Special Procedure for Passengers Strapped into Wheelchairs.

The additional procedures detail below are to be applied if any passenger is strapped into their wheelchair.

Crew will:

  • identify, prior to boarding, wheelchair users who are strapped in.

  • establish with the carer the need to remain strapped in.

  • ensure the loading gate opposite the gate being used to load is closed during boarding.

  • distribute heavy wheelchairs across the boat evenly.

  • ensure both loading gates remain locked closed throughout the trip.

  • understand how to release the straps.

  • select an appropriate buoyancy aid and have it available for use if needed.

  • conduct these procedures without introducing alarm or anxiety to passengers.
