Харпунен риболовКарта

БЕЗОПАСНОСТ

Върни се от всяко гмуркане.

Харпунният риболов е спорт с задържане на дъх и океанът не прощава компромиси. По-долу е общото, широко преподавано знание за безопасност, което всеки харпунер трябва да носи, последвано от официалните органи по рибарство и морски дейности, които имаме по файл за всяка държава. Прочетете го, след което вземете правилно обучение, преди да натискате границите си.

Обща насока

Основите

Тези принципи се прилагат навсякъде и не са специфични за нито една държава. Първите три не са по желание — те са разликата между нормално гмуркане и фатално.

Критично

Нещото, което е убивало опитни водолази

Плитководен блекаут

Най-честата причина за смъртни случаи при харпунен риболов. На пътя нагоре падащото налягане може да спадне кислородното ниво в кръвта под нивото, нужно за да останете в съзнание — често без предупреждение или почти без такова. Никога не натискайте задържането на дъх до края и никога не гмуркайте сами.

Критично

Един горе, един долу

Системата с напарник едно горе / едно долу

Гмуркайте по двойки и се редувайте: единият водолаз слиза докато другият активно наблюдава от повърхността, готов да помогне. Продължете да наблюдавате поне 30 секунди след като изплуват — блекаутът често се случва на или точно след повърхността.

Критично

Непреговаримо

Никога не гмурнете сами

Блекаутът е преживяем само ако някой е там, за да повдигне дихателните ви пътища над водата в рамките на секунди. Никоя риба не си заслужава.

Добра практика

Бъдете готови да изплуват бързо

Претегляне и освобождаване на тежестен колан

Претеглете се така, че да се издигате на повърхността и да изплувате от около 10 м. Носете бърза закопчалка, обърната навън, и упражнявайте освобождаването на колана, за да бъде автоматично при спешност.

Добра практика

Те не могат да видят глава в морето

Осведоменост за корабоплавателния трафик

Винаги разгъвайте флаг за гмуркане или теглете буй за сигнализация (SMB), стойте близо до него и приемайте, че корабите не могат да ви видят. Изплувайте с едната ръка вдигната нагоре и харпунът ненатоварен, насочен надолу.

Добра практика

Знайте го преди да влезете в морето

Местни спешни контакти и брегова охрана

Запишете местния спешен номер и контакта за брегова охрана / морско спасяване преди да гмурнете. Официалните органи по рибарство и морски дейности по-долу са за регулаторни въпроси — потърсете спешните номера за точното ви местоположение отделно.

Добра практика

Не лъжете тялото си

Не хипервентилирайте

Свръхдишането преди гмуркане намалява CO₂ и премахва позива за дишане — без да добавя кислород. Това закъсняло предупреждение е точно причината за блекаут. Дишайте спокойно и плавно.

Добра практика

Тренирайте за това, което правите

Спазвайте дълбочината, времето и обучението си

Увеличавайте дълбочината и времето на дъното бавно и само с правилно обучение. Гмуркайте в рамките на сертификацията и текущата ви физическа форма, не в рамките на егото ви или най-добрия ви ден.

Добра практика

Океанът поставя условията

Проверете условията и изравнявайте внимателно

Проверявайте вълнението, течението, видимостта и прилива преди и по време на гмуркането. Изравнявайте рано и често; никога не форсирайте. Ако не можете да изравните, прекъснете спускането.

Добра практика

Настройте се за успех

Почивайте, хидратирайте и кажете на някого плана си

Умората, дехидратацията, алкохолът и студът увеличават риска от блекаут. Почивайте, хидратирайте, топлете се и казвайте на някого на брега плана си и очакваното си време за завръщане.

Проверени данни

Официални контакти по държава

Това са официалните органи по рибарство и морски дейности, записани в нашите файлове за всяка държава — извлечени директно от записа на съответната държава, не редактирани или измислени. Те са правилните хора, с когото да потвърдите лицензиране, сезони и местни правила.

Това не са спешни служби. При спешност се обадете на местния спешен номер или на брегова охрана за вашето местоположение — потърсете ги местно преди да гмурнете.
