FOREWORD
Congratulations on choosing a Yamarin boat! We are delighted to welcome you as a Yamarin owner.
The intention of this manual is to help you to operate your craft safely, with maximum enjoyment
The manual contains details of the craft, the equipment supplied or fitted, its systems and informa-
tion on its operation, care and maintenance. Please read it carefully, and familiarise yourself with
the craft before using it.
Naturally, the owner’s manual is not a course on boating safety or seamanship. 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 safe-
ty, please ensure that you obtain handling and operating experience before “assuming command”
of the craft. Your dealer or national sailing association or yacht club will be pleased to advise you of
local boating schools, or competent instructors.
This owner’s manual is not a detailed maintenance or trouble shooting guide. In case of diculty
please contact the dealer. Always use qualified and competent people for the maintenance, repair
and modification of the boat. Modifications that may aect the safety characteristics of the craft
shall be assessed, executed and documented by competent people. The manufacturer is not re-
sponsible for modifications he has not approved.
Always keep your boat in a good condition and be aware that the boat requires maintenance and
servicing. Any craft – no matter how strong it may be, can be severely damaged if not used proper-
ly.
Always adjust the speed and direction of the craft to sea conditions.
All persons should wear a suitable buoyancy aid (Life jacket/Personal Flotation Device) when on
deck.
We wish you many enjoyable times on-board your Yamarin boat!

BEFORE YOU SET OFF
Familiarize yourself with this owner’s manual.
Always check at least the following items before leaving:
Weather conditions and forecast
Take the wind, waves, and visibility into account. Are the design category, size, and equipment of
your boat, as well as the skills of the skipper and crew adequate for the water area you are aiming
for? During use, hull windows and other hatches must be battened down to prevent water incursion
Loading and stability
Do not overload the craft and distribute loads appropriately. To avoid impairment of the craft’s sta-
bility, do not place heavy items high up. Please consider that the stability of the boat is reduced if
people stand up when on-board during use.
Passengers
Ensure that there is Personal Flotation Device or Lifejackets for all people on-board. Agree crew
tasks before setting o.
Fuel and fuel system
Make sure that the boat has enough fuel. Keep in mind that rough conditions at sea impact on fuel
consumption and that it can increase by more than 30% when compared to calm conditions. As
a rule of thumb, you should aim for there being at least 20% left in the tank when arriving at your
destination. Regularly check the fuel filter to ensure that there is no water in the moisture trap lo-
cated under the fuel filter itself. The fuel filter should be changed 1-2 times per year depending on
engine hours and quality of fuel.
Engine and maneuvering equipment
Check the function and condition of steering, batteries and remote control and carry out routine
checks according to the engine manual
Boat’s seaworthiness
Check the boat’s seaworthiness: no fuel or water leaks are permitted, safety equipment must be
available on-board etc. Check that there is no water in the bilge!
Fastening of equipment
Check that all equipment and heavy items are positioned so that they are held in place during
travel at sea and high winds. Please note that the seat cushions may fly overboard if they are not
fixed properly with press studs.
Nautical charts
If you are not navigating in familiar waters, ensure you have nautical charts on-board that cover a
large enough area. If your boat is equipped with a chart plotter, familiarize yourself with it before
setting o. Ensure that the plotter charts are of the latest edition
Leaving the berth
Agree with the crew who will release each mooring line, etc. Be careful not to let mooring lines or
the anchoring line to tangle in the propeller during maneuvering.
Obligatory equipment
What is considered obligatory equipment varies from country to country. Find out what is required
for your boat.
You will find additional instructions concerning the engine in a separate manual.

English
1. General
The owner’s manual will help you familiarise yourself with the properties and features of your new
boat and with its care and maintenance. Separate manuals for installed equipment are attached
and are referred to in many sections of the owner’s manual. You can supplement this user manual
by adding the manuals of devices which are installed afterwards. Space has been left for your own
notes at the end of the manual.
The user manual is not meant to be a complete service or repair manual; it simply guides the user
to use his/her boat in a proper way.
Pictures and drawings of this manual might include optional or country-specific features.
The craft has a running serial number, a CIN-code (Craft Identification Number). The CIN-code can
be found on the starboard side of the transom just below the bathing platform. We recommend
that you write down the CIN-code in the declaration of conformity on the following page. When
contacting the dealer, please provide the CIN code and the type of craft. This helps in delivering the
correct spare parts.
2. Definitions
The warnings and cautions in this manual are defined as follows:
DANGER!
Denotes an extreme intrinsic hazard that will result in a high probability of death or per-
manent injury if proper precautions are not taken.
WARNING!
Denotes a hazard which can result in injury or death if proper precautions are not taken.
NOTE!
Denotes a reminder of safe practices or directs attention to unsafe practices which could
result in personal injury or damage to the craft or components or the environment.
SI system units are used in this manual. In some cases, other units have been added in brackets. An
exception is wind speed, for which the Beaufort scale is used in the Recreational Craft Directive.
3. Warranty
The boat and its factory-installed equipment have a two-year warranty, starting on the first day of
use. Please contact your dealer regarding any potential warranty issues. Please remember to pro-
vide the CIN code. If possible, please provide a digital photograph of the subject of your claim. This
usually speeds up the claims process.
4. Before use
4.1. Registration
Registration regulations vary between dierent countries. Find out what is required in relation to
your own boat.

10
English
4.2. Insurance
Boat insurance can compensate damage occurring on water or during transport and lifting. Check
who has insurance liability each time when having the boat lifted. Insurance also has an indirect
eect on safety at sea: In the event of a serious accident or damage, you must, above all, concen-
trate on saving people. Insurance companies will be able to give more information about dierent
insurance alternatives. Check who has insurance liability each time when having the boat lifted or
transported!
4.3. Training
No one is a born sailor. There is plenty of boating literature available. Navigation courses are ar-
ranged by local yacht clubs or national boating associations where you can gain basic skills.
However, please remember that you only become confident in boat handling, navigation, docking
and anchoring after long practical experience.
5. Characteristics and use of your boat
5.1. Basic data
Recreational crafts can be constructed according to 4 categories (A, B, C and D) under the Recre-
ational Craft Directive 2013/53/EU. This boat has been constructed according to design category C.
The meanings of the various design categories are explained below.
Category A:
The boat is built for conditions where wind speed can exceed 8 Beaufort (approx. 21 m/s), and
where the significant height of the waves (please refer to note below) can exceed 4 metres. In such
circumstances the boats are largely self-sucient. Category A does not include abnormal condi-
tions such as hurricanes. Such conditions may be encountered on extended voyages, for example
when crossing oceans, or in coastal areas where there is an open expanse of sea for several hun-
dred nautical miles o the coast.
Category B:
The boat is built for conditions where wind speeds can reach a maximum of 8 Beaufort (approx. 21
m/s), and where the corresponding significant height of the waves (please refer to note below) is 4
metres at most. Such conditions may be encountered on oshore voyages of sucient length, or
on coastal waters when unsheltered from the wind and waves for several dozens of nautical miles.
These conditions may also be experienced on inland seas of sucient size for the wave height to
be generated.
Category C:
The boat is built for conditions where wind speeds can reach a maximum of 6 Beaufort (approx. 14
m/s), and where the corresponding significant height of the waves (please refer to note below) is 2
metres at most. Such conditions may be encountered on exposed inland waters, in estuaries, and in
coastal waters in moderate weather conditions.
Category D:
The boat is built for conditions where wind speeds can reach a maximum of 4 Beaufort (approx.
8 m/s), and for corresponding seas (significant wave height does not exceed 0.3 metres, and the
height of the greatest waves does not exceed 0.5 metres). Such conditions may be encountered on
protected inland waters, and in coastal areas during fine weather conditions.

11

English
Note:
Significant wave height is a term used in boat design. In practice, significant wave height
means the average height of the highest third of all wave heights measured in the waters.
If the significant wave height is 2.0 m, the mean height of all waves is roughly 1.2 m.
Maximum recommended load:
See technical specification.
Please also refer to section 5.4 “Loading”.
Main dimensions and capacities:
See technical specification. Craft length, width, draught, total weight, etc., and tank capacities are
shown in the technical specifications.
5.2. Builder’s plate
Part of the aforementioned information is given on the builder’s plate, which is axed next to the
remote control. Supplementary information is provided in the appropriate sections of this manual.

5.4. Maximum recommended number of passengers
The boat’s maximum recommended number of passengers is 8 persons.
WARNING!
Do not exceed the maximum recommended number of passengers. Regardless of the
number of passengers, the total weight of people and equipment must never exceed the
maximum recommended load (please refer to Section 5.4, “Loading”). Always remain seat-
ed on the boat. All persons on board must remain seated while the boat is moving.
Seats of Yamarin 67 DC:
5.5. Loading
The boat’s maximum permitted load is 1006 kg. This load includes the following weights:
a) The total weight of passengers 600 kg (the default weight of an adult is assumed to be 75 kg and
that of a child 37.5 kg)
b) Liquids (fresh water, fuel, etc.) in fixed tanks 215 kg
c) Personal equipment (e.g. recreational and camping equipment) 130 kg
d)the weight of supplies and other stores 18 kg
e) Liferaft 40kg
NOTE!
The maximum permitted load only includes the weights mentioned above.
WARNING!
Never exceed the maximum recommended load when loading the craft. Always load the
craft carefully and distribute loads appropriately so that the boat is on an even keel. Heavy
equipment should usually be placed in the storage compartment under the aft seat. If the
boat is carrying the maximum number of passengers, heavy items should be placed in the
bow so that the boat will not be tail-heavy. Always avoid placing heavy items high up.
5.6. Engine and propeller
The maximum recommended engine power for the boat is 250 hp (186,4 kW). Do not use the boat

13

2
34 5 67
8

English
with an engine that has an output higher than the kW limit given on the CE plate. Using a more
powerful engine than specified on the CE plate will void the boat’s warranty. Follow the dealer’s
instructions when choosing the propeller for your craft.
NOTE!
Do not turn the engine when the engine well’s hatch is resting on the hood. The warranty
does not cover damage caused by the hatch to the hood.
5.7. Prevention of water incursion and stability
5.7.1. Hull and deck through fittings and closing valves
The boat has a rainwater draining system, which means that rainwater is drained from the un-
decked part of the boat when the boat is on the water. The system also functions when the boat is
out of water, provided that the bow is higher than the stern and closing valve is open. The rainwater
drainage closing valve is located under the middle hatch of the aft seat. This drain valve is meant to
be shut only when at maximum load to prevent potential water incursion. In other loading condi-
tions the drain valve should remain open to let rainwater drain from the boat.
The boat is equipped with two bilge pumps, at the locations indicated in the figure below. The elec-
tric bilge pump has a capacity of c. 65 l/min and the manual pump’s capacity is c. 0.5 l/pull.
The boat is equipped with high bilge water warning system. Warning system includes a float switch
located in the bilge and a warning light located on the dashboard.

14
English
The owner of the boat is responsible for ensuring that there is at least one baler or bucket on the
boat and that it has been secured.
WARNING!
The bilge pump system is not intended to cope with a leak caused by running aground or
other equivalent damage (hull damage).
WARNING!
Always keep the drainpipe shut when its inboard end is constantly below the waterline
due to loading. The shut-o flap on the transom only prevents water from entering the
boat when reversing!
NOTE!
Make sure that water can flow unobstructed through the drainpipe. Debris such as autumn
leaves may obstruct the water flow, which can cause the boat to fill with water and sink.
The bilge pump system does not work in conditions below 0°C.
PRECAUTION!
Refer to the image above to locate the pumps. Regularly check to ensure that there is no
debris at the end of the suction hoses for each of the pumps. You can access the electri-
cal pump by doing the following: Screw o the bottom plate (plywood plate) under the aft
seat. The bilge pump is located in a case and you can just lift it up as it is not fitted with
screws. Clean out the bottom layer in the bilge pump by letting it down into its case. The
end of the hand pump’s suction hose is situated between the fuel tank and the transom,
and can be reached by screwing o the bottom plate under the aft seat.
NOTE!
There is always some condensed water in the bilge. A small amount of water may also
come through the hull through fittings, especially as the boat ages. Always remember to
check the bilge before you leave the boat at quay or buoy, and always before setting o.
Have any leaks repaired at an authorised repair shop.
WARNING!
The boat’s handling properties may become extremely dangerous if there is water in the
bilge.
WARNING!
The boat’s hull windows must be kept closed when the boat is moving. Also close the
windows when you leave the boat at pier or buoy. In rough weather, hatches, drawers and
doors should be kept shut to minimise the risk of them filling with water.
5.7.2.Stability and buoyancy
Please note that stability will be reduced by any weight added high up on the boat. Any change in
the distribution of weight on board may significantly aect the stability, trim and performance of
your craft. Please remember that large breaking waves always present a serious danger to stability.
5.8. Avoiding the risk of fire or danger of explosion
5.8.1.Fire protection
The boat is equipped with a portable 2 kg fire extinguisher class 8A 68 B, which is the minimum
power requirement for extinguishers. For the extinguisher to remain reliable, it should be inspected

15
1
English
annually by an authorised inspector. In the event that the fire extinguisher is replaced, the capacity
of the new one must be at least equivalent to the old.
Image: Location of the fire extinguisher
1. Portable extinguisher
Ensure that fire-fighting equipment is readily accessible even when the boat is loaded. Inform
members of the crew about the location and operation of fire-fighting equipment.
Remember:
- Never block passages to exits and hatches.
- Never hinder access to safety equipment, for instance the switches to the electric system.
- Never hinder access to fire extinguishers located in a box.
- Never leave the boat unsupervised while the cooker or heater is on.
- Never make alterations to any of the boat’s systems (especially the electricity or the fuel
systems) or allow an unqualified person to make alterations to any of the boat’s systems.
- Never refill a fuel tank when the boat’s engine is running or the cooker or heater is on.
- Never smoke while handling petrol or gas.
NOTE !
In a new boat the fire extinguisher might go out of date in a short period of time.
5.8.2. Refuelling
Shut o the engine and extinguish any cigarettes before starting to refuel. During refuelling, do not
use switches or appliances that can cause a spark.
If the nozzle shuts o in the middle of refuelling, turn it roughly 90 degrees to prevent the fuel jet
from hitting the chain’s mounting screw.
When refuelling at a service station, do not use a plastic funnel, since it will prevent the tension
between the refuelling nozzle and filling vent from being discharged.
Hint: If you are afraid of getting fuel on the teak deck during refuelling, wet the deck with water.
You can also hold a rag in front of the fuel filler to prevent fuel from splashing on the deck.
Always keep a spare can of fuel on board. The anchor boxes at the stern are especially suitable for
storing the spare canister. There is no risk of vaporised fuel coming into contact with battery com-
partments or the electrical system from either of these boxes.

Do not stow any loose items under the aft seat that could prevent fuel flow to the engine if they
shift. This is particularly important for items that may press against hoses or the fuel filter. Check
the fuel hoses annually for wear, especially at through fittings.
Please note that, depending on the trim of the boat or the boat’s heeling angle, it might not be pos-
sible to use the full capacity of the tanks.
WARNING!
Vaporised fuel is highly explosive. Observe these instructions and the utmost caution
during refuelling. The smell of fuel always means that there is vaporised fuel on your boat.
5.9. Fuel operated systems
1. Diesel heater
2. stove
3. Heater switch
4. Diesel tank
5.9.1. Heater
The diesel heater (optional accessory) has own user manuals and operation is not described in de-
tail in this manual. The fuel tanks for the stove and heater are located under the aft bench. Turn o
the stove and heater when refuelling. Always clean any spilled fuel immediately.
NOTE!
If the boat is equipped with a heater (optional accessory), do not close the exhaust grates
when the heater is switched on. This will cause the heater to overheat and engage the
overheat protector.
5.9.2. Stove
The stove (optional accessory) utilizes the same diesel tank as the heater. The stoves’s own manu-
al is provided with the boat. Operation is not described in detail in this manual.

5.10. Main power switches and circuit breakers
Operation of the main power switches:
- clockwise position -> circuit switched on
- counter-clockwise position -> battery disconnected
Switch the power o from both main switches when leaving the boat, and always switch both
switches on when using it.
Image: Main power switch and fuses
Electric circuit fuses are located next to the main power switch. Fuse sizes are also presented in the
electrical diagram. Do not change the circuit breaker amperages or install any components that
exceed the nominal amperage of the circuit in the electric system.
NOTE!
Remember also to switch o the main power switch before making any electrical installa-
tions.
NOTE!
Never switch o the main switch while the engine is running! It can cause serious damage
to the engine’s electric system.
NOTE!
Do not perform electric installations (such as changing lamps) when the power is on.
Leave any larger installations to professionals.
6. Proper use – other recommendations and guidelines
If this is your first boat or a boat type new to you, take someone with experience of a similar boat
with you the first few times you operate it.

English
6.1. Controls
You will quickly learn how to control your boat, but changing weather conditions, such as wind and
waves, will always present new challenges for the driver. The remote control combines the func-
tions of throttle, forward and reverse gears, and the adjusting of the engine trim angle. The boat is
equipped with hydraulic steering.
6.2. Emergency switch
The emergency switch is a device with one end attached to the switch under the remote control
and the other end for instance to your lifejacket. The emergency switch automatically switches o
the engine when detached from the remote control. It is very important that the boat will come to
a halt in the event that the driver, for whatever reason, loses his/her balance and is flung from the
helm.
NOTE!
Never take control of the boat without having attached the emergency switch to yourself.
If you attach the emergency switch to your arm, do not steer the boat with that arm, be-
cause the chain may be tangled in the steering wheel during tight turns.
NOTE!
The engine will not start if the emergency switch is not attached to the switch on the re-
mote control.
DANGER!
A rotating propeller presents a life-threatening danger to a swimmer or a person who has
fallen overboard. Always use the emergency switch to turn o the engine when a swim-
mer or water skier is about to re-enter the boat from the water.
6.3. Gearshift and throttle
The engine is put into gear by pushing the button on the gear/throttle handle upwards with your
fingers and by pushing or pulling the gear/throttle lever forward or backward, depending on the di-
rection in which you are planning to go. When the engine is in gear, you can adjust the boat’s speed
using the same gear/throttle lever.
When the boat is travelling forward slowly, you can use the reverse gear for braking when ap-
proaching the dock, for instance. Shifting into reverse must not be done if the boat is travelling at
higher speeds, because it will damage the engine.
6.4. Adjusting of trim angle
These are the main rules when adjusting the trim angle:
- When bringing the boat to plane, keep the ‘bow down’ position
- When the boat is planing and seas are calm, keep lifting the bow until you can feel that both the
engine and the boat move very easily. In calm waters, the engine should normally be trimmed up
at least 3 scale marks on the trim indicator on the revolution counter. If the engine is trimmed up
too much, the speed of the boat will be reduced. If the boat is trimmed too low, the boat will run
slowly and the engine will run heavily. To achieve good fuel economy, it is important to drive the
boat with the right engine trim angle.
- In heavy head seas, lower the bow to allow it to slice through the waves better, thus providing a
smoother ride.

- In following seas, raise the bow to avoid ‘diving’ into the waves.
WARNING!
Do not drive the boat at high speeds with the engine trimmed up (bow up), as there is
a risk of sudden heeling when the propeller hits the water again after a flight in heavy
waves. Likewise, do not drive at high speed with the engine completely trimmed down
(bow down) since this can cause the boat to pitch unexpectedly when the bow hits the
water. The boat may become unstable when turning if the bow is too low.
The trim tabs can be used to adjust the boat’s heel to make the boat run in an upright position in
crosswinds or with an unbalanced load.
All planing boats lean into the wind, but the heel can be adjusted by lowering the windward trim
tab. This makes the boat’s sharp bow cut the waves, resulting in a much smoother ride. If you want
to further reduce the waves’ eect on the boat, you should trim the windward side up to lift it above
the waves to an extent.

WARNING!
Adjust the trim tabs carefully at high speeds – adjusting them radically changes the way
the boat handles. Do not drive with the bow too low, since the boat may turn unexpected-
ly.
WARNING!
Waves reduce manoeuvrability and make the boat heel. Accordingly, reduce speed when
encountering heavier seas.

6.5. Starting the engine
1. Switch the power on using the main power switch.
2. Lower the engine to the driving position by pressing the Power Trim button on the gear/ throttle
handle.
3. Check that the gear/throttle handle is in the neutral position and that the emergency switch is
attached to the bottom of the remote control.
4. Switch on the current, using the start key, without starting the engine and wait a few seconds for
the warning lights to light up.
5. Start the engine by turning the ignition key clockwise until the engine starts. If everything is in
order, the engine should start within 1-2 seconds. If the engine does not start, you should not try
to start it for more than 10 seconds at a time.
6. After the engine has started, let it idle for a few minutes before setting o. (Please refer to the
engine manual!)
For more detailed information, please refer to the engine manual.
6.6. Driving
It is easy to drive when the weather is fine and the sea is calm. However, always remember to keep
an adequate lookout. In order to maintain the best possible visibility from the driver’s position, you
should do this:
- Ensure that passengers do not restrict your visibility.
- Do not drive near planing speed for long periods, as the bow up comes up and reduces visibility.
- When visibility is poor, look over the windshield.
- remember to also keep a lookout behind you, particularly on shipping lanes Use navigation lights
in darkness.
Always adjust your speed to prevailing conditions and the environment. Take into account the fol-
lowing:
- waves (also consult the passengers on what is a comfortable speed);
- your own bow wake (greatest at planing speed, smallest at speeds under 5 knots);
- visibility (islands, fog, rain, driving against the sun);
- familiarity with the route (time required for navigation);
- width of the route (other trac, noise and bow wake near shore).
- Make sure to always maintain a sucient distance to avoid collision. The distance must be
sucient to stop the boat or to take evasive action.
When running at low speed, a planing boat’s directional stability is poorer than at higher speeds. So
be careful in narrow passages and, particularly, when meeting other boats.
You must learn the rules of trac on sea lanes and follow the international regulations on how to
avoid collisions at sea, COLREG. Navigate with care and use new or updated nautical charts.
The running position of the boat greatly aects its handling characteristics and
fuel consumption and visibility from the driver’s position. You can aect the running position by:
- placing the load properly – the general rule being that you should place as little weight in the
bow as possible; and
- adjusting the trim angle.
