WARNING
!
Accidental activation of the Emergency
Stop Switch (such as the tether being
pulled out in heavy seas) could cause
passengers to lose their balance and
even fall overboard, or it could result
in loss of power in heavy seas, strong
currents, or high winds. Loss of control
while mooring is another potential
hazard.
To minimize accidental activation of the
Emergency Stop Switch, the 500 mm
(20 inch.) stop switch tether is coiled
and can extended to a full 1,300 mm (51
inch.).
