Thank You for Choosing a Williams Turbojet
This owner’s handbook has been compiled to help you operate your Turbojet with safety and
pleasure. It contains details of the boat and equipment fitted, together with information on
its operation and maintenance. Please read it carefully, and familiarise yourself with the boat
before using it.
The Williams Turbojet uses water jet propulsion. If this is your first boat or you are changing
to a type of boat you are not familiar with, for your own safety, please ensure that you obtain
handling and operating experience before assuming command of the boat. Your dealer,

competent instructors.

Please keep this handbook in a secure place and hand it to the new
