Wave And Wake Jumping - Mercury 200 Verado Manual

GENERAL INFORMATION
Avoid serious injury or death from falling over the front end of a
pontoon or deck boat and being run over. Stay back from the
front end of the deck and remain seated while the boat is in
motion.
BOATS WITH FRONT MOUNTED, RAISED PEDESTAL
FISHING SEATS
Elevated fishing seats are not intended for use when the boat is
traveling faster than idle or trolling speed. Sit only in seats
designated for traveling at faster speeds.
Any unexpected, sudden reduction in boat speed could result in
the elevated passenger falling over the front of the boat.

Wave And Wake Jumping

Operating recreational boats over waves and wake is a natural part
of boating. However, when this activity is done with sufficient speed
to force the boat hull partially or completely out of the water, certain
hazards arise, particularly when the boat re-enters the water.
