THE PERFECT GIFT!
Give or treat yourself to a subscription to the print + digital Journal of Sailing and for only 69 euros a year you get the magazine at home plus read it on your PC, smartphone and tablet. With a sea of advantages.
Resuscitation flask, sphygmomanometer (by the way, do you know what that is? It’s one of those things to measure blood pressure), phonendoscope, various manuals. This must contain, among other tools and medicines, your first aid kit (Table D) for recreational boats sailing more than 12 miles from the coast.
THERE IS TIME UNTIL MARCH 18
So dictates the Decree October 1, 2015 pertaining to “Amendments to the Table annexed to Decree No. 279 of May 25, 1988, indicating the medicines, articles of medicine and utensils with which national ships engaged in merchant traffic, fishing and nautical pleasure”, which has just come into force (you have until March 18 to comply).
WHO GAINS FROM IT? PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES
But unless there is a doctor on board, what do we do with professional instruments whose use we do not know in depth and whose data we do not know how to interpret? We answer: nothing. Indeed, in the unfortunate event that any of the crew decided to improvise themselves as doctors, we would risk even greater damage. The average cost of such a cassette is 250 euros-a nice business for pharmaceutical companies….
