Safety
All boats have their own unique handling characteristics, so take time to familiarize yourself
with how your boat maneuvers in various conditions. Basic seamanship is beyond the scope
of this owner’s manual, but we would like to go over a few fundamentals.
! It is your responsibility to be aware of and comply with all relevant safety
regulations.
! In all water sports, you should have reasonable swimming ability.
! Always respect the sea and the weather, as both can change rapidly and have
surprised even the most seasoned mariners.
! Always use U.S. Coast Guard or C.E. approved life jackets, as this is your assurance
that the life jackets can provide sufficient buoyancy in the water.
! We strongly suggest that all boater enroll in one of the excellent water safety courses
offered by the Power Squadron or Coast Guard Auxiliary.
