Shut engine off if an object is struck or if you run
aground.
Check for hull leaks and propulsion system damage,
before restarting engine.
Use hand pump if bilge pumps don't remove water.
Boat very slowly, if you must proceed with a damaged
propulsion system.
! WARNING
Your boat's propeller can kill or injure persons in
the water.
Always stay away from areas designated for
swimming or diving. Unless you are towing a skier,
stay away from water ski areas. Recognize markers
used for such areas.
When engine is running, close and lock transom
door and do not permit anyone to use boarding
ladder and swim platform.
DANGER
!
Skiers must wear an approved PFD.
! WARNING
If the skier suddenly releases the tow rope, it can
backlash into the cockpit. Spotters who are watching
the skier must be made aware of this fact and be
prepared to deect the rope by hand to avoid injury.
! WARNING
Hitting an object in or under the water or boating in
dangerous currents can cause serious injury or death
to boat occupants.
You must know where the hazards are and avoid
them.
In uncharted waters, boat very slowly and post a
lookout.
