As you prepare for your next adventure on the water, please establish a Float Plan. A float plan lets people know where you’re recreating on the water, the time you expect to return, and how to contact you should you not return. Methods for filing a float plan include a text message, a hand-written note, or a shared GPS location. The purpose of this Plan is to have help already in place should an issue arise.
