When the dangerous weather is in the weather forecast for the waters you plan on boating in.
Try to shove off with a paddle or boathook.
All the time. Storms at sea can develop completely from nowhere and become very violent within minutes. Be prepared for anything while boating so that you are never caught off guard and are ready for whatever weather comes along. The trip to shore may not be possible to get other gear.
If caught in severe storm conditions, seek shelter indoors or in a sturdy building. Avoid open areas, tall trees, and bodies of water. Stay informed of weather updates and follow any evacuation orders from authorities.
The first thing to do is get in touch with someone on land in order to alert them of your situation. You should then put on your life jacket and try heading to shore.
Make sure all aboard are wearing USCG-approved PFDs
