1、 Yacht safety is the cornerstone of industrial development and the guarantee for high-quality industrial development. Without safety, there can be no development of the yacht industry;

3、 Yacht drivers must abide by laws and regulations, drive yachts with caution, effectively ensure the safety of yachts, passengers, and third parties, and actively assume relevant responsibilities for yacht accidents caused by improper use;

5、 Take yacht safety accidents seriously, handle them in accordance with the law, distinguish between productive and non productive behaviors, clarify the responsible parties and the rights and responsibilities of relevant departments, and avoid attributing water safety accidents solely to maritime departments;

6、 Call on relevant departments to face the market demand for yacht sailing and water activities, accelerate the formulation of relevant regulations on yacht leasing and water activities, effectively protect the rights and interests of all parties, and promote local economic development;

7、 Industry associations should actively assume the role of bridges, links, and communication, promote the importance of yacht safety, guide member units to strengthen self-discipline, enhance safety awareness, use yachts in compliance with laws and regulations, unite industry resources, and promote the development of local yacht industry;

8、 The management department should administer and enforce the law in accordance with the law, avoid excessive law enforcement for the sake of exemption, eliminate illegal administration and law enforcement, and recommend the formulation of sustainable laws and regulations that are in line with international standards to protect law-abiding behavior, severely punish illegal activities, and create a favorable environment for industry development;

9、 The yacht industry is an important part of the marine economy. We call on all regions to encourage the development of the yacht industry in a precise and orderly manner, balance the relationship between safety accidents and industrial development, and promote the healthy development of the yacht industry;

10、 Small and medium-sized yachts are the mainstay of the yacht consumption market and the main force of the yacht economy. The development of the yacht industry should focus on small and medium-sized yachts, while also taking into account large luxury yachts. Proper guidance should be given to promote the healthy development of the yacht industry.
