Boating Safety - Supra Sunsport 22V Owner's Manual

Important Safety Information!
Your safety, as well as the safety of others with and around
you, is a direct result of how you operate and maintain your
boat. Read and comprehend this manual. Make sure that
you understand all the controls and operating instructions
before attempting to operate the boat. Improper operation is
extremely dangerous.
The basic safety rules are outlined in this section of the manual.
Additional precautions throughout the manual are noted by
the following symbols:
This symbol indicates a potentially hazardous circumstance,
which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury. It
may also be used to alert against unsafe practices.
This symbol indicates a potentially hazardous situation, which,
if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
This symbol indicates an imminently hazardous situation, which,
if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury. This is limited
to the most extreme situations.
The precautions listed in this manual and on the boat are
not exhaustive. If a procedure, method, tool or part is not
specifically recommended by Skier's Choice, you must satisfy
yourself that it is safe for you and others, and that the boat will
not be damaged or made unsafe as a result of your decision.
REMEMBER: ALWAYS USE COMMON SENSE WHEN OPERATING,
SERVICING OR REPAIRING THE BOAT!
In addition to everyday safety, failure to observe safety
recommendations may result in severe personal injury or death
to you or to others. Use caution and common sense when
operating your boat. Don't take unnecessary chances!
Be certain that all boat passengers are aware of this information
and conform to boat safety principles.

Safe Boating
Safe boating practices may seem obvious, but people have
thought up risky and dangerous activities in boats, with boats,
and behind boats. Just because you or your passengers have
seen a boating maneuver performed or have seen a particular
activity promoted, do not assume there is no risk of injury or
death. Before you or your passengers go out in the boat and
engage in any water sport activity, give careful consideration to
the risks. Plan ahead. Think twice before you try something new
behind your boat or with your boat. Know the limits of you, your
passengers and your equipment and do not exceed them.
In addition to careful review of this manual, you should be aware
as well that there are many sources of information available.
Skier's Choice urges you to pursue additional training, such as
safety and seamanship courses offered by the U.S. Coast Guard
Auxiliary and the U.S. Power Squadron.
Safe boating and safe actions may seem obvious, yet every
year US Coast Guard statistics give evidence that many people
disregard safe boating practices. Do not take safety for granted.
Think twice. We want all our boat owners and their passengers,
friends, and families to have a safe and enjoyable experience
on the water.
