BOATING WITH PASSENGERS
When passengers are on board,
make sure they are seated and hold-
ing on before you start to acceler-
ate. An unprepared passenger could
lose balance and fall.
Your boat is designed for one operator
and up to eight passengers only. Never
have more than nine people in the boat.
Passengers must sit in one of the seats
and hold onto the grips. Passengers
should sit so the weight in the boat is
balanced from side-to-side and bow-to-
stern as much as possible. If the pas-
senger seat in front of the helm is used,
be sure the operator’s view ahead is
not obstructed.
BOARDING FROM THE WATER
Severe internal injuries can occur if
water is forced into body cavities as
a result of being near the jet thrust
nozzles.
Do not board from the rear, use
swim platform, or swim behind
boat if engines are running.
Stay away from the back of the
boat when engines are running.
Stay away from the swim step while the
engines are running. Exhaust gases
coming from underneath it contain
carbon monoxide, a colorless, odor-
less gas which may cause brain dam-
age or death when inhaled. Symptoms
include nausea, dizziness, and drowsi-
ness.
