Carbon monoxide is a colorless, tasteless, odorless and poison-
ous gas that accumulates rapidly and can cause serious injury
or death. Exposure to carbon monoxide can be fatal in a matter
of minutes. Exposure to even low concentrations of carbon
monoxide must not be ignored because the eects of exposure to
carbon monoxide can build up and be just as lethal as high con-
centrations. Carbon monoxide from exhaust pipes of inboard or
outboard engines may build up inside and outside the boat in
areas near exhaust vents, particularly during slow-speed opera-
tions. STAY AWAY from these exhaust vent areas, which are
located at the stern of the boat, and DO NOT swim or engage
in any watersports or other activities in or near the stern area of
the boat, including, without limitation, the swim platform and
the rear sun deck, when the engine is in operation. Under no
circumstances should the owner and/or operator allow persons
to hold onto the swim platform while the engine is operating
and the boat is in motion. ese activities (sometimes known
as “teak surng” or “platform dragging,” where the participant
holds onto the swim platform and is pulled through the water,
and/or “body surfs” immediately behind the boat) are extremely
dangerous, highly likely to result in death or serious bodily
injury, and are a misuse of this product.

e safety switch lanyard must be attached to the operator
whenever the engine is running. Failure to do so may result in
death or serious injury! (Page 5-5)
Never override or modify the engine emergency safety shut-o
switch in any way. (Page 1-2)
Before starting the engine, open the engine compartment and
check for gasoline fumes, fuel and oil leaks or the presence of

Do not tow more than two (2) persons at one time on a tow tow-
er. e tow tower approved for use on your boat should be used
only for water skis, wakeboards or recreational towables, and
not for parasailing, kite ying or towing other boats. Do not add
any attachments that are not approved for use on your Master-
Cra boat. Do not climb on, sit on, stand on, jump o of or dive
o of the tower. Never allow passengers
to sit behind the tow rope attachment
point. Never allow loose tow rope ends
to dangle. Always be certain that all bolts
are in place and tight before and during
use. When the tower is up, watch for low
obstacles such as tree limbs, bridges or
power lines. (Page 1-4)
Information regarding the maximum
number of people and/or additional
weight to the boat is included in the
Guide to Individual Models section of
this Manual. It is the boat operator’s
responsibility to ensure that the boat is
never overloaded. Too much additional
weight may cause the boat to overturn or
sink, which can result in serious bodily
injury or death. (Page 10-1)
Boat operators should never attempt to duplicate operational
skills of professional drivers. When such maneuvers fail, it can
result in serious injury or death. (Page 10-1)
Failure to comply with the requirement of operating the blower
for at least four (4) minutes before starting the engine may result
in serious injury or death to you and/or others. (Page 1-3)

Never run the engine without proper ventilation. Do not run
the engine in a conned space or where fumes may be trapped.
Do not run the engine when the boat is stationary in calm wind
conditions. (Page 5-6)

DO NOT launch or operate the boat if any problem is found
during the Safety Check. A problem could lead to an accident
