GENERAL INFORMATION 1
ABOUT THIS MANUAL
More and more people are joining the ranks of boat owners who find
enjoyment in the leisure activity of cruising. For this reason, this manu-
al is written for the first-time boat owner or operator. Even if you are
an experienced boater, you will still find much valuable information
regarding the safe operation and maintenance of your Seaswirl boat.
For your own safety and the safety of others, take the time to read this
entire manual before you take the boat out for the first time. Use it as a
guide to familiarize yourself with its systems and components. The infor-
mation in this manual will help you with its operation and maintenance.
The suppliers of more complex components, such as engines, pumps,
and electronics, supply their own manuals. They are included in your
Owner’s Packet. The suppliers of these products maintain their own
manufacturers’ warranties and service facilities. One of the first orders of
business should be to fill out each warranty card and mail it back to the
manufacturer to register your ownership.
Make sure you read and understand the safety, emergency, and operat-
ing procedures in this manual and pass this information along to your
family and passengers. Pay close attention to safety warnings.
Remember that along with the freedom and fun of cruising comes the
responsibility for the safety of your passengers, other boaters, and the
environment which we all share.
This manual is part of your boat’s equipment. Always keep it on board.
If you transfer ownership of the boat to someone else, give this manual
to the new owner. In some cases, this manual provides general infor-
mation; more specific information is available in the original equipment
manufacturer (OEM) manuals. This owner’s manual does not supersede
or change any of the original manufacturers’ specifications, operation
or maintenance instructions. If the information in this manual conflicts
with that in the OEM manuals, the OEM manuals take precedence.
Note: This manual may include information about systems and equip-
ment not provided on your boat. Check with your dealer if you have
any questions.

YOU AND YOUR NEW BOAT
If you are new to boating, you may not be familiar with some common
boating terms. Figure 1-1 lists some of these terms and identifies their
meaning in relation to a typical boat.
CERTIFICATION
All Seaswirl boats have National Marine Manufacturers Association
(NMMA) certification. This certification covers the following boat com-
ponents:
Engines Fuel Systems
Electrical Systems Mechanical Systems
Navigation Lights Hatches
Portlights
Construction of the hull begins with multiple layers of hand-laid fiber-
glass, bonded with polyester resin, providing a tough seaworthy hull.
The interior of your Seaswirl may also include high pressure laminates
and upholstery. Reasonable care and maintenance will keep the boat
looking like new as the years go by.

Some Seaswirl models have also been certified to carry the CE mark.
The CE mark certifies that the boat meets relevant parts of the
European Directive for Recreational Craft 94/25/E of the European
Parliament, including the International Organization for Standards
(ISO) and Recreational Marine Agreement Group (RMAG) guidelines in
effect at the time of manufacture.
WARRANTY
The Limited Warranty for your Seaswirl boat can be found in the vinyl
owner’s packet. Please read it carefully. The warranty becomes effec-
tive upon the date of purchase, but the warranty registration card
must be completed, signed and returned to Seaswirl Boats within 30
days of sale in order to obtain any warranty coverage. The registra-
tion card is inside the back cover of this manual. When you sign the
warranty registration card, you are telling us that you understand
the warranty’s terms and conditions. Seaswirl Boats provides no
other warranty for your boat. If you have any questions, please dis-
cuss them with your dealer or get in touch with our Customer
Service Department. Failure to follow warranty instructions will void
your warranty.
You need to properly fill out the warranty registration card and sign.
Make sure you mail the card to us to validate the warranty. A hull iden-
tification number is located on the starboard side of the boat’s tran-
som. Use this number for registration and to identify your boat for
warranty service.
The Federal Boat Safety Act of 1971 requires that all boat manufactur-
ers notify first time owners if any defect “which creates a substantial
risk of personal injury to the public” is discovered. In order for us to
comply with the law, if it becomes necessary, it is essential that your
completed warranty registration card with your name, address and the
boat serial number be completed and mailed to our Customer Service
Department.
If the warranty registration card is not returned, Seaswirl Boats will not
be able to notify you as the Federal Boat Safety Act requires. Failure to
return the card means that you waive any right to notification and/or
repair at Seaswirl’s expense of any unsafe condition for which notifica-
tion and/or repair would be required by Federal Boating Laws.

SERVICE
If you have a problem with your new boat as a result of workmanship or
materials, we want to correct it and get it back in service as quickly as
possible. Contact the Seaswirl dealer from whom you purchased the
boat. An authorized dealer must process all warranty repairs. If the deal-
er fails to remedy the cause of the problem, contact us within 30 days. It
is your responsibility to deliver the boat to the dealer for repair.
Information about service, replacement parts, or additional equipment
is available from your dealer or Seaswirl Boats. You can get in touch
with us directly at:

RESPONSIBILITIES
Boat Owner
Seaswirl Boats recommends that you set up an appointment with your
dealer to discuss all warranties. You should inspect the boat at the time
of delivery to verify that all systems and components are operating
safely and acceptably. We recommend that you refer to the engine
warranty certificate for initial inspection and service requirements. Be
sure to review the pre-delivery checklist for the boat and engine with
your dealer when you take delivery.
You need to record all important information about your boat and its
major components on the Boat Data Sheet. (You will find the Boat Data
Sheet at the end of this chapter.) After all the data has been entered,
make a photocopy and store at home or another safe place.
You are responsible for following proper procedures during the break-
in period. Check with your dealer if you have any questions. You
should also schedule the 20-hour checkup with your dealer. At the 20-
hour checkup, your dealer should perform an engine alignment check
according to recommended procedures as stated by the engine manu-
facturer in the engine owner’s manual. Failure to do so could result in
drive train damage, which is not covered under the warranty.
The operator is also responsible for complying with the following pro-
cedures and operational requirements:
• Registering the boat with the appropriate jurisdiction.
