! DANGER
! WARNING
CARBON MONOXIDE CAN BE FATAL In all gasoline powered boats, engine exhaust systems
produce colorless, odorless carbon monoxide gas (’CO’) Direct prolonged exposure can result in
CO poisoning which may be harmful or fatal. to prevent excess exposure and reduce the possibility of
accumulations of CO in the boat, the operator should include adequate ventilation through utilization of cabin
hatches and walk-through windshields to increase air movement through the boat. The following conditions tend
to increase the accumulation of CO in and about the boat and require the operator’s particular attention:
INDICATIONS OF EXCESSIVE EXPOSURE TO ‘CO’ CONCENTRATIONS MAY INCLUDE NAUSEA, DIZZINESS, HEADACHE AND DROWSINESS.
Operation at slow speeds or dead in water. Utilization of canvas tops, side curtains or back curtains.
Any blockage of hull exhaust outlets.
Operation with a high bow angle attitude. Operation of engines and/or generator in confined spaces or at dockside.
Contributing climatic conditions, such as headwind.
AVOID RISK OF INJURY OR DEATH. SHUTOFF ENGINE NEAR SWIMMERS OR PRIOR TO USING SWIM PLATFORM, SUNPAD OR BOARDING LADDER.
USE CAUTION WITH SKIER IN TOW AS ROPE MAY BACKLASH INTO COCKPIT WHEN RELEASED
AVOID COLLISIONS - Maintain lookout as required by “Rules of the Road”. Visibility can be limited
by high boat trim angles, persons and gear. Such issues are considered under the control of the operator.
NOTICE: It is recommended that all occupants wear approved Personal Flotation Devices (PFD’s).

Cleats must not be used for lifting the boat; they are
intended for docking or mooring use only.
A. LIGHTING
Your boat is equipped with a variety of different
lighting fixtures. Always replace a bulb using the
type and wattage of the original bulb.
8. NAVIGATION AND ANCHOR LIGHTS
Navigation lights MUST be on while underway
from sunset to sunrise or in conditions of
reduced visibility. "Underway" means the boat
is not docked or at anchor. Trolling or drifting
with engine off is considered "underway" and
navigation lights must be used.
If you are anchored in open water, i.e. where other
boats can approach yours, you must display your
anchor light: a white light that can be seen from all
possible directions, i.e. 360 degrees.
