Insurance
You must get insurance before operating your new boat. Insurance
for loss by fire, theft or other causes, or liability protection against
accidents is a must for responsible boaters. The boat owner is
legally responsible for any damage or injury caused when he, or
someone else operating the boat, is involved in an accident. Many
states have laws detailing minimum insurance needs. Your
insurance agent or your Nautique dealer may be able to supply you
with more information.
Education Opportunities
This manual is not intended to provide complete training on all
aspects of boat operation. We strongly recommend that all
operators of this boat seek additional training on boat handling
and safety. Have all operators become familiar with the handling
characteristics, and proper steering and control system usage
before attempting high speed operation.
Some states require youths 16 years of age and younger to complete
a boating safety course before operating any watercraft. Many
others require operators under the age of 18 to be licensed in small
boat operation.
Boat smart from the start, take a boating safety course and get a free
vessel safety check annually for your boat. For more information,
contact: United States Coast Guard Auxiliary, www.cgaux.org;
United States Power Squadrons, 1-888-FOR-USPS, www.usps.org.
Most boaters can enhance their enjoyment of boating experiences
through increased knowledge of safe operation, navigation and
regulation of pleasure boats. The following is a list of some other
agencies and organizations that offer Water Safety, First Aid and
CPR courses or information. To find boating safety courses in your
area, call your state’s local boating agency or the USCG boating
safety courseline at 1-800-336-2628 (1-800-245-2628 in Virginia).
