Only boat operators with knowledge of correct technique should undertake to tow. Move slowly to prevent
strain on the line, and be ready to cast loose or cut the line if conditions become hazardous.
Anchoring
Consult with your authorized Malibu dealer regarding the best selection for an anchor and how to properly
attach it to your boat. Always anchor from the bow of the boat as it has less chance of breaking free if a heavy
wind occurs or water conditions worsen.
Docking and Tie-Up
Docking a boat requires considerable practice to be effective and avoid damage to the boat. Docking must
always be done at slow speed.
Before attempting to dock, practice in an open body of water. Slow the throttle to no-wake speed. Shift into
neutral and drift slowly toward the dock. If necessary, shift the boat into reverse to further slow or stop the boat.
