Engine & Accessories Guidelines
•Your boat’s engine and accessories were selected to provide optimum performance and service.
•Installing a different engine or other accessories may cause unwanted handling characteristics.
•Should you choose to install a different engine or to add accessories that will affect the boat’s running trim, have
an experienced marine technician perform a safety inspection and handling test before operating your boat again.
Certain modifications to your boat will result in cancellation of your warranty protection.
•Always check with your dealer before making any modifications to your boat.
Propeller
•Keep the propeller in good repair and at the correct pitch for your particular situation.
•A slightly bent or nicked propeller will adversely affect the performance of your boat.
Engine & Accessories Literature
•The engine and accessories installed on your boat come with their own operation and maintenance manuals.
•Read these manuals before using the engine and accessories.
•Unless noted otherwise, all engine and accessory literature referred to in this Supplement is included in your
owner’s packet.
When storing your boat please refer to your engine’s operation and maintenance manuals.
NOTICE
ENGINE DAMAGE HAZARD!
The factory standard propeller may not be the best for your particular boat and load
conditions. Refer to the engine manual for engine RPM ratings. The engine should reach,
but not exceed its full rated RPM when full-throttle is applied.
Immediately contact your local Bayliner dealer if:

Special Care For Moored Boats
•Whether moored in saltwater or freshwater, your boat will collect marine growth on its hull bottom.
•This will detract from the boat’s beauty, greatly affect its performance and may damage the gelcoat.
•Periodically haul the boat out of the water and scrub the hull bottom with a bristle brush and a solution of soap
and water.
Safety Standards
•Your boat’s mechanical and electrical systems were designed to meet safety standards in effect at the time it
was built.
•Some of these standards were mandated by law, all of them were designed to insure your safety, and the safety of
other people, vessels and property.
In addition to this Supplement, please read the Cruiser & Yacht Owner’s Manual and all accessory instructions for
important safety standards and hazard information.
•To help seal thehull bottom and reduce the possibility of gelcoat blistering on moored boats,
apply an epoxy barrier coating.
•The barrier coating should be covered with several coats of anti-fouling paint.
•Many states regulate the chemical content of bottom paints in order to meet environmental
standards. Check with your local dealer about recommended bottom paints, and about the
laws in effect in your area.
NOTICE
FALLING and ROTATING PROPELLER HAZARD!
•NEVER allow anyone to ride on parts of the boat not designed for
such use.
•Sitting on seat backs, lounging on the forward deck, bow riding,
gunwale riding or occupying the transom platform while underway is especially hazardous
and will cause personal injury or death.
DANGER!
!
ROTATING PROPELLER and CARBON MONOXIDE
POISONING HAZARD!
•NEVER allow anyone to occupy, or hang from, the
back deck or swim platform while the engine(s)
are running.
•Teak surfing, dragging, or water skiing within 20 feet
of a moving watercraft can be fatal.
DANGER!
!
DANGER
PERSONAL SAFETY HAZARD!
ALWAYS secure the anchor and other loose objects before getting underway. The anchor and
other items that are not properly secured can come loose when the boat is moving and cause
personal injury or death.

Carbon Monoxide (CO)
Facts about CO
•CO poisoning causes a significant number of boating deaths each year.
•Called the "silent killer", CO is an extremely toxic, colorless, odorless and tasteless gas.
•CO can harm or even kill you inside or outside your boat.
•CO can affect you whether you’re underway, moored, or anchored.
•CO symptoms are similar to seasickness or alcohol intoxication.
•CO can make you sick in seconds. In high enough concentrations, even a few breaths can be fatal.
•Breathing CO blocks the ability of your blood to carry oxygen.
•The effects are cumulative, even low levels of exposure can result in injury or death.
Factors That Increase the Effects of CO Poisoning
•Age
•Smokers or people exposed to high concentrations of cigarette smoke
•Consumption of alcohol
•Lung disorders
•Heart problems
•Pregnancy
•Carbon monoxide gas (CO) is colorless, odorless, tasteless, and
extremely dangerous.
•All engines, generators, and fuel burning appliances produce CO
as exhaust.
•Prolonged exposure to low concentrations or very quick exposure to high
concentrations will cause BRAIN DAMAGE or DEATH.
•Teak surfing, dragging, or water skiing within 20 feet of a moving
watercraft can be fatal.

Where and How CO Can Accumulate
Stationary Conditions That Increase CO Accumulations Include:
To correct stationary situations A and/or B:
•Close all windows, portlights and hatches.
•If possible, move your boat away from source of CO.
Running Conditions That Increase CO Accumulations Include:
To correct running situations C and/or D:
•Trim bow down.
•Open windows and canvas.
•When possible, run boat so that prevailing winds help dissipate exhaust.
How to Protect Yourself and Others From CO
•Know where and how CO may accumulate in and around your boat (see above).
•Maintain fresh air circulation throughout the boat at all times.
•Know where your engine and generator exhaust outlets are located and keep everyone away from these areas.
•Never sit on, or hang onto, the back deck or swim platform while the engine(s) are running.
•Never enter the areas under swim platforms where exhaust outlets are located.
•Although CO can be present without the smell of exhaust fumes, if exhaust fumes are detected on the boat, take
immediate action to dissipate these fumes.
•Treat symptoms of seasickness as possible CO poisoning. Get the person into fresh air immediately. Seek medical
attention—unless you’re sure it’s not CO.
•Install and maintain CO monitors inside your boat. Do not ignore any alarm. Replace monitors as recommended
by the monitor manufacturer.
•Follow the checklists provided on the next page.
•Get a Vessel Safety Check.
For information on how to get a free VESSEL SAFETY CHECK, visit www.vesselsafetycheck.org or contact your
local U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary or United States Power Squadrons®.
•U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary: 1-800-368-5647 or on the Internet at: http://www.cgaux.org
•U.S. Power Squadrons: 1-888-FOR-USPS (1-888-367-8777) or on the Internet at: http://www.usps.org
A. Using engine, generator, or other fuel burn-
ing device when boat is moored in a con-
fined space.
B. Mooring too close to another boat that is
using its engine, generator, or other fuel
burning device.
C. Running boat with trim angle of bow too high. D. Running boat without through ventilation
(station wagon effect).

CO Checklists
Trip Checklist
❏Make sure you know where the exhaust outlets are located on your boat.
❏Educate all passengers about the symptoms of CO poisoning and where CO may accumulate.
❏When docked, or rafted with another boat, be aware of exhaust emissions from the other boat.
❏Listen for any change in exhaust sound, which could indicate an exhaust component failure.
❏Test the operation of each CO monitor by pressing the test button.
Monthly Checklist
❏Make sure all exhaust clamps are in place and secure.
❏Look for exhaust leaking from exhaust system components. Signs include rust and/or black streaking, water
leaks, or corroded or cracked fittings.
❏Inspect rubber exhaust hoses for burned, cracked, or deteriorated sections. All rubber hoses should be pliable and
free of kinks.
Annual Checklist
Have a Qualified Marine Technician:
❏Replace exhaust hoses if cracking, charring, or deterioration is found.
❏Ensure that your engines and generators are properly tuned, and well maintained.
❏Inspect each water pump impeller and the water pump housing. Replace if worn. Make sure cooling systems are
in working condition.
❏Inspect all metallic exhaust components for cracking, rusting, leaking, or loosening. Make sure they check the
cylinder head gasket, exhaust manifold, water injection elbow, and the threaded adapter nipple between the man-
ifold and the elbow.
❏Clean, inspect, and confirm proper operation of the generator cooling water anti-siphon valve (if equipped).
CO Monitor
•Do not disconnect the CO monitor.
•Read the manufacturer’s instructions for your CO monitor. If you did not receive the manufacturer’s
instructions, call [phone] and one will be mailed to you.
If your boat is not equipped with a CO monitor, consider purchasing one from your dealer or marine supply store.
•The stereo memory and the CO monitor place a small, but constant drain on the battery.
•If your boat will be unattended for an extended amount of time, plug into shore power with
the battery charger turned On.
