Below is a list of systems with an associated descriptions and directions on basic operation
of the vessel. Most of the vessels systems have a complete manufacturer's operating
manual on board. If the below system summary and the manufactures manuals do not
clarify or resolve a question or issue, please contact AYC for assistants. The white softback

General Notes and Owner's Request:
This vessel is tall and hence is difficult to manage in winds above 10 to 15 knots while
docking. If the conditions are windy (above 20 knots of wind), foggy and at night, just stay
safe where every you are. The vessel does not manage heavy waves that also due to the
size and weight. Better cruising conditions are just a few hours or a day away. Please do
not travel with wind waves larger than 4 feet. Cruising in the Puget Sound is magical, but
floating debris is very common and you must keep scanning the water in your path. Logs
and fishing buoys are common obstacles to avoid. The vessel travels at a few rpm levels
nicely. A slow cruise is traveling at 1200 rpm's to 1600 rpm's. A medium cruise is from
1700 to 2200 rpm's – not in a plane. If you need to get going – 2300 rpm's to 2500 rpm's –
maximum rpm's. Use the trim tabs and level out to a 5% degree cruising level. Please do
not max out the engines and even out the rpm's of the two engines for a smooth ride.
Thought out the week, please wash the exterior of the vessel to ensure the salt and diesel
from the fiberglass topcoat. No pets or smoking is allowed on the vessel at anytime. Enjoy
your time on Fourplay.
