C - 5 OWNER’S LOGS AND RECORDS
At the end of this owner’s manual are several forms
which you will find very helpful.
The Float Plan provides a record of your destination,
departure and return times, boat description, passen-
ger list, and other information about the trip you have
planned. At the bottom of the form is space for listing
emergency telephone numbers in case your return is
delayed past the expected time. It also has space for
indicating information about the person filing this re-
port. Leave the completed form ashore with a respon-
sible person. We recommend you make several cop-
ies of this form each boating season to assure an ample
supply.
The Fuel Log is a handy way to record information
covering engine hours, fuel consumption, miles trav-
eled, as well as RPM (revolutions per minute), average
M.P.H. (miles per hour) and GPH (gallons per hour).
The Service/Maintenance Log provides a record of
maintenance work completed, the date of completion,
and the engine hour reading. This log also helps you
identify the frequency of routine maintenance work, such
as engine oil changes. If you should decide to sell your
boat, it demonstrates to perspective buyers that you
have done a good job taking care of it.
The Service Information Sheet allows you to record
all the pertinent information regarding your Four Winns®
boat. This sheet will be extremely helpful when order-
ing additional/optional parts for your boat or when hav-
ing service work done.
