Gelcoat surfaces are slippery when wet. Use extreme
caution when walking on wet surfaces.
Never occupy the working decks while the boat is
underway.
Be aware of your footing while the boat is underway.
Slipping or falling could result in serious injury or death,
especially if the boat is in motion or in rough seas. Keep the
accommodation clean, so if movement is necessary, it will
be free of obstruction.
Do not attempt to operate boat in severe weather
conditions. Death or serious injury can occur. Get to shore
before the weather turns bad.
