2 FEATURES & FUNCTIONS
This boat is equipped with “start-in-
gear” protection. The engines will not
start unless the levers are in the Neutral
position.
The shift lever controls the direction of
travel.
The drive line on the boat is direct
drive, so jet thrust is always being pro-
duced while the engines are running.
The direction of the boat is controlled
by jet pump gates which direct the flow
of the jet thrust as follows:
Forward
The jet pump gates are lifted all the way
up. All jet thrust is to the rear, which
moves the boat forward.
Neutral
The jet pump gates are dropped down
part way over the jet nozzles. Some
jet thrust is to the rear and some jet
thrust is redirected forward. This bal-
ance of thrust acts like “neutral” to
keep the boat from moving. WARNING!
Leave the throttles in the idle posi-
tion when Neutral is selected. The
boat will start moving as if it was in
Forward or Reverse if engine speed
is increased above idle in Neutral.
Reverse
The jet pump gates are dropped all the
way down over the jet nozzles. Jet thrust
is redirected toward the bow of the boat,
which moves the boat backward.
Free Accelerator
This control is equipped with a “Free
Accelerator” button which will allow
engines to be accelerated with the
jet pump gates in the Neutral posi-
tion. WARNING! The boat will start
moving as if it were in Forward or
Reverse if engine speed is increased
above idle in Neutral. Use the Free
Accelerator only if necessary and be
prepared for the possibility of boat
movement.
