Pre-operation checks

Pre-operation check points

Pre-launch checks

Perform the pre-launch checks in the "Pre-
operation checklist" while the boat is on land.

Steering system checks

Make sure the steering wheel is not loose.
There should not be any free play, either in-
and-out or in rotation. Turn the steering wheel
fully to the right and left to make sure opera-
tion is smooth and unrestricted throughout
the whole range.
Make sure the jet thrust nozzle changes di-
rections as the steering wheel is turned. The
jet thrust nozzle should point to starboard
(right) when the wheel is turned to the right.
The jet thrust nozzle should point to port (left)
when the wheel is turned to the left. There
should not be free play between the steering
wheel and the jet thrust nozzle. In addition,
check that the direction of the articulating
keel changes according to the movement of
the jet thrust nozzle.
