advises mariners to check and ensure all life saving devices
remain free of ice. Mariners not trained to operate in these

A Gale Warning means winds of 34 to 47 knots are imminent or
occurring. Operating a vessel in gale conditions requires
experience and properly equipped vessels. It is highly

harbor prior to the onset of gale conditions.
