Section 1
Some required safety equipment, such as life jackets (PFDs), are
not included with your boat. Your dealer can help you choose the
appropriate equipment.
Many states' equipment requirements go beyond USCG
requirements. Contact your state boating office for further
information.

Navigation Lights

Your boat is equipped with navigational lights. Recreational boats
are required to display navigational lights between sunset and
sunrise and other periods of reduced visibility (fog, rain, haze, etc.).
Navigation lights are provided to keep other boats informed of your
presence and course. It is up to you to make sure they are
operational, displayed correctly, and turned on when required.

Emergency Safety Lanyard

Your boat is equipped with an Emergency Safety Lanyard (cutoff
switch). We recommend that the lanyard be secured to the operator
and the lock plate attached to the emergency cutoff switch prior to
starting the engine and anytime the engine is operating. The
Emergency Safety Lanyard is designed to turn off the engine
whenever the operator moves far enough away from the helm to
activate the switch. The purpose is to stop the engine, propeller, and
boat in the event the operator leaves the helm location, falls
overboard, or is ejected from the boat. If the engine is stopped it will
prevent the boat from becoming a run-away, unmanned boat, which
may cause injury or death to boat occupants who have fallen
overboard or been ejected, or to other nearby people. If the engine
stops it will minimize the subsequent opportunity for propeller
contact with the operator or other persons in the water. If the
engine and boat stop it will afford opportunity for the operator or
other persons who have fallen overboard to safely re-board the boat.
