Illegal to fell a tree more than 5" diam.
Be wary of felling trees - always use guide ropes.
Boating
Choice of boats.
1) Consideration of type of water.
2) Be wary of "gift" boats. They are often no good.
3) Be careful of cranky boats. Think of public image.
4) Glass fibre is better for maintenance.
5) If possible give each patrol their own boat.
