The high performance sport boat, a high speed boat
w1th

1s
popular
with
certain
boaters.
It
falls somewhere between the family boat and a full racing craft. This type of boat demands:
• The best in equipment.
• Careful, secure assembly
of
all equipment
to
the boat.
• Driver knowledge
of
how
the boat will act under all operating conditions.
Driver skill

.
As
the operator
of
a high performance boat, you should also have an understanding of the dangers you may
encounter, and what you can do
to
enhance safety
while
obtaining full enjoyment
of
your boat.
The information
which
follows, should
not
be considered a substitute
for
the more detailed assistance and ad-
vice available from your local OMC-Johnson Dealer,
or

Boats capable
of
the very high speeds
of
a racmg craft deserve the best racmg safety eqUipment. So, in

performance boatmg is an exciting, exhilarating sport. The sport boater must, however, be considerate
of
others
who
may use the same waters. Make sure

to nearby homeowners, fishermen, swimmers, water skiers, sailors,
or
other powerboaters. Make common sense
