Precautions for rafting

Do not do any dangerous actions when rafting: Generally speaking, rafting sections of the river are relatively safe. As long as you do not get off the boat on your own initiative, do not fight with each other, and do not take the initiative to grab floating objects in the water and grass, trees and stones on the shore, the raft will not capsize. It doesn’t matter if the boat capsizes, just hold your breath and be careful not to choke on water, because you are wearing a life jacket;

When the drifting boat passes through dangerous shoals, you must obey the boatman's instructions, do not move around randomly, hold the safety rope tightly, tighten your feet, and lean your body toward the center of the boat;

During rafting, pay attention to the arrows and signs along the way, which can help you find the main waterway and alert you to the falling water area in advance.

As there are many water drop areas and large drop areas along the way, please be sure not to bring anything that is sensitive to water to avoid it from falling or getting damaged. Friends who wear glasses, please find a rubber band to tie your glasses. You must wear a life jacket throughout the trip. The life jacket will keep you floating if you fall into the water. Even if you can swim, you must wear it throughout the trip to prevent yourself from panicking if the boat capsizes without you noticing, and to ensure your safety. The drifting boat is made of polymer material and has three independent air chambers. There will be no leakage problems under normal use. Since the stream is not deep, even if there is a problem, you can go ashore in time, blow the distress whistle on the life jacket, find rescuers and change the drifting boat.

During the rafting process, please pay attention to the arrows and signs along the way. They can help you find the main waterway and alert you to the falling water area in advance. When going down rapids, please keep the boat gear balanced with the boat body and hold the handrail on the inside of the boat body. The person at the back should lean back slightly. Both people should ensure that the boat body is balanced and parallel to the river channel and go downstream.
