    SAFE BOATING RECOMMANDATIONS : 1 - Always wear a life jacket Local authorities require that you carry an approved flotation device, or life jacket, for each per- son aboard your vessel. We recommend wearing a life jacket at all times while boating because you never know when an accident may occur.

Shut off the engine before boarding from the water. Warning Shall the operator or passenger fall out the bot, the possibility of serious injury or death from being run over by the boat can be greatly reduced by stopping the engine imediately.

If open (spring compressed, down postion) push the plunger down and rotate to the closed position. Connect the air pump to the valve, rotate the connector into the valve to lock it and start inflat- ing.

To drain the bilge area, please unscrew the plug which is installed on the transom. Make sure this plug is correctly screwed before using the boats.
  • Page 13 Performance To achieve best performance, the boat must plane. If the boat does not plane, you may check the following: - Make sure sure the bilge / deck is dry, drain the water othewise. - Make sure the tube is correctly inflated. - Make sure you have the correct weight distribution.
  • Page 14 Towing Your boat can be towed using the towing eye located at the bow. The boat must be empty when towed. Remove outboard motor, fuel tank and equipment. No passenger should be aboard. The boat should be towed at low speed. Make sure to use a tow line that is rated at least 5 times the weight of the boat being towed.
