Over the course of the month, the Maritime Authority will be working with schools and the wider community to spread the sea safety message. The RNLI have agreed to support the authority with access to their educational resources. Loads of useful links are available on the Maritime Authority website.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the summer approaching, more of the community are taking to the water on paddleboards, kayaks, jet skis, surf boards and other forms of craft. The campaign aims to provide users of all types of watercraft with the information and resources they need to be able to undertake their activities as safely as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Chandlery are supporting the campaign and will be offering 10% off all lifejackets throughout the month of November. There will also be a display in their porch with a range of safety leaflets covering all forms of water sports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your organisation or group would like any further information, or want to get involved in spreading the sea safety message, please contact the Maritime Authority on 27233, or call into the Old Design Office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"722\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gov.fk\/maritimeauthority\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2026\/02\/boating_safety_seven-1024x722.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-978\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gov.fk\/maritimeauthority\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2026\/02\/boating_safety_seven-1024x722.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.gov.fk\/maritimeauthority\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2026\/02\/boating_safety_seven-300x212.png 300w, https:\/\/www.gov.fk\/maritimeauthority\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2026\/02\/boating_safety_seven-768x542.png 768w, https:\/\/www.gov.fk\/maritimeauthority\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2026\/02\/boating_safety_seven.png 1120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>November is the Falklands\u2019 first ever Sea Safety Month.
