the natural beauty and excitement of
the world’s waterways. Welcome to
fun on water!

dom however comes the responsibil-

gers, the people you lend your craft
to, and other water users. Please fol-

your craft with care. Be sure every op-

stands the controls and operation of it
and the importance of courteous, re-
sponsible riding. Each operator has a
responsibility to ensure the safety of
his/her passenger(s) and of other wa-
ter users. Always inform your passen-
