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 Owner’s Manual Supplement, please read the Sport Boat Owner’s Manual and all accessory
instructions for important safety standards and hazard information.
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 can result in cancellation of your warranty protection. Always check with
your dealer before making any modifications to your boat.
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 occupy-
ing the transom platform while underway is especially hazardous and will cause personal
injury or death.

Engine & Accessories Literature
•The engine and accessories installed on your boat come with their own operation and maintenance manuals.
•Read and understand 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.
Qualified Maintenance
•Failure to maintain your boat’s systems (listed in the warning above) as designed could violate the laws in your
jurisdiction and could expose you and other people to the danger of bodily injury or accidental death.
•Follow the instructions provided in the Sport Boat Owner’s Manual, this Owner’s Manual Supplement, the engine
owner’s manual and all accessory instruction sheets and manuals.
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.
To maintain the integrity and safety of your boat, allow only qualified personnel to perform
maintenance on, or in any way modify: The steering system, propulsion system, engine control
system, fuel system, environmental control system, electrical system or navigational system.
WARNING!
!
•To help seal thehull bottom and reduce the possibility of gelcoatblistering 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.

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 water-
craft can be fatal.
