Information could save lives
The forms are available from the federation or the Ministry of Transport Marine Division offices in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch. “Two minutes that could save your life” is the slogan of an information checklist prepared by the Small Boat Safety Committee and the New Zealand Coast-Guard Federation. The form asks smallboat owners to list basic
information about their ini tentions before making an afternoon or day trip. It is a condensed version of the .“10 minute form” used by private craft before deep-water or coastal voyages. A description of the boat, the number of persons on board, the intended destination, and estimated time of return are required. This is information that could prove vital in a search.
