I realize that this has been discussed at length before but I could not find the thread in the archives. So ... Does anybody have a link to a Pre-Launch Check List that I can print out and get laminated to keep in the boat? If there is also a Pre-season check list around that would be great too. I'm trying to organize all of the paper and reference material into a single binder for on-board reference. Thanks for the help Hope to launch this weeknd. (I know it's late but we have a short season and I travel too much). Richard

Coast Guard has them.
We just had a courtesy inspection done by the local coast guard group - TOWARF - Oakville. After the very thorough inpection, they gave us approved inspection 2006 decal for installing on a portlight, a pre-launch check list, a free Fox 40 whistle, an RCMP decal of right of way arcs. I'm pretty sure they have the same programme right across the country. Hope this helps.

No doubt.
Mine consists of: Pre-launch 1. Is there gas? 2. Are the PFD's aboard? 3. Is the rudder in the back of the truck? 4. Ziplock for the cell? 5. Something to drink aboard (preferably water)? 6. Drain plug in? Post-launch 1. Rudder on? 2. Keel down? That's pretty much it.
