Chapter 12:
OPERATION
12.1 General
Before you start the engines on your Monterey,
you should have become familiar with the vari-
ous component systems and their operation and
have performed a “Precruise System Check.” A
thorough understanding of the component sys-
tems and their operation is essential to the proper
operation of the boat. This manual and the as-
sociated manufacturers’ information is provided
to enhance your knowledge of your boat. Please
read them carefully.
Your boat must have the necessary safety equip-
ment on board and be in compliance with the U.S.
Coast Guard, local and state safety regulations.
There should be one Personal Flotation Device
(PFD) for each person. Nonswimmers and small
children should wear PFDs at all times. You should
know and understand the “Rules of the Road” and
have had an experienced operator brief you on the
general operation of your new boat. At least one
other person should be instructed on the proper
operation of the boat in case the operator is sud-
denly incapacitated.
The operator is responsible for his safety and
the safety of his passengers. When boarding
or loading the boat, always step onto the boat,
never jump. All passengers should be properly
seated whenever the boat is operated above idle
speed. Your passengers should not be allowed to
sit on the seat backs, gunnels, bows, or transoms
whenever the boat is underway. The passengers
also should be seated to properly balance the
load and must not obstruct the operator’s view,
particularly to the front.
Overloading and improper distribution of weight
can cause the boat to become unstable and are
signifi cant causes of accidents. Know the weight
capacity and horsepower rating of your boat. Do
not overload or overpower your boat.
You should be aware of your limitations and the
limitations of your boat in different situations or
sea conditions. No boat is indestructible, no mat-
ter how well it is constructed. Any boat can be
severely damaged if it is operated in a manner
that exceeds its design limitations. If the ride is
hard on you and your passengers, it is hard on
the boat as well. Always modify the boat speed
in accordance with the sea conditions, boat traffi c
and weather conditions.
Remember, it is the operator’s responsibility
to use good common sense and sound judge-
ment in loading and operating the boat.
12.2 Rules of the Road
As in driving an automobile, there are a few rules
you must know for safe boating operation. The
following information describes the basic naviga-
tion rules and action to be taken by vessels in a
crossing, meeting or overtaking situations while
operating in inland waters. These are basic ex-
amples and not intended to teach all the rules of
navigation. For further information consult the
“Navigation Rules” or contact the Coast Guard,
Coast Guard Auxiliary, Department of Natural Re-
sources, or your local boat club. These organiza-
tions sponsor courses in boat handling, including
rules of the road. We strongly recommend such
courses. Books or videos on this subject also are
available from your local library.
Note: Sailboats not under power, paddle
boats, vessels unable to maneuver,
vessels engaged in commercial fi shing
and other vessels without power have
the right of way over motor powered
boats. You must stay clear or pass to
the stern of these vessels. Sailboats
under power are considered motor
boats.
Crossing Situations
When two motor boats are crossing, the boat
on the right has the right of way. The boat with
the right of way should maintain its course and
speed. The other vessel should slow down and
permit it to pass. The boats should sound the
appropriate signals.
Meeting Head-On or Nearly-So Situations
When two motor boats are approaching each other
head-on or nearly head-on, neither boat has the
right of way. Both boats should reduce their speed
and turn to the right so as to pass port side to port
