AN INDISPENSABLE ELEMENTDewatering on a boat is the set of methods and equipment used to evacuate the water that accumulates in the holds or other parts of the vessel. This operation is essential to maintain the boat's buoyancy, stability and safety. Water on board can come from a number of sources, including leaks, sea spray, seepage from rain or water ingress in the event of an incident. |
SAFETY AND PREVENTIONFor active monitoring, we recommend installing a water level warning system. The-system will warn you immediately if the water level reaches a critical level, enabling you to react quickly. In terms of preventing seepage, it's essential to regularly inspect seals, portholes, hatches and any other areas likely to let in water. Maintenance of hull valves is also essential, to ensure their proper operation and prevent any problems. In emergency management, it's crucial to quickly identify the source of any major water ingress. Use plugs or fabric to immediately limit water ingress. In addition, a high-flow portable pump can be vital for quickly evacuating water and stabilizing the situation. |
