If during sailing you notice water in the craft, stay calm and immediately check if all the
seacocks are closed and turn on the bilge pumps. Use a manual bilge pump as well to pump
the water out. Switch off the engine and close the engine cooling valve. Close the tank valves
as well. Try to find out the cause of the leak as quickly as possible. If you fail to find out the
cause and if the water level in the craft continues to rise, start evacuation procedures.
If you run aground while sailing, open the inspection covers in the saloon floor and
immediately check for any leaks at the keel screws. Through the stowage compartment
check the installation of the steering wheel as well. In case of a leak, follow the directions in
the previous paragraph and have the sailing yacht lifted from water as soon as possible.
