Know the limitations of your boat;
Any boat dealer or national sailing federation or yacht club will be pleased to advise you of local sea
schools, or competent instructors
It is the boat owner/operator's responsibility to:
Make sure you receive a full explanation of all systems from the person transferring ownership to you.
Congratulations on becoming the new owner of a: Elan Impression i40.1
Have the craft inspected by qualified personnel at regular intervals and whenever
a cause for concern is raised; and
Responsibility
Ensure that the anticipated wind and sea conditions will correspond to the design
category of your boat and that you and your crew are able to handle the boat in
these conditions;
Never sail when the operator is under the influence of drugs or alcohol;
Boating Experience
Reduce speed when there is limited visibility, rough water, people in the water
nearby, boats, or structures;
Ensure all crew receive suitable training, particularly with regards to location and
operation of safety equipment;
Ensure compliance with all legislation in place in the area of operation. These may
include requirements for the carriage of life saving equipment, licensing of the
helmsman and respect for the environment.
Ensure the craft is properly maintained at all time;
Follow the rules of the road;
Be aware of the crew/passenger's safety at all times;
Regardless of the craft's seaworthiness and its certified design category, protection from freak sea
and wind conditions cannot be guaranteed. Beware of offshore winds and currents. The ability,
experience and fitness of the crew, therefore, should be taken into consideration before making any
voyage.
WELCOME
If this is your first craft, or you are changing to a type of craft you are not familiar with, for your own
comfort and safety, ensure that you obtain handling and operating experience before assuming
command of the craft.
Keep a sharp lookout for people and objects in the water;

A recreational craft given design category A is considered to be designed to operate in winds of less
than Beaufort force 10 and the associated significant wave heights. Typically such conditions might be
encountered on extended voyages, for example across oceans, but can also occur inshore when
unsheltered from the wind and waves for several hundred nautical miles. Depending on atmospheric
conditions, winds can gust to about 32 m/s.

Running the engine to recharge the battery may not be effective. The alternator
only creates charging power at higher engine speeds, idling for long periods will
not generate enough power to recharge the battery.
Information
See table of batteries on previous page.
Do not disconnect all batteries while the engine is running; alternator and
wiring damage could occur.
Keep batteries clean and dry.
The life of some battery types is shortened if drained to zero charge. It is
recommended that a battery not be discharged more than 50 percent. If the battery
does become run down, recharge it as soon as possible.
Check the fluid levels in the cells (if appropriate for the battery type) approximately
every 4 weeks, and weekly in summer and hot zones.
Replenish only with distilled water. Do not use metal funnel.
If you need to charge a battery, use only a battery charger designed to charge
automotive/marine batteries. Use charger only when batteries are disconnected
from the boat's electrical circuit. Follow the charger instructions.
Battery Maintenance
Coat battery terminal clamps with silicone grease.

If your boat will not be used for several weeks remove the batteries from the boat
and connect them to a charger.

Caution
The fluid level must be between the lower and upper markings.
Batteries should be disconnected when not in use and especially while
the boat is unattended.

To avoid a power spike, turn OFF all main breakers before plugging IN
the shore power cord. Securely connect the power inlet of the boat and
the shore power receptacle. If the connection is broken and later re-
secured, the main breaker will trip. Connections must be secure for
uninterrupted dock-side service.
Caution
The RCD (residual current device) should be tested monthly by pressing
the “TEST” button. The RCD should trip “OFF” immediately. Reset the
RCD by flicking the switch back to “ON”. If the RCD does not trip “OFF”
immediately, there is a fault: disconnect all AC power sources and call a
qualified electrician to investigate.
