Verifikuar së fundi: 14 tetor 2026

Hap pas hapi

1. Jelekë shpëtimi, jepni alarmin

   Sigurohuni që të gjithë të kenë veshur jelek shpëtimi dhe jepni alarmin.[1][2]

2. Thërrisni ndihmë herët

   Nëse po fundoseni, dërgoni MAYDAY. Nëse rrjedhja është nën kontroll por mund të përkeqësohet, dërgoni PAN-PAN që shpëtimtarët ta dinë herët.[3][4][5][6]

3. Gjeni rrjedhjen

   Nëse është e sigurt, gjeni nga po hyn uji. Kontrolloni tapat e shkarkimit dhe pajisjet që kalojnë nëpër byk nën vijën e ujit.[7][8][9]

4. Mbylleni ose tapojeni

   Përpiquni ta taponi vrimën me materialet që mbani për rrjedhjet e bykut. Nëse rrjedhja është te një kalim nëpër byk me valvul, mbyllni valvulën.[7][10][9]

5. Pomponi dhe nxirrni ujin

   Ndizni pompën e sentinës dhe nxirrni ujin me enë ose kovë. Vazhdoni pa ndalur.[11][12][13][14]

6. Drejtohuni drejt sigurisë nëse mundeni

   Nëse varka mund të lëvizë ende pa rrezik, drejtohuni për te porti më i afërt ose te bregu ku afrimi është i sigurt.[15]

7. Përgatituni ta braktisni

   Para se të lini varkën, dërgoni një thirrje rreziku, mbajeni jelekun e shpëtimit veshur dhe mos hiqni rroba: vishni më shumë nëse keni kohë. Mbajeni sinjalizuesin gati.[16][17]

8. Nëse përfundoni në ujë

   Aktivizoni EPIRB-in ose PLB-në. Qëndroni me varkën ndërsa pluskon dhe ngjitni mbi të sa më shumë pjesë të trupit. Grumbullohuni bashkë për të qëndruar ngrohtë dhe të dukshëm.[18][19][20][21]

Mos

• Mos hiqni rroba. Vishni më shumë nëse keni kohë.[16]
• Mos e lini varkën ndërsa ende pluskon. Pranë saj jeni shumë më të lehtë për t'u gjetur.[18][19]
• Mos prisni derisa varka të jetë gati të fundoset për të thirrur. Njoftimi i hershëm mund të jetë vendimtar.[6]

Para lundrimit

• Para se ta lëshoni në ujë: kontrolloni që tapat e shkarkimit të jenë në vend.[8]
• Kontrolloni sentinën para çdo udhëtimi.[22]
• Mbani vegla dhe materiale për të riparuar rrjedhjet e bykut.[10]
• Dijeni cilat hapje në varkën tuaj mund të fusin ujë dhe si mbyllen.[23]
• Mbajini jelekët e shpëtimit dhe pajisjet e sigurisë lehtësisht të arritshme, dhe mendoni të mbani një EPIRB.[24][17]
