INTRODUCTION
It’s your leisure time! You earned it and you deserve it! You
have made an excellent choice by selecting a Lund boat to
round out your leisure time. Whether you’re out for a day of
water skiing, just taking a relaxing cruise or heading out
early in the morning for a day of fishing, you know you
have the best in quality and comfort.
Please take the time to read this manual before you take
your boat out the first time. Also read all literature supplied
with your boat by the manufacturers of the various
components and accessories used on your boat. In
particular, you want to become familiar with operating your
engine.
If you are a novice boater, you may not be familiar with the
terms experienced boaters use. Figure 1-1 will help you.
They list some of the common terms and how they apply to
a typical boat.
https://www.boat-manuals.com/lund/

INTRODUCTION
2
Before your first boating excursion, look your boat over and
become familiar with it. Find its components, gauges and
operating equipment, and learn how to use them. Your
outing will be safer and more enjoyable.
If a family member or friend operates your boat, be sure he
or she fully understands the controls and operation of the
boat. The helmsman is responsible for ensuring the safety
of the boat’s passengers and other water users.
Passengers should also be aware that courteous,
responsible riding is important.
This manual is part of your boat’s equipment. It does not
supersede or change any of the original manufacturer’s
specifications, operation or maintenance instructions.
Always keep it on board. If you transfer ownership of this
boat to someone else, be sure to give this manual to the
new owner.
HAZARD COMMUNICATION
STATEMENTS
Three types of hazard communication statements are used
throughout this manual to call attention to special
information, operating procedures and precautions for safe
operation of your boat.
The safety alert symbol means pay attention! Your
safety is involved! Failure to follow the recommendations
in a hazard communication statement may result in
property damage, personal injury, or death.
https://www.boat-manuals.com/lund/

3
The signal words DANGER, WARNING and CAUTION
identify hazards and the levels of hazard seriousness.
Their selection is based on the likely consequence of
human interaction with a hazard in terms of the probability
of injury and the degree of severity. Failure to follow the
recommendations contained in any of these statements
may result in some form of personal injury. Definitions for
identifying hazard levels with their respective signal words
are as follows:
Immediate hazards that WILL result in severe personal
injury or death.
Hazards or unsafe practices that COULD result in
severe personal injury or death.
Hazards or unsafe practices that COULD result in minor
personal injury or product or property damage.
https://www.boat-manuals.com/lund/

OWNER/OPERATOR ADVISORY
STATEMENTS
Advisory statements alert you to conditions that affect
equipment operation, maintenance and servicing practices.
An IMPORTANT statement indicates a procedure intended
to prevent damage to equipment or associated
components.
A NOTE statement is a general advisory statement relating
to equipment operation and maintenance procedures.
PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
It’s fun to be out on the water whether you’re fishing,
cruising or just soaking up sun. Unfortunately, not all
boaters are responsible individuals and their foolish
actions often spoil our waterways. Here are ten ways you
can help protect the aquatic environment as recommended
by the National Marine Manufacturers Association.
Practice them every time you go out, and you can help
assure that our waterways will remain clean and unspoiled
for years to come.
• Observe local and federal marine head rules.
• Empty the waste holding tank on shore
(if your boat has one).
• Know about and use legal bottom paints.
• Use biodegradable cleaning agents whenever
possible.
• Don’t litter on or off the water—take it home!
• Don’t top off fuel tanks and always clean up fuel
spills.
• Watch your wake and propeller wash.
• Keep your motors finely tuned.
• Control your bilge water.
• When fishing, practice “Catch and Release.”

GENERAL INFORMATION
This section of your boat manual contains important
information about your Lund boat and general procedures
to be followed before operating it.
CERTIFICATION
The bottom half of the capacity plate indicates that all Lund
boats have National Marine Manufacturers Association
(NMMA) certification. This is different from the maximum
capacities established by the U.S. Coast Guard. NMMA
certification means that the design of specific boat systems
complies with applicable federal regulations set forth by the
U.S. Coast Guard. This certification covers the following
components:
• Engines
• Fuel Systems
• Electrical Systems
• Mechanical Systems
• Navigation Lights
Lund boats also comply with the requirements of the
Canadian Coast Guard for Canadian certification.
HIGH-PERFORMANCE
PONTOON BOATS
Lund offers an excellent line of high performance pontoon
boats. All high performance pontoon boats have specially
designed pontoons that have custom lift pads, also called
strakes. Because of their size and shape, they are well
suited for larger horsepower engines. This type of pontoon
improves handling characteristics at all speeds and
provides a very smooth ride. A power steering system
allows the operator greater control while maneuvering. It
also eliminates the prop torque that would otherwise give
the boat the tendency to turn to the right.
https://www.boat-manuals.com/lund/

INTRODUCTION
6
CAPACITY PLATE
If your boat is less than 20 feet (6.1 m) long, the U.S.
Coast Guard requires that the manufacturer install a
capacity plate stating the maxi-mum load in pounds
(persons and gear) the boat can carry safely under normal
conditions and the motor’s maximum horsepower. The
U.S. Coast Guard establishes these load capacity ratings.
You, the operator, are responsible for using common
sense and sound judgment when loading your boat. Give
yourself an added margin for safety in turbulent waters.
Pontoon boats tend to remain stable under most operating
conditions. Whether you own a pontoon boat or a deck-
boat, remember that overloading and improper distribution
of weight are significant causes of accidents. Keep weight
below maximum limits for safety in turbulent waters.
Overloading is a violation of U.S. Coast Guard regulations.
Do not exceed your boat’s capacity rating. An
overpowered boat can become unstable, resulting in a
loss of control or capsizing. An over-loaded boat can
become hard to handle. Overloading can also reduce
freeboard and increase the danger of flooding or
swamping, particularly in rough water.
IMPORTANT: Your Lund warranty will be void if you
exceed the recommended capacity horsepower rating.
https://www.boat-manuals.com/lund/

7
NOTE: the capacity plate on your boat may differ from
illustration if your boat was purchased outside of the United
States.
HULL IDENTIFICATION NUMBER
Along with a capacity plate, each Lund boat has a hull
identification number assigned by the U.S. Coast Guard.
The number on your pontoon boat is located on the top aft
end of the starboard pontoon. The number for pontoon
boats will begin with US LBB. For example: 0000000.

OWNER/OPERATOR’S LOGS AND
RECORDS
Two forms you will find very helpful are the following:
• Boat Data Record is used to record all important
information about your boat and the major components
installed.
• Service/Maintenance Log provides a record of
maintenance work completed on your boat.
Refer to Chapter 8 for more information and copies of
these forms.
EDUCATION
Courses on boat handling and seamanship are conducted
by volunteer organizations such as the U.S. Power
Squadrons, the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary and the
American Red Cross. These courses will sharpen your
boating skills and bring you up-to-date on current rules and
regulations even if you are a veteran boater. See Chapter
8 for more information.

dealer have specific responsibilities.
