be on the seating provided or, if standing,
holding on firmly.
While the person at the wheel must alert
passengers before any sudden or erratic boat
movement, such as crossing wakes, rapid turns,
sudden acceleration or deceleration, etc., an
emergency action may be necessary before
passengers can be warned. all passengers
must be prepared for rapid boat movement and
be able to hold on to prevent loss of balance.
2. When persons are on the working deck area,
for anchoring, mooring, or in emergencies,
they 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,
persons should be closely tied to cleats, railing
stanchions, or other securely fastened boat
hardware.

fully down if the boat is near swimmers or
persons are on the swim platform or the swim
ladder.

You can fall overboard or be injured by hitting
something in or on the boat.
All persons must be in cockpit area or cabin and be

ClEaTs: Cleats must not be used for lifting
the boat; they are intended for docking or mooring
use only.
BOW anD sTERn EyEs: The bow eye must be
used to haul the boat onto a trailer. The stern eyes
must be used as tie down points for trailering the
boat. The bow and stern eyes may be used for short
term lifting of the boat such as for service. long
term lifting with the bow and stern eyes may cause
stress on the fiberglass and gel coat.
for long term storage, use flat, wide belt-type slings
and spreaders long enough to keep pressure from
gunwales. Do not place slings where they may lift
on underwater fittings.
