NMMA Certified
Sportsman Boats are certified by the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA). NMMA certification
not only meets the standards of the United States Coast Guard (USCG), but goes further and meets the standards
set by the ABYC (American Boat and Yacht Counsel). All Sportsman models have been designed, constructed and
thoroughly tested to meet or exceed these standards. For more information on the 2014 model year standards,
you may visit http://www.nmma.org/certification/programs/boats/ for more details.
Hull Number / Registration
Sportsman has a permanent record of your boat, which was
documented during the manufacturing process. It is identified by
its “Hull Identification Number” (HIN). The HIN is located on the
starboard side of the transom, just under the Rub Rail. When
contacting your dealer concerning maintenance or warranties,
please have your HIN and model number available. This
information can be found on your copy of the warranty card.
Federal and State laws require a power boat to be registered in
the state where it is primarily used. Registration numbers and
validation stickers must be displayed according to regulations. The
registration certificate must be on board when boating. The boat
serial number, or Hull Identification Number (HIN), is required on
the registration form. The HIN should be included on all
documents or any correspondence.

BOATING SAFETY
REQUIRED SAFETY EQUIPMENT
The US Coast Guard (USCG) requires that every boat have specific equipment on board.
Check with local regulations on mandatory equipment apart from the list of Coast Guard requirements.
FIRE EXTINGUISHER
At least one Type-1 hand held portable fire extinguisher must be carried on board. For boats over
20’ two are required. Check extinguisher regularly for charge status.
PERSONAL FLOTATION DEVICE (PFD)
You must have a USCG approved personal flotation device of Type I, II, or III aboard for each passenger, in
addition to one Type IV throwable PFD. Always wear a PFD when boating. In some states, children are
required to wear a PFD at all times. Check your local regulations.
SOUND SIGNALING DEVICES
Your Sportsman boat is equipped with an electric horn which meets the USCG requirements for
a sound signal device.
VISUAL DISTRESS SIGNALS
USCG approved visual distress signals are required for day and night use when operating on US waters.
Approved signals include flares, orange smoke, an orange distress flag, or an electric distress light.
LIGHTING
Your Sportsman boat is equipped with navigation lights which comply with both Inland and
International rules.

Being on the water is a great experience, but it can become a bad experience very
quickly if safety and maintaining your boat are not followed. Therefore, your
Sportsman manual has been written to include a number of safety instructions and
notices in order to help you operate your boat safely and maintain it. These instructions
are in the form of WARNING, and DANGER statements. They are defined as follows:
Please become familiar with the location and content of the
Caution, Warning and Danger Labels found on your boat.

Your Owner’s Manual was written to include safety
instructions to ensure safe operations. Safety alerts symbols
are used to show potential personal injury hazards.
Your boat produces carbon monoxide and uses
flammable fuel. Carbon monoxide can cause brain damage
or death. Carbon monoxide is colorless, odorless and
extremely dangerous.
Every precaution has been taken to reduce the risks
associated with death, possible injury, damage from fire
and explosion. Your own precaution and good maintenance
procedures are necessary in order to enjoy safe operation
of your boat.

Master 214 has a 7 Person Capacities, below
shows the standing and seated position

Your electrical system:

Bilge Pump
Located on the hull bottom at the stern of your boat. Water is pumped out at a
through hull fitting located at the starboard aft of the hull. Pump may be accessed by
lifting the total access hatch. You may turn your bilge pump on manually with your
bilge switch located on the switch panel at the helm of your boat. Once water in the
bilge area reaches a certain level the float is engaged and the bilge pump is activated
automatically.
Bilge pumps are designed to remove excess water only. They are not intended to
prevent rapid accumulation of on-board water due to rough weather, hull damage, or
other unsafe navigational conditions.

All-round/Anchor light: Is a white light placed over the highest unobstructed point of the vessel,
showing an unbroken light over an arc of the horizon of 225 degrees and fixed to show from anywhere
ahead, to just behind the beams of the vessel.
Sidelights: Your Masters 214 has rub rail navigational lights installed in the bow gunnel. A green light
on the starboard (right) side, and a red light on the port (left) side of a vessel. Each shows an unbroken
light over an arc of the horizon of 112.5 degrees and is fixed to show from ahead to just behind the
beams of the vessel on its respective side.
Recreational boats are required to display navigation lights between sunset and sunrise and other
periods of reduced visibility (fog, rain, haze, etc.) Navigation lights are intended to keep other vessels
informed of your presence and course. Your boat is equipped with the navigation lights required by the
U.S. Coast Guard at the time of manufacture. It is up to you to make sure they are visible, operational
and turned on.
The Nav/Anc switch is a 3 position switch that
controls the running lights.
*NAV position will turn on the red and green
navigation lights and the white all-round light
for night driving.
*ANC turns on the all-round light only for night
anchoring, do not operate the boat in the
anchor position
*Off is in the center position

Your 214 comes with (2 ) 20 gallon
aft livewells and a 10 gallon console
livewell. The pumps are located next to
the bilge in the hull of your boat. Open
the total access hatch for easy access.
You may operate your livewells by
opening the high speed pickup valve in
the bilge area of your boat. Then turn
on your switch labeled livewell 1 on
your helm switch panel to operate the
starboard aft and the livewell under
the Front Seat of Console . Then turn
on your switch labeled livewell 2 on
your helm switch panel to operate the
Port aft livewell. With the stand pipe
installed in your livewell. Water will
not exceed a full level. Also, lights are
installed in each livewell for
Illumination by turning on the switch
at the dash.

The 214 comes with a
64 gallon fuel tank. The
gasoline fuel system
consists of a fuel tank,
fuel tank vent, anti-
siphon valve, engine
fuel supply line, fuel fill,
and a carbon canister.
Your boat contains a
new EPA certified fuel
system. The system
prevents spit back
when filling the tanks
and lowers the out
gassing emissions
through the tank and
vent

Working together, the NMMA and the ABYC have
proposed an industry specification for installing carbon
canisters and pressure relief systems, which the EPA and
CARB have accepted. The actual detailed ABYC
specification is in development. Builders will be asked to
demonstrate that their products are built in accordance
with these specifications in order to obtain NMMA
certification. This will demonstrate to the EPA & CARB
that a boat is in compliance. Representatives from boat
& engine builders, tank, fill, valve and canister
manufacturers, test labs and the U.S. Coast Guard are
among the authors of the new specifications.
Refueling vapors bypass canister and vent through a vented
fill to the fuel pump. This line is then closed with a sealed cap
after refueling and diurnal vapors are forced through the
canister. This approach provides the least restriction during
refueling.
