These hazardous conditions may result in poor vessel handling and steering response, broaching, overturned dinghies and kayaks, slips and falls on slippery decks, rub damage along docks and seawalls, and dragging anchors. Low visibility will make navigation difficult. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Make sure all running lights are on. Remember to use your radar and compass.
