Since boat rescue techniques vary considerably with the type of craft and the wind and weather conditions, the requirements of the award specify the type of victim, rather than the method of rescue.
Prerequisites
Basic swimming, ability to complete the Lifesaving Society’s Swim To Survive Standard (roll into deep water, tread water for one minute, and swim 50 meters) with appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and craft-handling skills is required.
A Pleasure Craft Operator (PCO) card may be required.
