1. INTRODUCTION__PAGE 3
1.1 ABOut this OWnER’sMAnuAL
The purpose of this owner’s manual is to help you to use your boat in a safe and enjoyable
way.The manual includes detailed information about the boat, its equipment and accesso-
ries, as well as instructions for use and correct maintenance of the boat. Please read the
manual carefully and familiarise yourself with your boat before using it.
At Anytec, we believe that you shall be free to choose a suitable outboard engine for your
specic needs. For this reason, the boat manual cannot be very detailed on engine related
topics. Often, a reference to the engine manual or other specialised components is made.
We advise you to read the engine and engine instrumentation manuals carefully, and do not
hesitate to ask for help from experts.
Likewise, the boat may have been customised or modied by another party than Anytec,
either when new or later in its lifetime.This manual alone may not be enough If your boat
deviates from the data, standard equipment and optional equipment specied in this man-
ual. Please consult the party who modied the boat and any manuals provided by them.
The owner’s manual alone is not a sufcient source of information on seamanship and
boating safety. If this is your rst boat or the boat type is not familiar to you, ensure your
safety and comfort by obtaining sufcient experience in handling and using the boat before
you assume the responsibilities of the boat master.Your boat dealer, local boating clubs and
national motor boat and sailing associations will provide you with more information about
local training in boating and will be able to recommend qualied instructors.
In some countries, operation of the craft may require a permit or authorisation, and special
regulations may apply. Your boat may also have to be registered with the proper navigation
authorities. A Declaration of Conformity is part of the documents that you receive with
the boat and it must be kept aboard with other ofcial documents at all times, and may be
mandatory when registering the boat.
This owner’s manual is not a detailed service and troubleshooting guide. In case of prob-
lems please contact your local Anytec dealer. Modications that affect the safety features
of the boat are to be performed only with the builder’s written authorisation.The builder
assumes no responsibility for unauthorised modications. Always keep your boat in good
condition and make allowance for the deterioration that may occur over time. Be careful
to observe any signs of wear caused by age, heavy use or abuse.Any boat, no matter how
strong it is, may sustain severe damage if used inappropriately.
Always adjust the speed and the heading of your boat to suit the prevailing sea conditions.
Make sure the forecasted wind and sea conditions match the design category of your boat
and that you and your crew can navigate the boat in the conditions that may arise.Wind
and sea conditions for design category C range from storm to strong wind with a danger
of unusual waves and gusts.These are dangerous conditions that necessitate a skilled and
t crew and a well-maintained boat.

If your craft is equipped with a life raft, study its instructions carefully.The boat must be
equipped with the appropriate safety equipment (life vests, safety harnesses, etc.) as re-
quired for the boat type and the weather conditions. In some countries, this equipment
is compulsory.The crew must be familiar with the correct use and operation of all safety
equipment and be able to handle the boat in emergencies (including rescuing a person who
has fallen overboard, towing, etc.).Yachting schools and clubs arrange rescue training and
practice opportunities on a regular basis.
Everyone aboard the craft should wear a suitable personal otation device (life vest or
boating vest). Cold waters quickly reduce the ability to swim and climb onboard, so fast
assistance is crucial. Please note that in some countries national boating regulations may
require everyone aboard to wear a personal otation device whenever on board.
Finally, please pay respect to the environment by complying with good practice as well as
local, national and international (Marpol) regulations.Thank you!
1.2 GEnERAL DEsCRiptiOn
The boat is primarily intended for private and leisure use.The boat has a bow cockpit and
a stern cockpit.The stern cockpit can be covered by a canopy and closed by a front door.
The boat is of single hull type entirely made of aluminum, so are the handrails and cleats.
The boat is designed and built according to the standards for CE approval in category C
and is designed to be propelled by a single outboard engine.
1.3 CRAft iDEntifiCAtiOn nuMBER (Cin)
The starboard stern storage engraves the Craft Identication Number. All correspondence
related to the boat must include the CIN.

1.4 ExpLAnAtiOn Of sAfEty LABELs
The labels that advise the owner/operator regarding necessary safety precautions are
mounted at the key locations of your boat (refer chapter 3.7 to learn their location).These
safety precautions should be followed while operating/servicing the equipment and hence
are duplicated in this manual. These precautions are not all-inclusive. Always follow the
recommended instructions given in this manual while operating your boat.
• Do not remove or obstruct any safety label.
• Replace the labels which become illegible; you can obtain this replacement by calling
your dealer.
This manual includes labels explained to highlight particularly important topics. They are
divided into 4 different categories as explained below:
DANGER—Immediate hazards will result in severe personal injury or death if the warning is
ignored.
WARNING—Hazards or unsafe practices which can result in personal injury or death if the
warning is ignored.
CAUTION—Hazards or unsafe practices which may result in personal injury, product or property
damage if the warning is ignored.
NOTE— Provides information which is important to make proper operation or maintenance.
1.5 DEALER REspOnsiBiLitiEs
In addition to a pre-delivery check and service of the boat, your dealer is to provide:
• A description and demonstration of the safety systems, features, instruments and
controls on your boat
• An orientation in the general operation of your boat
• A review of all warranty information and how to obtain warranty service
• The Owner Information Package
If you do not receive all of these, or have any questions, contact your dealer.

1.8 sECuRMARk Anti-thEft MARkinG AnD tRACkinG systEM
Your boat has a unique code number sprayed in different places of your boat: to prevent
theft, and locate the boats after a theft. It is visible through special tools used by the au-
thorities.The code is added at the factory and enables them to access the boat and owner
details from a database.
The SecurMark system requires a subscription and Anytec pre-pays it for the rst 12
months after you register your ownership details. We encourage you to activate Secur-
Mark and continue the subscription after the rst 12 months of free service. You may also
mark and register your engine. Ask your dealer for help to register and provide further
information if needed.Anytec bag provides the printed info from SecurMark.

2. OPERATING THE BOAT
Before operating the boat for the rst time, make sure that you read and understand the operation
and safety topics given in owner’s manual.
2.1 sAfEty ROutinEs BEfORE LEAvinG shORE
Familiarise yourself with this owner’s manual. Always check the following items before
leaving the shore:
2.1.1 Weather and forecast
Consider the wind, waves and visibility.Are the design category, size and equipment of your
boat, as well as the skills of the skipper and crew, sufcient for going to the water?
In strong winds and rough seas all portholes, doors, hatches and vents must be closed to
prevent water from getting into/onto the boat.
2.1.2 Loading
Do not overload the boat, distribute the loads appropriately. For stability: do not place
heavy loads high up (refer to chapter 3.3, 3.4 and 3.5).You can always check the CE-plate
for maximum allowed loading.
2.1.3 Passengers
Ensure that there are life jackets for everybody on board and instruct passengers to be
seated while the boat is in motion. Refer chapter 3.6 for the location of passengers. Make
sure all members of the crew understand their specic tasks, before leaving the shore. It is
recommended that at least 2 passengers can operate the boat.
2.1.4 Fuel
Check that there is enough fuel, plus a reserve tank for harsh weather etc. Look for any
fuel leaks.
2.1.5 Engine
Check the functioning and condition of steering, electrical equipment and batteries, also
carry out the routine checks specied in the engine instructions handbook.
2.1.6 Fastening of objects and closing of doors and hatches
Make sure everything on board is secured appropriately (preferably stored in the hatches)
in the event of high winds, fast maneuverers and rough seas. Check that the deck drains
are not blocked. Close and secure hatches to avoid water ingress.
2. OPERATING THE BOAT__PAGE 7

2.1.7 Nautical charts
While navigating on unfamiliar waters, ensure that you have nautical charts covering a suf-
ciently large area. Even if you are having a chart plotter, you should carry regular charts
onboard.There is always a risk for technical malfunction of electronic devices; therefore,
regular charts are also important.
2.1.8 Safety check of the boat
• Check that hatches are closed and watertight.
• Ventilate the stern sofa storage where batteries are installed.Ventilate the bow sofa
storage where the Webasto fuel tank (optional) is installed; to remove any gases or
fumes.
• Make sure that at least one person onboard knows the location of the reghting
equipment.
• Check that bilge water is at minimum, and the electrical pump is working (manual
operation).
• Check the navigation lights, if you expect darkness.
• Check for any leakage of water into the boat/fuel from tanks/fuel lines.
2.1.9 Inform about your route
Always inform someone on the shore about your planned route, to enable fast support in
case of problems.
2.1.10 Safety equipment
The sea can be unpredictable. Be prepared by carrying the following equipment, as a min-
imum, at all times:
• Life jackets for each person onboard
• Appropriate weatherproof clothing
• Compass
• Charts (printed)
• Anchor and line
• Towing and mooring ropes
• First-aid kit and thermal blanket
• Bucket
• Emergency ares/signals
2. OPERATING THE BOAT__PAGE 8

• VHF radio and water protected GSM phone (subject to coverage)
• Binoculars
• Knife (to cut tangled ropes)
• Drinking water
2.2 EMERGEnCy EnGinE shutDOWn sWitCh
An engine shutdown safety switch is built into the engine control; it incorporates a shut-
off switch and a lanyard. Before operating the boat, connect one end of the lanyard to the
shut-off switch while the other end to the operator.
If the engine needs an urgent shut down: pull the lanyard cord to release it from the shut-
off switch, which in turn shuts down the engine.This switch is designed to shut the engine
off when the boat operator leaves the control station, either accidentally by falling into the
boat, or by being ejected overboard.
The lanyard should be long enough to prevent unintentional activation. Do not let the
lanyard become entangled and replace it if worn.
Wear the lanyard at all times while operating the boat. Use it to stop only in an emergency. DO
NOT use it to shut off the engine during normal operation.
2.3 MAn-OvERBOARD pREvEntiOn AnD RECOvERy
Other areas must not be occupied when underway, due to the risk of falling potentially into
the water. If a person has fallen into the water in calm seas, the person can use the rescue
ladder located on the stern platform, refer gure below.
1. Safety Ladder
2. OPERATING THE BOAT__PAGE 9

1. Check the re-ghting equipment at regular intervals; indicated on the equipment.
2. Replace portable re extinguisher equipment, if expired or discharged, with devices
of same re-ghting capacity.
3. Ensure that the re-ghting equipment is readily accessible when the boat is occu-
pied.
A rotating propeller can be harmful for a swimmer or person who has fallen overboard, or a per-
son using the ladder to board the boat or to enter the water. Shut down the engine and activate
the emergency switch (dead man’s switch) if there is any person in the water behind the engine,
and always before using the ladder.
2.4 fiRE pREvEntiOn
Fire is a serious boating hazard; because boats burn quickly. Do not remain onboard and
ght a re for longer. If the re is out of control and cannot be put out with the re sup-
pression equipment onboard, abandon the ship immediately.
It is the ultimate responsibility of the boat owner to inspect and maintain the boat’s re
prevention and re-ghting equipment. This chapter covers re prevention and ghting
measures related to the fuel-driven systems onboard the boat. For details of each system/
component, please refer to their specic chapters (e.g. chapter on stove, heater and fuel
tank).
2.4.1 Fire extinguisher
The re extinguisher is located inside the starboard pulpit, behind the door. A safety label
is attached on the pulpit to show the location. Make sure you know how to remove it and
use it.
The boat, when in service, shall always be equipped with the following portable re extin-
guisher class:
Fire rating: 13A 89B C with a minimum of 2 kg capacity.
2. OPERATING THE BOAT__PAGE 10
The boat owner/operator should:
Always turn off the engine and activate the emergency (dead-man) switch before using the ladder.
The ladder can be pulled down by a person already in the water. In harsh weather, or if the person
is physically not able to climb, it may be hard to use the ladder alone and help from a person on-
board may be needed. Therefore, it is recommended for two persons onboard, especially during
harsh weather conditions.
Chapter 4.8 further describes MOB rescue/swim ladder.

Never obstruct passageways to exits/hatches, safety controls (fuel valves, LPG valves, electrical
switches, etc.), portable re extinguishers and re ports; never allow unqualied personnel to
modify any of the boat’s systems. Have the re-ghting equipment checked at the intervals indicat-
ed on the equipment.

4. Inform the crew members and passengers about the location and operation of the
re-ghting equipment, the re port, escape routes and exits.
5. Unlock any deck hatches to enable reghting inside storage areas and keep the
re port free.
6. Keep the bilges clean and check for fuel and gas vapors or fuel leaks frequently.

2.4.2 Fire port
1. Fire port
2.4.3 Refueling
Before you start to ll the engine fuel tank, turn off the engine and natural-
ly any cigarettes or any other open ames like stoves, candles or lamps with
ames. It is not allowed to use switches or appliances that can cause spark
formation during fueling.
When lling the fuel tank, do not use a plastic funnel between the fuel gun or fuel contain-
er and the boat, as it prevents discharging the electric charge difference between the fuel
pistol and the lling tting and could cause a spark.
Always clean up any spillage immediately after fueling.
Loose reserve fuel containers onboard, should be stored in one of the stern storages
behind the canopy garage (not the stern sofas in the cockpit!). They are ventilated and
drained. Bow sofa-storages can also be used; they are ventilated but not drained.Always
check fuel containers before each trip to detect leakages or smell of fumes.
The stern cockpit U-sofa storage is equipped with a re port. The port makes it possible to
detect and ght a re below deck (bilge/tank area). The access to the re port is through
the U-sofa central hatch. The re port location is shown on the below gure. It has a
transparent cover, and an opening suitable for the re extinguisher nozzle. In case of re
inside the bilge/ below deck area, introduce the nozzle to the re port opening and activate
the extinguisher. Replace the re port if worn or damaged.
