Boating Experience

If this is your first boat or if you are changing to a type of boat you are not familiar with, for your own comfort and

safety, get handling and operating experience before assuming command of your boat.

Take one of the boating safety classes offered by the U.S. Power Squadrons or the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary. For

more course information, including dates and locations of upcoming classes, contact the organizations directly:

•U.S. Power Squadrons: 1-888-FOR-USPS (1-888-367-8777) or on the Internet at: http://www.usps.org

•In Canada, for the CPS courses call 1-888-CPS-BOAT.

•U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary: 1-800-368-5647 or on the Internet at: http://www.cgaux.org

Outside the United States, your selling dealer, national sailing federation, or local boat club can advise you of local

sea schools or competent instructors.

Qualified Maintenance

Failure to maintain your boat’s systems (listed in the warning above) as designed could violate the laws in your juris-

diction and could expose yourself and others to the danger of bodily injury or accidental death.

Follow the maintenance instructions in:

Special Care for Moored Boats

•While moored, your boat’s hull bottom will collect marine growth that not only looks bad, but also reduces perfor-

mance, and could damage the gelcoat.

•As often as needed for your area, haul your boat out of the water and scrub the hull bottom with a bristle brush and

soap and water.

CONTROL HAZARD!

An experienced operator MUST be in control of your boat at ALL times. Do NOT operate your

boat while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

WARNING!

To maintain the safety of your boat, allow ONLY trained personnel to work on, or change, in

any way, the:

•Steering system

•Propulsion system

•Engine control system

•Fuel system

•Environmental control system

•Electrical system

•Navigation system

WARNING!

•This Owner’s Manual Supplement

•The Cruiser & Yacht Owner’s Manual

•The engine owner’s manual, and;

•All accessory literature.

•Applying an epoxy barrier coating to the hull bottom will help prevent gel coat blistering

while your boat is moored.

•Cover the barrier coating with several coats of anti-fouling paint.

•Many states regulate the chemical content of bottom paints in order to meet environmental

standards. Your local dealer can recommend bottom paints, and about the laws in effect in

your area.
