crutches are to be secured by its lanyard to the boat.
(h) Towing Bollard. If portable, it is to be in the boat with its clamp & pin.
(j) Wearing of Life Jackets. The crew is to wear half inflated Life jackets at all the time
during sailing/pulling.
18. Conduct of the Crew in the Boat. When entering a boat, the crew should step on thwarts
they should avoid stepping on the gunwale and move carefully in the boat. Movement of personnel in
the boat must be kept to the absolute essential when underway. Even when the boat is alongside,
movements inside the boat must be controlled and orderly. The crew member or passenger in the
boat should not lean or rest any part of his body on the gunwale nor should any part of his body
extend outside the hull of the boat except when specifically required to balance the boat during
sailing.
19. Loading of Boats. The boat should not be loaded with personnel or material beyond the
stipulated capacity. The maximum of personnel that may be embarked in boats
is given below: -
21. Weighing of Boats. All the Boats participating in the race are to be weigh independently.
Boats are to be of equal weight by adding sand bags in the lighter boat.
(b) All the boat crew to wear half inflated life jackets at all the times while sailing/pulling.
(c) When sailing, no one should stand on the thwarts or climb the mast.
(d) If the gear is fouled aloft and cannot be cleared with a boat hook, crew must stand on
the bottom boards while clearing the foul.
23. Handling in Rough Weather. Attention of the coxswains is drawn to the condition that may
occur during sailing in rough weather. The precautions and remedial action that should be taken as
laid down under these headings in Seamanship Manual (BR 67) page 5-77 to 5-92. All the coxswains
and crew are to be fully conversant with these actions and must be able to put them into practice if the
situation warrants it.
24. Drop Keel. In a small boat, when keel is lowered, it lowers the center of gravity of the boat
and make the boat more stabilized. When the keel is lowered, the resistance offered by the water to
its surface reduces any tendency of the boat to roll but when the boat is under sail and making
leeway, this lateral resistance will produce a capsizing movement. The movement is not appreciable
under normal conditions of beating and reaching but may become dangerous if the boat is blown
broadside to leeward by a sudden squall or if she yaws badly or broaches to when running. The drop
keel should always be raised if there is chance of the boat running aground because if it hits the
bottom not only might it become bent which might prevent it from being raised, it may also capsize the
boat or even split her open.
25. Safety Boat. A minimum of one power boat should always remain available as safety boat
during the conduct of the regatta. The safety boat should carry the following: -
26. Safety Officer. A safety and rescue officer is to be detailed by name by conducting
Directorate. This officer will be responsible for ensuring safety during practices and during the
Regatta.
27. Conclusion. The above rules are only general guidelines for the safety of these expeditions,
they are by no means comprehensive and are to be read in conjunction with Manual of Seamanship
200
(BR 67) 1995 edition and other relevant publications. Where there has been a departure in these rules
from those laid down in the Manual of Seamanship 1995 edition, the Seamanship manual will
supersede these instructions.

12. Introduction. The safety rules to be observed during the practices and the finals of Regatta
are given in the succeeding paragraphs. These safety rules are the guidelines for the safety
precautions to be observed by officers, PI staff and cadets participating in this Regatta. These rules
are compiled from Seamanship Manual (BR 67) 1995 edition and various relevant sources.
13. Whilst every effort has been made to make these safety rules as comprehensive as possible
to cover all contingencies, it is not possible to cover all contingencies in such situations. Therefore,
personnel are advised to revert to advice/instructions tendered in Seamanship Manual (BR 67) and
other relevant publications and the dictates of common sense as circumstances of the situation may
warrant. Where, for some reasons, there has been a departure in these rules from those laid down in
Seamanship Manual Vol I and II, the Seamanship Manual will supersede these instructions.
14. Conditions of Boats and Fittings. It is to be ensured that the boats designated as main and
stand by for the regatta(boats and dinghies) are generally in overall good condition and there are no
serious hull defects that may affect the seaworthiness of the boat during its employment during the
Regatta. Special attention should be paid to the following aspects: -
(a) The hull should be waterproof to ensure that there is no possibility of ingress of water,
which can, in any way, endanger its safety.
(b) All damaged items especially planks, keel box and buoyancy tanks etc are repaired
properly and have been inspected.
(c) All the necessary fittings required for pulling and sailing, such as mast, sails, thwarts
stretchers etc, are in State.
The bilge rails of boat and dinghies and the lifelines of boat are ok.
(d) All the securing gear such as ringbolts, towing bollards, wires, ropes have been
checked.
(e) The rudder and its fittings are well secured and the tiller is provided with its split pin to
ensure that it does not slip out whilst in use.
(f) The plugs of the boats are properly fitted and the boat is watertight.
212
15. Checking the Equipment. Before taking out the whalers/dinghies for use during the
practices/heats/regatta, coxswains is to ensure that the boat is correctly rigged. Coxswain is to doubly
ensure the following:-
(b) Oars. Full complement of oars with one spare oar is to be ensured. It is particularly
important that a dinghy equipped with only one pair of sculls should carry a spare oar.
(c) Crutches (Single-Banked Boats). Full complement of oars with one spare to be
ensured. Crutches are to be secured by its lanyard to the boat.
(h) Towing Bollard. If portable, it is to be in the boat with its clamp & pin.
(j) Wearing of Life Jackets. The crew is to wear half inflated Life jackets at all the time
during sailing/pulling.
16. Conduct of the Crew in the Boat. When entering a boat, the crew should step on thwarts
they should avoid stepping on the gunwale and move carefully in the boat. Movement of personnel in
the boat must be kept to the absolute essential when underway. Even when the boat is alongside,
movements inside the boat must be controlled and orderly. The crew member or passenger in the
boat should not lean or rest any part of his body on the gunwale nor should any part of his body
extend outside the hull of the boat except when specifically required to balance the boat during
sailing.
17. Loading of Boats. The boat should not be loaded with personnel or material beyond the
stipulated capacity. The maximum of personnel that may be embarked in boats is given below: -
18. In addition to reducing loading to the number of personnel specified above, due heed must be
paid to the positioning of personnel/material in the boat to ensure that the boat remains on an
even keel. Extra care while loading a boat is to be exercised so that boat does not becomes top
heavy and therefore unstable.
(b) All the boat crew to wear half inflated life jackets at all the times while sailing/pulling.
213
(c) When sailing, no one should stand on the thwarts or climb the mast.
(d) If the gear is fouled aloft and cannot be cleared with a boat hook, crew must stand on
the bottom boards while clearing the foul.
20. Handling in Rough Weather. Attention of the coxswains is drawn to the condition that
may occur during sailing in rough weather. The precautions and remedial action that should be
taken as laid down under these headings in Seamanship Manual (BR 67) page 5-77 to 5-92. All
the coxswains and crew are to be fully conversant with these actions and must be able to put them
into practice if the situation warrants it.
21. Drop Keel. In a small boat, when keel is lowered, it lowers the center of gravity of the boat
and make the boat more stabilized. When the keel is lowered, the resistance offered by the water
to its surface reduces any tendency of the boat to roll but when the boat is under sail and making
leeway, this lateral resistance will produce a capsizing movement. The movement is not
appreciable under normal conditions of beating and reaching but may become dangerous if the
boat is blown broadside to leeward by a sudden squall or if she yaws badly or broaches to when
running. The drop keel should always be raised if there is chance of the boat running aground
because if it hits the bottom not only might it become bent which might prevent it from being
raised, it may also capsize the boat or even split her open.
22. Safety Boat. A minimum of one power boat should always remain available as safety boat
during the conduct of the regatta. The safety boat should carry the following: -
23. Safety Officer. A safety and rescue officer is to be detailed by name by conducting
Directorate. This officer will be responsible for ensuring safety during practices and during the
Regatta.
24. Conclusion. The above rules are only general guidelines for the safety of these
expeditions, they are by no means comprehensive and are to be read in conjunction with Manual
of Seamanship (BR 67) 1995 edition and other relevant publications. Where there has been a
departure in these rules from those laid down in the Manual of Seamanship 1995 edition, the
Seamanship manual will supersede these instructions.
