Fire Protection - YAMARIN 62 Walk Around Owner's Manual

YAMARIN 62 Walk Around
WARNING! Fuel and its vapours are highly explosive. Extreme caution must be exercised
and these instructions must be followed when refuelling. The smell of fuel
always means that there is vaporised fuel in the boat.
If your boat has a teak finish and you think that fuel might splash onto it when refuelling, we
recommend that you wet the surface with water before refuelling. It prevents gasoline from
entering into wood, and no gasoline stains are left
