Anchoring; Docking And Tie-Up - Axis A20 Owner's Manual

Consult with your authorized Axis dealer regarding the best selection for
an anchor and how to properly attach it to your boat. Always anchor from the
bow of the boat as it has less chance to breaking free if a heavy wind or sea
conditions arise.
Docking a boat requires considerable practice to be effective and avoid
damage to the boat. Docking must always be done at slow speed.
Before attempting to dock, practice in an open body of water. Slow the
throttle to no-wake speed. Shift into neutral and drift slowly toward the dock. If
necessary, shift the boat into reverse to further slow or stop the boat.

Never insert a hand, arm or other body part between
the dock and the boat, or attempt to keep the boat
from hitting the dock. The boat could push against the dock, pinning
the appendage and causing severe injury.
