Warning
When operating the tender:
• You must be responsible if you are using an outboard engine to ensure that pollutants do not enter the water.
• Be careful not to endanger swimmers or anyone around the boat, particularly if you are using an outboard engine.
• You should always moderate your speed ,otherwise this will cause significant wash and waves behind the tender.
• During inflation, do not use a compressed air source (i.e., automotive tyre air compressor) to inflate the tender. Over inflation through the use of
compressed air may result in injury and or rupturing the tender seams.
• If fitted, make sure that the outboard engine is in neutral before starting the engine. Make sure you install the outboard engine at the correct height so
as to prevent cavitation. (cause the prop to be above the waterline) however, installing it too low may cause the prop to splash water into the boat.
• Check national and local boating information such as tide tables and charts as well as safety and local law regulations before using your tender.
• Never exceed the weight carrying capacity stated on the tender’s identification plate.
• Every person in the tender should always wear a life jacket (personal flotation device approved by local law agency)
• Oars or paddles and a repair parts kit should always be carried with the tender for emergencies
• All loads placed in the tender should be uniformly distributed to provide proper boat trim when under way.
• Do not sit on the side tubes, to prevent falling overboard.
• Check weather forecasts and local conditions. Always be sure you have enough fuel to reach shelter. Advise someone where you are going.
• Always start the engine at low speed setting.
• Before using the tender, inflate the tender one day prior to use and check if there is any sign of air leakage.
• You must protect the tender against exposure to the sun (UV) for any extended periods of time; this means the tender should be covered by a suitable
UV blocking cover.
• Over inflation can cause structural damage to your boat. Do not allow your boat to stand in direct sunlight when out of the water (even when covered) as
this may cause over pressure to the point of damage or bursting.
