INTRODUCTION - FANTAIL 217
Please ensure the highest level of safety for yourself and your crew by following safe boating practices. Your on-water experience depends on weather
conditions, the state of the sea, the skipper’s experience and the physical shape of the crew. The sea or the water is not the natural environment for
mankind, and one can only respect its laws and its strength.
Always listen or read a weather forecast or prevision prior to any travel, and ensure that the wind and water conditions will correspond to the design
category of your boat, and that you and your crew are able to handle the boat in these conditions.
Always listen to or read a weather forecast before going out on the water, and ensure that the wind and water conditions will be suitable for your
vessel and that you and your crew are able to handle the boat in whatever conditions may apply.
The Fantail 217 has been designed for sheltered waters. The boat doesn’t exceed 6 knots. Please ensure that environmental conditions – especially
winds and currents – don’t exceed the strength of your electric engine.
This Owner’s Manual contains basic information for properly running the boat, some safety topics, operation and maintenance hints. This Owner’s
Manual does not cover all aspects of maintenance or troubleshooting. You should read it carefully, and familiarize yourself with the craft before using it,
as the information this manual contains is important.
This Owner’s Manual does not comprise a course on boating safety or explain how to navigate, anchor or dock your boat. Your dealer, national boating
federation or yacht club will be pleased to advise you on local boating schools, or refer you to competent instructors.
Please always use a trained professional for maintenance, servicing or fixing your boat, or for minor modifications, but please ensure that technicians
do not significantly modify the aspects of your Fantail 217. When possible, locate a technician that has the written authorization of Canadian Electric
Boat Company, or its legal representative, by contacting Canadian Electric Boat Company at 1-866-479-1099 or 1 (450)-472-5515.
In many countries a driving licence, authorization or training is required to operate a motorized pleasure craft of any kind.
Please make sure you have this legal authorization before venturing out with your boat.
