Before Operating the Boat
2-2
Please refer to the outboard manual for specific run in details for the type of

outboards.
Responsibility
It is the boat owner/ operator’s responsibility to:
•
Know the limitations of the boat
•
Follow the rules of the road
•
Keep a sharp lookout for people and objects in the water
•
Ensure that the anticipated wind and sea conditions will correspond to the design
category of the boat and that the operator and crew are able to handle the boat in these
conditions
•
Never operate when under the influence of drugs or alcohol
•
Be aware of the crew/ passenger’s safety at all times
•
Ensure all crew receive suitable training, particularly with regards to location and
operation of safety equipment
•
Reduce speed when there is limited visibility, rough water, people in the water nearby,
boats or structures
•
Ensure the boat is properly maintained at all times
•
Have the boat inspected by qualified personnel at regular intervals and whenever a cause
for concern is raised
•
Ensure compliance with all legislation in place in the area of operation. These may include
requirements for the carriage of life saving equipment, licensing of the helmsman and
respect for the environment
The owner and users of the boat are responsible for determining its suitability for any and all
selected uses and assumes all risks in connection therewith when used, including the safety of
persons and property, and only operating the boat under safe conditions. It is recommended all
users undergo a marine safety course before going to sea.
Seaworthiness and Crew Ability
Regardless of the boat’s seaworthiness and its certified RCD design category, protection from
freak sea and wind conditions cannot be guaranteed. The ability, experience and fitness of the
crew should therefore be taken into consideration before making any voyage.
