perhaps even practiced. Take time to inspect the life jacket sand adjust the fit for each member of your party.
Always wear life preservers in the dingy and make sure that young children always wear a life jacket when out of
the cabin. The dingy operator should wear on his wrist the red lanyard that is connected to the automatic engine

BOAT OPERATION
Introduction
Please familiarize yourself with the instruction manuals for all the equipment on the boat. All manuals
are stored in the roll out locker beneath the lower helm seat. Most of the manuals are in two three ring
binders on the lower shelf. An index to these manuals is located in a blue folder at the top of the roll out
locker and also at the end of this Manual. Larger manuals, i.e., engine, transmission, waterrmaker,
electronic navigation equipment, etc., are stored separately in the top shelf of the roll out locker.
Paper navigation charts covering the San Juan Islands, Puget Sound and British Columbia are stored in
the forward cabin in the racks above the beds and are in numerical order. After using a chart please
replace it in the correct order in the rack. A list of these charts is in front of the filed charts and also at
the end of this manual. Please review this list prior to departure to ensure that your intended cruising
area is covered. In addition, a waterproof chart of the San Juan Islands (number 43 which includes a
number of the most popular charts for the area) is stored in the ceiling rail in the salon. Alaskan charts
are located in the cupboard on the port side of the master berth. There is a parallel ruler navigation kit
in the drawer under the helm seat and a second on in the cupboard on the port side of the master berth
with the Alaska Charts.
