1. Slow down.Sea turtles have lived long before humans, they have survived the laws of nature. They are able to take shelter in case of danger, except when the danger moves at more than 10 knots. Slow down your engine close to the shore.
2. Stay focus on where you go.As the captain of a boat is responsible for anything that happened during their sailing, we remind captains always to have a lookout onboard.
3. Switch to neutral. Close to the shore or at sea as soon as you see any floating object. It can save you technical problems but above all it can save the lives of living beings.
4. Sharing is caring. Become an example of respect for nature in your behavior, your actions count. And spread the word.
5. Inform the professionals.As soon as you see an injured turtle, a turtle on a beach or people approaching turtles, contact Nature Foundation. The life of one of them may be in your hands.
