    Carbon Monoxide (CO) is a colorless and odorless gas produced by all engines and fuel burning appliances. Even with the best boat design and construction, plus the utmost care in inspection, operation and maintenance, hazardous levels of CO may still be present in occupied spaces under certain conditions.

  • Page 38: Our Environment

    Foreign Species If you trailer your boat from lake to lake, you may unknowingly introduce a foreign aquatic species from one lake to the next. Thoroughly clean the boat and trailer below the water line, remove all weeds and algae, and drain the bilge and ballast tanks before launching the boat in a new body of water.

  • Page 39: Discharge/Disposal Of Waste

  • Page 178: 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 179: 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 180: 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 181: 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 182: Performance Boating

  • Page 183: Care And Maintenance

    General Maintenance 1. Read engine operator and maintenance manual very carefully. 2. Check for fuel line leaks every time you use the boat. 3. DO NOT start your engine if gasoline odor is present. Gasoline fumes are highly explosive. Before starting your engine, open the engine cover, inspect the engine compartment for gasoline fumes and operate the blower for at least four minutes.

  • Page 184: Engine Intake Raw Water Strainer

    Section 8 4. When servicing the ignition switch or any wiring, always disconnect the battery cables from the battery. 5. Check for water circulation when the engine is running.

    Bilge Pumps Check your bilge pumps often to make sure they are operating efficiently. There are two bilge pumps: one is at the rear of the boat near the rudder and under the floor by the forward bulkhead located next to the fuel tank. To keep the pumps from getting clogged, remove any debris you find in the bilge.

    Section 8 5. Close the ball valve of step 2 unless the boat is on a trailer or lifted up in the air, in which case it should be left open. 6. Run the engine for several minutes after it has reached the normal operating temperature to ensure proper flushing.

  • Page 193: Battery Maintenance

    7. Wax the hull at least once a year with a UV wax. Rotate the boat during outside storage every 6 months for even color blending.
  • Page 194 The battery cables should be removed from the battery when the boat is placed in storage, on display or in transit. This will eliminate the possibility of the engine accidentally starting without a supply of cooling water and may damage the engine.

  • Page 195: Gelcoat Maintenance

    Sun exposure, residue from trees and minerals in the water affect your boat’s finish. To help maintain the shine of your boat, wash the hull with a mild bio-degradable detergent after each use. This will help to remove any debris and waterborne materials that are on the hull.

  • Page 196: Teak Care

    DO NOT use common household scouring pads or powders. If you will be keeping your boat in the water for ANY period of time, we suggest that the wetted surface of the hull be painted with an epoxy paint formulated for blister protection.

    When storing your boat up on a rack system, it is important the racks adequately support the hull bottom. If you do not have a trailer, support the boat like a Nautique dealer recommended trailer. It is important to have an even weight distribution.
  • Page 208 The raw water strainer bowl (A) remains full of water even after the rest of the engine cooling water system is drained. To properly winterize your boat, the strainer must be removed and emptied. DO NOT lose the rubber O-ring (B) that seals the bowl to the cap.

  • Page 209: Check For Water In Your Fuel System

    A small amount of water left in the fuel system for several months can result in damage to the fuel system and engine. If you are storing your boat for the winter, it is a good practice to remove any water in the fuel system.
