YAMARIN 62 Walk Around
Before docking, prepare the ropes at stern and bow. Approach the dock bow first at a narrow
angle. Just before touching the dock, steer against the dock and shift into reverse. Apply
throttle quickly and sharply. The boat will stop and turn parallel to the dock. If possible, make
the approach into the wind or current, whichever is the strongest, because departure from the
dock is easier when the wind or current pushes the boat from the dock. The easiest way to
depart is by first pushing the stern as far away from the dock as possible. Then slowly reverse
clear of the dock, shift into forward and proceed slowly.
If the wind or current is pushing the boat away from the dock, push the vessel away manually
and slowly drive forward into open water before starting to make a sharp turn. If you turn the
boat too sharply at the dock, the motor may hit the dock or other boats.
The propeller is designed to give its best grip in forward gear. Therefore the propeller
performance is weaker in reverse. Neither does the boat have a similar steering response in
reverse as in forward gear.
WARNING! YAMARIN 62 Walk Around is a fast boat. It needs time to stop from planing
speed. Slow down the speed in good time in advance before beaching or
docking. Learn to estimate the distance the boat needs before it stops.
Remember that steering control is poor, if there is no traction.
WARNING! Do not try to stop the boat with your hand, and do not put your arms or legs
between the boat and the quay, the shore or another vessel! Practise beaching
under favourable conditions! Use engine power moderately but with
determination!
NOTE! When mooring your boat, take into consideration changes in wind
direction, tides, wash from other boats etc. Further information is available
from, for instance, insurance companies .

5.10 Proper use – other recommendations and guidelines
5.10.1

Man-overboard prevention and recovery

The man overboard situation is always serious. Rescue procedures should be practised in
advance when the weather is good, because when someone has fallen overboard, there is no
time for practising.
