AFT SWIM PLATFORM AND LADDER

An aft swim platform is found on the Scarab models.
See Figure C6. The swim platform creates more
space for water sport activities and has a skid-resis-
tant surface. A swim platform mat may also available.

Do not sit on, occupy or hang on any stern
appendages (e.g., swim platforms, boarding
ladders, etc.) while underway. Do not body surf,
persons in close proximity to the stern of the
boat. See Figure A14. This activity can also
increase the possibility of injury due to contact
with water or debris exiting the jet nozzle.
The Scarab models have a stern ladder that is tele-
scoping and located under the swim platform, at its
center. The ladder allows for reboarding the boat from
the water. A grab handle is built into the swim platform
to make reboarding easier. See Figures C6 & C7.
1) Remove the retaining cords from the end of the
ladder.
2) Extend the ladder straight out horizontally.
3) Once extended, allow the ladder to swing down
into the water.
