And yes, everybody, irregardless of age or abilities or time-aboard, gets the orientation... every morning and every evening... until it becomes habit.
And the pop quiz every 3 days?
I never did test well

Re: Do you give guests an "Intro Class" to your boat?

Even at dockside EVERY person who steps aboard Monami is IMMEDIATELY shown where his/ her life jacket is located, if we are going out, they get the full rundown of how to deploy the EPIRB, shown the two radios basic, laminated distress call card and VHF radio Distress button, how to strap their jackets to the safety lines running over the decks and to the main cabins door, where the flares are stored and of course the four person, off shore life raft system too. I'm not planning on loosing a passenger by my mistakes or neglecting "their" personal safety.
