LAUNCHING
R e c o m m e n d a t i o n s
A lot of skill and care is required to commission your LAGOON boat.
The proper working of all your boat equipments in the future results
from the quality of the commissioning operations.
The initial launching and the first tests of the different equipments
shall be carried out by your LAGOON dealer or agent so you can
expect to enjoy the warranty in case of some equipment failure.
RECOMMENDATION
All future maintenance should be carried out with the grea-
test care by professionals.
If the LAGOON boatyard is not involved in maintenance ope-
rations, your guarantee will not cover any incidents linked to
handling errors.
