Bailing techniques refer to methods used to remove water from a boat or other watercraft. Commonly employed in small boats, these techniques can include using a bucket or a bailer, which is a tool designed specifically for scooping out water. The goal is to keep the vessel afloat and prevent it from capsizing due to excess water. In addition to manual methods, some boats are equipped with automatic bilge pumps that activate when water levels rise. These pumps help maintain safety and stability by continuously removing water, allowing the crew to focus on navigation and other tasks without constant worry about bailing.
