Midsummer brings crowds onto the water – are you keeping an eye on the “Warnings for boaters” and familiar with the rules on giving way?

Many people will head out onto the water to celebrate Finnish Midsummer and the warm weather. One person in the boat is responsible for ensuring a safe boat trip – the master of the vessel. Before setting out on the water, it is a good idea to review the master's most important responsibilities and ensure that the “Warnings for boaters” notices have been taken into account and that you are familiar with the rules on giving way.
