part along with the sides folded on top of it, and lower the canopy into the canopy box.
NOTE!
The windscreen and canopy do not necessarily form a watertight seal. Water may enter
the boat between the canopy and windscreen when the canopy is up.
9.9. Doors and hatches
Doors must always be kept shut and locked while driving.
WARNING!
Large waves or gusts of wind may slam the door shut also when the boat is stationary. It is
thus recommended to always keep the door closed when passage through the bow deck is
not being used. The bow anchor box hatch is equipped with a rubber band that holds the
hatch closed while driving.
WARNING!
It is recommended that children do not use the hatch, as their fingers or toes could get
caught in it.
9.10. Proper use – other recommendations and guidelines
9.10.1 Man overboard
It is always a serious situation when someone falls overboard. Rescue procedures should
be practised in advance during good weather, because it is too late for practice when
someone has actually fallen into the water.
The boat is equipped with the fixed swim ladder that can be lowered down from the water.
It is always easiest to help a person climb back on board at the stern of the boat. A rope
loop attached to the boat helps lifting. The boat’s swim ladder extends 30 cm into the wa -
ter.
It is very important to maintain visual and verbal contact with a person that has fallen
overboard.
DANGER!
A rotating propeller presents a life-threatening danger to a swimmer or a person who has
fallen overboard. Always use the emergency switch to turn off the engine when a swimmer
or water skier is about to enter the water or re-enter the boat from the water.
9.10.2 Securing loose equipment
Stow all heavy equipment, such as anchors, and secure them firmly before setting off.
