Yamaha AR210 Owner's/Operator's Manual page 73

Do not pull the throttle levers
back to idle when trying to steer
away from objects – you need
throttle to steer.
Be sure passengers are holding
on before making turns. An
unprepared passenger
lose balance and fall.
BOATING WITH PASSENGERS
When one or more passengers are on
board, the boat may handle differently,
so operating it requires a higher degree
of skill.
Remember:
designed for one operator and up to six
passengers only. Never have more
than seven people in the Sport Boat.
Passengers should sit so the weight in
the boat is balanced from side-to-side
and bow-to-stern as much as possible.
If the passenger seat in front of the
helm is used, be sure the operator's
view ahead is not obstructed.
Passengers must sit in one of the seats
and hold onto the grips while putting
could
both feet on the deck.
When passengers are on board,
make sure they are seated and hold-
ing on before you start to acceler-
ate. An unprepared passenger could
lose balance and fall.
BOARDING FROM THE WATER
WARNING
Severe internal injuries can occur if
water is forced into body cavities as
a result of being near the jet thrust
nozzles.
Do not board from the rear, use
swim platform, or swim behind
boat if engines are running.
Stay away from the back of the
boat when engines are running.
