The material within this manual and your Owner’s 
Manual Packet:
•  gives you basic safety information
•  Describes the features of your boat
•  Describes the equipment on your boat
•  Describes the fundamentals of boat use
•  Contains service and maintenance information
You must learn to operate this boat as well as 
read, understand and use this manual.
What this manual does not give you is a course in 
boating safety, or how to navigate, anchor, or dock 
your boat. Operating a power boat safely requires 
more  skills,  knowledge,  and  awareness  than  is 
necessary for a car or truck.

for your safety, the safety of your passengers, other 
boaters, and people in the water, you must:
•  Take a boating safety course
•  get instruction in the safe and proper handling of 
your boat
•  Understand and follow the “Rules of the Road”
•  learn how to navigate
•  Register your boat:  In addition to the registration 
requirements for your boat in the state where it is 
used most frequently, many states require additional 
registration when an out-of-state boat is used within 
their boundaries.  Contact state boating authorities 
or any marine dealer for registration requirements.
