SeCtiOn 1 • SaFety
SAFE boating means:
• Knowing the limitations of your boat
• Following the "Rules of the Road"
• Keeping a sharp lookout for people and objects
in the water
• Not boating in water or weather conditions
that are beyond the boat's and the operator's
capability
• Never boating when the operator is under the
inuence of drugs or alcohol
• Being aware of your passenger's safety at all
times
• Reducing speed when there is limited visibility,
rough water, and nearby people in the water,
boats, or structures
Boating in beautiful weather and calm water
conditions can be a wonderful experience.
Pleasurable boating, however, requires considerably
greater skills than operating a land vehicle. To
obtain these skills, you must:
• Take a Coast Guard, U.S. Power Squadron,
or equivalent boating safety course. Call the
Boat/U.S. Foundation at 1-800-336-2628 for
information on available courses.
• Get hands-on training on how to operate your
boat properly.
In addition:
• Maintain your boat and its safety and other
systems as recommended in this manual.
• Have the boat inspected by a qualied mechanic
or dealer at least annually.
• Ensure that the Coast Guard required safety
equipment is on board and functions properly.
(See page 1.2)
• Operating a high performance boat such as
a Baja requires different skills than operating
other boats. Make sure you have the necessary
skills, and if you are unsure ask your dealer for
a demonstration.
