I go solo, but only because it is so difficult to coordinate schedules. I'd prefer to be with someone else. My advice would be to put as much stress on safety as possible. Here are some things I do whether I'm alone or with a partner:
- Never assume other boats will see you
- Always wear a PFD
- Carry a VHF and know how to use it
- Carry a whistle or other loud device for getting attention
- Always be aware of your surroundings, and other boats
- Always carry drinking water
- Carry a cell phone
