Let's protect our unspoiled lakes!

Here are some essential tips for those who sail on several bodies of water:

  • Clean the hull, engine, ropes, anchor, fenders, lifejackets, diving equipment, etc. with high pressure, or soak the equipment in a solution of vinegar (5%) or salt (1%) for 20 minutes;
  • Drain ballast water before moving the boat;
  • Dry boats and equipment and, if possible, wait at least five days before transferring them to another body of water.
