FOREWORD
SAFETY INFORMATION
Reminders Regarding Operation
Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide
(CO), which can cause injury or death if in-
haled in sufficient quantities. Educate all oc-
cupants about the risks and symptoms of CO
accumulation and CO poisoning. For more in-
formation, refer to CARBON MONOXIDE
AND BOATING section.
Gasoline vapors can explode, resulting in in-
jury or death. Always use blower for a mini-
mum of 5 minutes before starting engine, then
turn it OFF above idle speed. Use of the bilge
blower should never replace “smelling” for
gasoline vapor odors.
If at any time, gasoline leaks/odors are found,
do not start the engine. Have the boat ser-
viced by an authorized Rotax Jet Propulsion
marine engine dealer.
Always keep in mind that as the throttle lever
is returned to the idle position, less directional
control is available. To turn the boat, both
steering and throttle are necessary.
This boat has no brake. Stopping distance will
vary depending on initial speed, load, wind,
and water conditions. Practice stopping and
docking in a safe, traffic-free area to have an
idea of how long it will take to stop the boat
under varying conditions. Do not release the
throttle when trying to steer away from ob-
jects. You need throttle to steer. Do not use
the boat's reverse to stop.
Do not start or operate the boat if any person
is not properly seated in a seat intended for
use when underway (refer to boat labels) or if
a person is nearby in the water.
The boat's jet thrust can cause injury. Always
accelerate slowly, and decelerate in a con-
trolled fashion.
Observe the instructions on all safety labels.
They are there to help assure that you have a
safe and enjoyable outing.
Riding with passenger(s) or pulling other
boats, tubes, a skier or a wakeboarder makes
the boat handle differently and requires great-
er skills.
In shallow water, proceed with caution and at
very low speeds. Grounding or abrupt stops
may result in injury to you, your passengers or
others. The jet pump may pick up debris and
throw it rearward causing a risk of injuring
people or damaging the jet pump or other
property.
Combustion engines need air to operate; con-
sequently this boat can not be totally water-
tight. Any maneuvers such as figure eights
that cause the upper deck to be under water
may cause severe engine problems due to
water ingestion. Refer to the SPECIAL PRO-
CEDURES and WARRANTY sections con-
tained in this Operators Manual.
Respect no wake zones, the rights of other
water users and the environment. As the
“skipper” and owner of a boat, you are re-
sponsible for damage to other boats caused
by the wake of your boat. Do not let anyone
throw refuse overboard.
Between sunset and sunrise, use the boat's
navigation lights and reduce speed. Do not
operate the boat in reduced visibility.
Do not add accessories or equipment that
may adversely affect visibility or alter control
of the boat.
The skipper should personally take the helm
during storms.
WARNING
Avoid personal injury! Do not allow any-
one near the jet pump or intake grate,
even when the engine is off. Items such
as long hair, loose clothing or personal
flotation device straps can become
entangled in moving parts resulting in
serious injury or drowning. In shallow
water, shells, sand, pebbles or other
objects could be drawn up by the jet
pump and be thrown rearward.

any of the following:
1) Maintenance or other service BRP or BRP’s authorized facilities performed.
2) Engine/equipment repair work that an operator performed to correct an unsafe, emergency
condition attributable to BRP as long as the operator tries to restore the engine/equipment
to its proper configuration as soon as possible.

ident or subsequently warranty registered to a California resident. The BRP limited warranty
conditions for Rotax® Inboard Jet Propulsion Systems are still applicable to these models with
the necessary modifications. Select emission control parts of your Rotax® Inboard Jet Propul-
sion System are warranted from the date of delivery to the first retail consumer for a period of
36 months, or for 480 hours of use, whichever occurs first. However, warranty coverage based
on the hourly period is only permitted for boats equipped with the appropriate hour meters or
their equivalent. If any emission-related part on your engine is defective under warranty, the
part will be repaired or replaced by BRP.
Parts Covered For Boats Equipped With Rotax Inboard Jet Propulsion
Systems:
The emission warranty covers damage to other engine components that is caused by the fail-
ure of a warranted part.
The BRP Operators Manual provided contains written instructions for the proper maintenance
and use of your Inboard Jet Propulsion System. All emission warranty parts are warranted by
BRP for the entire warranty period of the engine, unless the part is scheduled for replacement
as required maintenance in the Operators Manual.
Emission warranty parts that are scheduled for replacement, as required maintenance, are
warranted by BRP for the period of time before the first scheduled replacement date for that
part. Emission warranty parts that are scheduled for regular inspection, but not regular re-
placement, are warranted by BRP for the entire warranty period of the engine. Any emission
warranty part repaired or replaced under the terms of this warranty statement is warranted by

OWNER‘S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES
As the owner of a boat with a Rotax® Inboard Jet Propulsion System, you are responsible for
the performance of the required maintenance listed in your Operators Manual. BRP recom-
mends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance your boat engine, but BRP cannot
deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or your failure to ensure the performance of all
scheduled maintenance. As the owner of a Rotax® Inboard Jet Propulsion System, you should
however be aware that BRP may deny you warranty coverage if your engine(s) or a part has
failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications. You are re-
sponsible for presenting your engine to an authorized BRP Dealer as soon as a problem ex-
ists. The warranty repairs will be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30

Safety And Warranty Information
SPECIAL SAFETY MESSAGES
CARBON MONOXIDE AND BOATING
Burning a material containing carbon produces carbon monoxide (CO), an odorless and col-
orless gas. Because CO has a similar density as air, it can spread throughout an enclosed
space unnoticed because you cannot see it or smell it. Any device used to burn carbon-based
materials on a boat can be a source of CO. Common sources of CO include internal combus-
tion engines.
CO reacts with the blood to reduce the ability of the blood to carry oxygen. The reduced oxy-
gen supply to body tissues results in death of the tissue. Prolonged exposure can cause brain
damage or death. In high concentrations, CO can be fatal within minutes. The effects of CO in
lower concentrations are cumulative and can be just as lethal over long periods of time.
Symptoms of CO poisoning include: Itchy and watering eyes, flushed appearance, throbbing
temples, inability to think coherently, ringing in the ears, tightness across the chest, head-
aches, drowsiness, nausea, dizziness, fatigue, vomiting, collapse, and convulsions. If any of
these symptoms are evident, begin treatment immediately. Prompt action can make the differ-
ence between life and death.
Evacuate the area and move the victim to fresh air.
Administer oxygen if available and get medical help.
Open all canvas enclosures to ventilate the area.
Investigate the source of CO and take immediate corrective action.
Be especially aware of other CO sources which may be near boat.
Carbon Monoxide Accumulation
Following are examples of possible situations where CO may accumulate within your boat
while docked, anchored, or underway. Become familiar with these examples and their precau-
tions to prevent personal injury or death.
WARNING
Exhaust fumes! Generator or hull exhaust from other vessels while either docked or
anchored can emit poisonous CO gas and cause excessive accumulation within
cabin and cockpit areas. Be alert for generator exhaust from your vessel or other ves-
sels alongside. Exhaust outlets near a pier, dock, seawall or outlets blocked by any
other means can cause excessive accumulation of poisonous CO gas within cockpit
area.
B00059
15
SPECIAL SAFETY MESSAGES
Boat houses, seawalls, and other boats in close proximity or confined areas can contribute to
increased CO levels. Operators must be aware that operation, mooring, and anchoring in an
area with other boats puts them in jeopardy of CO accumulation from other sources. Likewise,
a boat operator must be aware of how exhaust from his boat will affect others. Operation of
the engines while moored may cause CO accumulation in your boat and those around you.
Be sure to provide adequate ventilation. If the windshield has vents, open them before getting
underway to increase positive air flow and decrease the chances of CO accumulation.
While underway, CO concentrations can increase by backdrafting or “the station wagon ef-
fect”. Backdrafting is caused by factors such as relative wind direction, speed, or the bow be-
ing too high. To prevent this, open canvas whenever possible to provide positive airflow
through the hull.
WARNING
Engine exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide (CO) which can accumulate in and
around the boat (under bimini top, in cockpit, etc.). CO can be harmful or fatal if
inhaled. Assure there is adequate ventilation whenever running engine(s).
B00060
WARNING
Backdrafting! Under certain conditions, moving air currents can direct poisonous CO
fumes into boat. These fumes can accumulate to dangerous levels without proper air-
flow. Provide adequate ventilation, redistribute the load or bring boat out of high bow
angle.
16
Safety And Warranty Information
Even with the best boat design and construction, CO may still accumulate in enclosed or con-
fined areas under certain conditions. Continually observe passengers for symptoms of CO poi-
soning.
CO Detector
It is strongly recommended that you have CO detectors installed in boats with canvas enclo-
sures. Monitors are available from your dealer. Monitors should be professionally installed and
calibrated.
A CO detector is not a gas fuel vapor detector. Gas fuel vapor detectors do not monitor the
buildup of CO in an enclosed area.
DO NOT Operate your Boat Without Performing the Following Checklist:
Each Boating Use
B00061
OPERATION SIGN
Make sure you and your passengers know where exhaust outlets
are located on the vessel.
Educate all passengers about the symptoms of CO poisoning
and where CO may accumulate.
When docked or rafting with another boat, be aware of exhaust
emissions from the other boat.
Listen for any change in exhaust sound, which could indicate an
exhaust component failure.
Test the operation of each CO alarm by pressing the test button
(if applicable).
