10.6 Fishing
Fishing can be very exciting and distracting for the operator when the action gets intense. You must
always be conscious of the fact that your primary responsibility is the safe operation of your boat
and the safety of your passengers and other boats in the area.
You must always make sure the helm is properly manned and is never left unattended while trolling.
If your boat is equipped with a tower, caution and good common sense must be exercised whenever
someone is in the tower.
If you are fishing in an area that is crowded with other fishing boats, it may be difficult to follow
the rules of the road. This situation can become especially difficult when most boats are trolling.
Being courteous and exercising good common sense is essential. Avoid trying to assert your right
of way and concentrate on staying clear and preventing tangled or cut lines and other unpleasant
encounters with other boats. Also keep in mind that fishing line wrapped around a propeller shaft
can damage the seals in the outdrive lower unit.
10.7 Grounding and Towing
If the boat should become disabled, or if another craft that is disabled requires assistance, great care
must be taken. The stress applied to a boat during towing may become excessive. Excessive stress
can damage the structure of the boat and create a safety hazard for those aboard.
Freeing a grounded vessel, or towing a boat that is disabled, requires specialized equipment and
knowledge. Line failure and structural damage caused by improper towing has resulted in fatal
injuries. Because of this, we strongly suggest that these activities be left to those who have the
equipment and knowledge, e.g., the U.S. Coast Guard or a commercial towing company, to safely
accomplish the towing task.
THE MOORING CLEATS ON PURSUIT BOATS ARE NOT DESIGNED OR INTENDED TO BE
USED FOR TOWING PURPOSES. THESE CLEATS ARE SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED AS
MOORING CLEATS FOR SECURING THE BOAT TO A DOCK, PIER, ETC. DO NOT USE
THESE FITTINGS FOR TOWING OR ATTEMPTING TO FREE A GROUNDED VESSEL.
WHEN TOWING OPERATIONS ARE UNDERWAY, HAVE EVERYONE ABOARD BOTH VES-
SELS STAY CLEAR OF THE TOW LINE AND SURROUNDING AREA. A TOW LINE THAT
SHOULD BREAK WHILE UNDER STRESS CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS.
