IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Warranty and Warranty Registration Cards
The Denali Limited Warranty Statement is included with your boat. It has been written to be
clearlystatedandeasilyunderstood. Ifyouhaveanyquestionsafterreadingthewarranty,please
contact the Pursuit Customer Relations Department.
Pursuit, engine manufacturers, and the suppliers of major components maintain their own
manufacturer's warranty and service facilities. It is important that you properly complete the
warranty registration cards included with your boat and engines and mail them back to the
manufacturer to register your ownership. This should be done within 15 days of the date of
purchaseandbeforetheboatisputintoservice. Aformforrecordingthisinformationisprovided
atthebeginningofthismanual. Thisinformationwillbeimportantforyouandservicepersonnel
to know, if and when you may need service or technical information.
The boat warranty registration requires the Hull Identification Number “HIN” which is
located on the starboard side of the transom, just below the rubrail. The engine warranty
registration requires the engine serial number(s). Please refer to the engine owner's manual for
the location of the serial number(s).
IMPORTANT:
All boat manufacturers are required by the Federal Boat Safety Act of 1971 to notify first time
owners in the event any defect is discovered “which creates a substantial risk of personal injury
to the public.” It is essential that we have your warranty registration card complete with
your name and mailing address in our files so that we can comply with the law if it should
become necessary.
Product Changes
Pursuit is committed to the continuous improvement of our boats. As a result, some of the
equipment described in this manual or pictured in the catalog may change or no longer be
available. Pursuit reserves the right to change standard equipment, optional equipment
andspecificationswithoutnoticeorobligation. Ifyouhavequestionsaboutthe equipment on
your Pursuit, please contact the Pursuit Customer Relations Department.
Transferring the Warranty
For a transfer fee, S2 Yachts will extend warranty coverage to subsequent owners of Pursuit
models for the duration of the original warranty period. Please refer to the Denali Limited
Warranty Statement for the procedure to transfer the warranty.
To take advantage of this program, notification of the change of ownership, including the new
owner's name, address and telephone number together with the appropriate fee, must be sent to

OWNER'S/OPERATOR'S
RESPONSIBILITIES
Registration and Numbering
Federal law requires that all undocumented vessels equipped with propulsion machinery be
registered in the state of principal use. A certificate of number will be issued upon registering
the boat. These numbers must be displayed on your boat. The owner/operator of a boat must
carry a valid certificate of number whenever the boat is in use. When moved to a new state of
principal use, the certificate is valid for 60 days.
Inorder tobe valid, the numbers mustbe installed to the proper specifications. Check withyour
dealer or State Boating Authority for numbering requirements. The Coast Guard issues the
certificate of number in Alaska; all others are issued by the state.
Insurance
In most states, the boat owner is legally responsible for damages or injuries he or someone else
operating the boat causes. Responsible boaters carry adequate liability and property damage
insurance for their boat. You should also protect the boat against physical damage and theft.
Some states have laws requiring minimum insurance coverage. Contact your dealer or State
Boating Authority for information on the insurance requirements in your boating area.
Reporting Boating Accidents
All boating accidents must be reported by the operator or owner of the boat to the proper marine
law enforcement authority for the state in which the accident occurred. Immediate notification
is required if a person dies or disappears as a result of a recreational boating accident.
If a person dies or there are injuries requiring more than first aid, a formal report must be filed
within 48 hours.
Aformalreportmustbemadewithin10daysforaccidentsinvolvingmorethan$500.00damage
or the complete loss of a boat.

an accident. If you need additional information regarding accident reporting, please call the
Boating Safety Hotline, 800-368-5647.
Education
Ifyouarenotanexperienced boater, we recommend that the boat operatorandotherpeoplethat
normally accompany the operator, enroll in a boating safety course. Organizations such as the
U.S. Power Squadrons, United States Coast Guard Auxiliary, State Boating Authorities and the
American Red Cross offer excellent boating educational programs. These courses are worth-
whileevenfor experienced boaters tosharpenyourskills or bring youuptodate on current rules

and regulations. They can also help in providing local navigational information when moving
to a new boating area. Contact your dealer, State Boating Authority or the Boating Safety
Hotline, 800-368-5647 for further information on boating safety courses.
Required Equipment
U.S.CoastGuardregulationsrequirecertainequipmenton eachboat. TheCoastGuardalsosets
minimum safety standards for vessels and associated equipment. To meet these standards some
oftheequipmentmustbeCoastGuardapproved. “Coast GuardApprovedEquipment”hasbeen
determined to be in compliance with USCG specifications and regulations relating to perfor-
mance, construction, or materials. The equipment requirements vary according to the length,
type of boat, and the propulsion system. Some of the Coast Guard equipment is described in the
Safety Equipment chapter of this manual. For a more detailed description, obtain “Federal
Requirements And Safety Tips For Recreational Boats” by contacting the Boating Safety
Hotline [phone] or your local marine dealer or retailer.
Some state and local agencies impose similar equipment requirements on waters that do not fall
under Coast Guard jurisdiction. These agencies may also require additional equipment that is
not required by the Coast Guard. Your dealer or local boating authority can provide you with
additional information for the equipment requirements for your boating area.

PROPULSION SYSTEM
1.1 General
ThePursuit2670Denaliisdesignedtobepoweredwithtwin2-cycleor4-cycleoutboardmotors.
Most 2-cycle outboard motors use an oil injection system. Oil is automatically injected in the
engines and mixed at the proper ratio from oil tanks located behind access hatches in the stern
compartment.
4-cycleoutboardengines do not useanoilinjection system and arenotequippedwith remote oil
tanks. They have an oil sump in the crankcase that must be kept full of the type of oil
recommendedbytheenginemanufacturer. Theoilmustbecheckedbeforeeachuseandchanged
regularly.
Eachmanufacturerofthevariousoutboardmotorsprovidesanowner’sinformationmanualwith
itsproduct. It isimportant thatyou read the manual very carefully and become familiar with the
proper care and operation of the engine and drive system. A warranty registration card has been
furnished with each new engine and can be located in the engine owner’s manual. All
information requested on this card should be filled out completely by the purchaser and then
returned to the respective engine manufacturer as soon as possible.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SERVICE ANY ENGINE OR DRIVE COMPONENT WITHOUT BE-
ING TOTALLY FAMILIAR WITH THE SAFE AND PROPER SERVICE PROCEDURES.
CERTAIN MOVING PARTS ARE EXPOSED AND CAN BE DANGEROUS TO SOMEONE
UNFAMILIAR WITH THE OPERATION AND FUNCTION OF THE EQUIPMENT.
1.2 Drive Systems Corrosion
Each outboard motor is a complete drive system with the gear case being just forward of the
propeller and connected to the power head with a vertical drive shaft. Other than the routine
maintenance outlined in the engine owner’s manual, there is little to be concerned with unless
the boat is to be kept in saltwater for extended periods of time. Then, the main concerns are
marine growth and galvanic corrosion.
Marinegrowthoccurswhencomponentsareleftin the water for extended periods andcancause
poorperformanceorpermanentdamagetotheexposedcomponents. Thetypeofgrowthandhow
quickly it occurs is relative to the water conditions in your boating area. Water temperature,
pollution, current, etc. can have an effect on marine growth.
Galvanic corrosion is the corrosion process occurring when different metals are submerged in
an electrolyte. Sea water is an electrolyte and submerged engine components must be properly
protected. Outboard motors are equipped with sacrificial anodes to prevent galvanic corrosion
problems. The anodes must be monitored and replaced as necessary. For locations and
maintenance, please refer to the engine owner's manual.
Whenleavingthe boat inthewater, tilt the motorashigh as possible. This will decreasetherisk
of marine growth around the cooling inlets, propeller and exhaust ports and damage from
galvanic corrosion.
DO NOT PAINT THE OUTBOARD MOTORS WITH ANTIFOULING PAINTS DESIGNED
FOR BOAT HULLS. MANY OF THESE PAINTS CAN CAUSE SEVERE DAMAGE TO THE
ENGINES. CONTACT YOUR PURSUIT DEALER OR ENGINE MANUFACTURER FOR IN-
FORMATION ON THE PROPER PAINTING PROCEDURES.
