1. "One of the biggest mistakes sailors make is not double-checking their charts and GPS. You'd be surprised how easy it is to misread a buoy or miss a waypoint. Also, relying too much on technology can lead to trouble if something goes haywire."

2. "A common error is underestimating the weather. Some sailors think they can just sail through anything, but not paying attention to changing conditions can really mess things up. And then there’s the classic mistake of not keeping a proper lookout – it’s all about staying aware of your surroundings!"
