14. Engines

Your boat is propelled by a single Mercury outboard engine. The maximum propulsion power rating
for the craft is 44.1 kW. Do not operate this craft with a combined engine power rating larger than
that posted on the power capacity label in the craft. The maximum power rating label is located at the
helm, under the capacity plate.
Do not operate this craft with an engine of rated power
greater than that posted on the capacity label. Do not
operate at maximum speed while in congested waterways,
or in weather or sea conditions of reduced visibility, high
winds or large waves. Reduce speed and wake as a courtesy
to others. Observe & obey speed limits and no wake zones.
Quicksilver® recommends that you fully comply with the manual provided by the engine
manufacturer. Follow the recommended maintenance and warranty schedule in your Engine
Operator's Manual. Refer to the Engine Owner's Manual for operating instructions and warranty
information. The engines are warranted directly by Mercury, not by Quicksilver®.

15. Trailering

Quicksilver® does not offer a trailer for this boat, however, if you plan on purchasing one from another
vendor, please consider the following:
•
The trailer should have a center roller and keel guards which will help provide good support for
the keel.
•
Trailers with bunks provide a more even weight distribution.
•
The mass of your boat in trailering condition is 739 kg. This includes the weight of a fully
optioned boat along with full liquid loads. This does not include gear weight usually associated
with operating the vessel.
