28 April 2022, Thursday

    Denis Makeev, the head of the Kazan Inspection Department of the SISV Center, said this during a raid on the Volga River near Kazan. According to him, the owners of small vessels have become much more responsible for meeting the requirements of the legislation. We are talking about the Rules for the Use of Small vessels on the water bodies of the Russian Federation, which entered into force on January 1, 2021.
    Recall that the basic rules of the Rules focus the attention of the skipper on the safety of the crew. The circumstances under which it is necessary to wear individual life-saving equipment are introduced, and it is also specified how to put them on correctly.
