TANDARDS
NMMA Certification
Your Axis boat has been built to meet or exceed the standards set by the National Marine
Manufacturers Association (NMMA). NMMA verifies annually, or whenever a new boat
model is introduced, to determine that they meet not only Coast Guard regulations, but
also the more comprehensive standards set by the American Boat & Yacht Council
(ABYC).
Standards to Which This Boat was Built
Your Axis boat was built with the utmost care throughout the complete manufacturing
process. The deck, hull, stringers and floor, as well as many accessory components, were
built using our hand-laid composite fiberglass scheduling techniques. All boats receive
complete quality control checks. Each boat is lake tested, and all information is kept on
file at our factory for future reference.
Exemption Notice
This boat complies with U.S. Coast Guard safety standards in effect on the date of
certification with the exception of certain fuel systems requirements associated with its
fuel injected engine as authorized by U.S. Coast Guard Grant of Exemption (CGB-06-
005). Maintenance of the fuel system in this boat should be performed only by Axis
Wake Research trained certified technicians using identical fuel system components.
