Boater's Responsibilities

The operator (driver) is responsible for the correct and safe operation of the
boat and the safety of its occupants and general public. It is strongly
recommended that each operator read and understand this entire manual
before operating the outboard.
Be sure that at least one additional person onboard is instructed in the basics
of starting and operating the outboard and boat handling in case the driver is
unable to operate the boat.

Boat Horsepower Capacity

Exceeding the boat's maximum horsepower rating can cause serious injury
or death. Overpowering the boat can affect boat control and flotation
characteristics or break the transom. Do not install an engine that exceeds
the boat's maximum power rating.
Do not overpower or overload your boat. Most boats will carry a required
capacity plate indicating the maximum acceptable power and load as
determined by the manufacturer following certain federal guidelines. If in doubt,
contact your dealer or the boat manufacturer.
