Boating is becoming more popular each and every year.
There are numerous types of recreational vessels on our
waterways today involved in an every growing number
of activities. Therefore, as a Regal yacht owner it is of the
highest priority to learn about general boating practices
before operating your yacht.
Your Regal yacht dealer will answer many questions and
provide valuable "hands on" information during the
completion of the new boat delivery process. In addition,
your dealer has received special factory training on the
product line and his services should be employed to solve any
technical problems and periodic maintenance beyond the
scope of this manual. Also, your Regal yacht dealer carries
a line of factory approved parts and accessories.
Introduction
Your Regal yacht dealer can provide information regarding
national training organizations such as the U.S. Power
Squadron and United States Coast Guard Auxiliary. Along
with other organizations and literature, they can help build
your "boating savvy" by developing the necessary skills and
awareness to be a safe and confi dent skipper.
Also, your local library can assist in providing recommended
boating literature such as Chapman Piloting Seamanship &
Boat Handling by Elbert S. Maloney.
Remember, the waterway conditions can change from
normal to abnormal in a heartbeat. Knowing how to react
quickly comes from experience and knowledge which can
be gained through boating education. Welcome aboard!
