  • Page 148: Maneuvering Techniques

    When making tight maneuvers, it is important to understand the effects of turning. Since both thrust and steering are at the stern of the boat, the stern will push away from the direction of the turn. The bow follows a smaller turning circle than the stern.

  • Page 149: Tow Pattern

    Stopping (checking headway) is a technique that must be developed. Reverse thrust is used to slow and stop the boat. The momentum of the boat will vary according to the load as well as the speed. Make it a practice to slow to idle (no-wake) speed before shifting into reverse.

  • Page 150: Freezing Temperatures

    Section 7 Freezing Temperatures When the boat is removed from the water, drain the cooling and heater system (as equipped) completely. Anchoring There are many types of anchors available on the market. The choice of one anchor over another depends on many factors. An anchor will usually hold best in a mixture of mud and clay or in hard sand.

  • Page 151: Dropping Anchor

    • Make sure the line is tied to the anchor and tie the other end to the forward cleat or bow eye. • Head the boat into the wind or current over the spot where you want to lower the anchor. Spot the boat before lowering the anchor.

  • Page 152: Weighing (Pulling In) Anchor

    If the anchor remains caught, let out a few more feet of line and attach it to the bow cleat. Slowly maneuver the boat around the anchor until the anchor pulls loose. Be sure to keep the line tight during this procedure.
