8. ManufacTurers cerTificaTion
As a boat manufacturer, Sea Ray
®
builds their
products to guidelines established under the Federal
Boat Safety Act of 1971. The Act is promulgated by
the United States Coast Guard who has authority to
enforce these laws on boat manufacturers that sell
products in the United States. Sea Ray
®
ensures
that all of its products comply with these laws.
The National Marine Manufacturers Association
(NMMA) provides Sea Ray
®
with a third party
certication. The NMMA is an organization that
represents the marine industry and assists
manufacturers, boat dealers, marinas, repair
yards, and component suppliers in areas of
legislation, environmental concerns, marine
business growth, and state and federal government
agency interaction. The third party certication
that Sea Ray
®
participates in, uses the well-known
Standards and Recommended Practices of the
American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC).
Sea Ray
®
Boats participates extensively in the
ABYC, which is a nonprofit organization that
develops and publishes voluntary standards and
recommended practices for boat and equipment
design, construction, service, and repair. We utilize
all applicable ABYC standards in the construction
of your Sea Ray
®
boat.
When Sea Ray
®
sells their products worldwide,
they conform to the various rules and regulations
required by other countries. Most notably are
the ISO standards in Europe, which require the
application of the Common European (CE) mark.
This mark, much like the NMMA certification
here in the US, gives you the boat owner specic
information concerning your craft.
9. prep, service, parTs, anD repair
for Your boaT
Sea Ray
®
advises that all rigging, installation,
and prep work on any Sea Ray
®
product be
done by an authorized dealer at the authorized
dealer’s location.
When your boat needs service, parts or repair, take
it to an authorized Sea Ray
®
dealer. To nd a dealer
in your area, contact Sea Ray
®
via the internet at
www.searay.com (international customers please
visit international.searay.com).
To nd repair and parts facilities for the equipment
installed on your boat, refer to the section or manual
for that component.
If a problem is not handled to your satisfaction:
1. Discuss any warranty-related problems directly
with the service manager of the dealership
or your sales person. Give the dealer an
opportunity to help the service department
resolve the matter for you.
2. If a problem arises that has not been resolved
to your satisfaction by your dealer, contact Sea
Ray
®
via the internet at www.searay.com and
the appropriate customer service information
will be provided to you.

constructed in accordance with standards and
specifications published by various international
authorities such as:
Construction Standards for Small Vessels -
Canada
Recreational Craft Directive and applicable ISO
Standards - European Union
AS/NZS Australian/New Zealand Standard
Further information concerning these requirements

mooring, or emergencies, as shown in Fig. 1.1.
WARNING!
While underway, persons on the deck area for
anchoring, mooring, or in emergencies, must be
holding on and be positioned so as to prevent
falling. In bad weather and/or rough water, if it
is essential to be on deck, appropriate safety
equipment should be used to secure persons to
permanent boat hardware.
Your boat was manufactured to specic stability
and otation standards for the capacity shown
on the certication plate. Any increase from the
recommended load capacities will put your boat in
jeopardy of capsizing, swamping, and/or sinking.
In Addition:
Stability may be substantially reduced if
equipment is added above the deck.
Stability is substantially reduced by loose uids
or weight within the hull. Keep bilge area as dry
as possible and close all openings, hatches, and
windows in rough weather.
Distribute passengers and gear as uniformly as
possible from front to rear and left to right.
The manufacturers load rating is the maximum

Boat may be used for extended ocean voyages.
B. Offshore
Maximum wind speed: 40 knots (46 mph)

Boat can be used offshore, but not for extended
ocean voyages.
C. Inshore
Maximum wind speed: 27 knots (31 mph)

The wind speed and wave height specied as the
upper limit for your category of boat does not mean
that you or your passengers can survive if your boat
is exposed to these conditions. It is only the most
experienced operators and crew that may be able
to operate a boat safely under these conditions
You must always be aware of weather conditions
and head for port or protected waters in sufcient
time to avoid being caught in high winds and rough
water. Do not take chances!
