Hi everybody,

I'm looking for some info on safety equipment (liferaft, fires etc) for
a German flagged boat. I need to move my SY and need to know what the
German law asks as mandatory safety gear.

Thank you in advance !

It depends. If the boat is for charter, the standards are different. If used
only privately, there are no rules to speak of. Only recommendations, which
are clearly just common sense
