  • Page 39: Our Environment

    Section 1 Our Environment As a boater, you already appreciate nature’s beauty and the peace of the great outdoors. It is a boater’s responsibility to protect the natural environment by keeping waterways clean. Foreign Species If you trailer your boat from lake to lake, you may unknowingly introduce a foreign aquatic species from one lake to the next.
  • Page 40: Discharge/Disposal Of Waste

    Increased exhaust (hydrocarbon) emissions pollute our water and air. Keep your engine tuned and boat hull clean for peak performance. Consult your Nautique dealer for information. Paints If your boat is kept in water where marine growth is a problem, the use of anti-fouling paint may reduce the growth rate.
  • Page 41: Cleaning Agents

    Section 1 Cleaning Agents Household cleaners should be used sparingly and not discharged into waterways. DO NOT mix cleaners and be sure to use plenty of ventilation in enclosed areas. DO NOT use products which contain phosphates, chlorine, solvents, non-biodegradable or petroleum based products.

    Section 1 SAFETY ALERT From August 28, 2001: The United States Coast Guard advised boaters not to "Teak/Drag Surf." Recent boating fatalities revealed that carbon monoxide (CO) emitted from a vessel’s exhaust resulted in CO poisoning and the death of at least six teak surfers. "Teak/Drag Surfing" places the individual in a position directly exposed to the CO in the engine’s exhaust.
