Incident Reporting
If you follow the club rules, prepare yourself and your equipment
properly and familiarize yourself with the local conditions, you should have an
incident free session.
For those (hopefully) rare occasions when an incident occurs please follow
this procedure and submit a report.
General Rules
- Ensure you have taken every reasonable precaution to avoid an incident.
- Do not hesitate to contact the emergency services if necessary.
- Do not involve other beach users, who may be unaware of the danger kites can pose, in any incident involving a stray/downed kite. Use other kitesurfers to assist.
- You must notify the club Safety Officer (or a member of the committee) for all significant incidents. If in doubt, report it.
Golf Club Incidents
- Do not climb the fence.
- Contact the golf club on 023 92464446 or see the staff in the golf shop.
- They can escort you safely to retrieve any kite from their grounds.
- Report all incidents involving the golf club.
Ditched Kites or Lost Boards
- This is the common incident and must be reported. A washed up board or kite can trigger
a needless search by the Coastguard and RNLI.
- For all ditched kites and boards you must notify Solent Coastguard on 023 92552100.
- Report all incidents involving ditched kites or lost boards.
