SPECIFICATIONS, DESCRIPTIONS, AND FEATURES

Declaration Of Conformity

The Quicksilver® inflatables smaller than 2,50 m, do not come under the aegis
of the Recreational Craft Directive 2013/53/EC, and therefore, cannot be
certified as complying with it. However, these models are built to meet all
specifications required in the above‑mentioned Directive as well as the ISO
6185 standards.
All boats from 2,50 m and up are CE certified by the Notified Body DMI (NoBo
nr. 2248).

Boat Model

This is an inflatable boat that gets its form, strength and buoyancy by means of
inflation with air. The boat is designed for small voyages in sheltered and open
waters, depending on the design category.

Safety

BOAT CAPACITY: PEOPLE AND PAYLOAD
Never exceed the boat's maximum load capacity as stated on the
manufacturer's capacity plate. The maximum capacity includes the combined
total of all passengers and gear. Excessive accumulations of bilge water
further reduce this capacity. Exceeding the capacity will cause the boat to
ride lower in the water, increasing the chances of taking on water.
Uneven loads can create difficulty in maintaining proper engine trim levels
and boat stability. Always load the boat evenly, and keep heavy loads low in
the boat.
OUTBOARD ENGINE
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.
FUELING
Avoid serious injury or death from a gasoline fire or explosion. Use caution
when filling fuel tanks. Always stop the engine and do not smoke or allow
open flames or sparks in the area while filling fuel tanks.
