Before docking, prepare the mooring lines at stern and bow. Approach the dock bow first at
a slight angle. Just before touching the dock, steer into it and shift into reverse. Apply
throttle quickly and sharply. The boat will stop and turn parallel to the dock. If possible,
make the approach into the wind or current, whichever is the strongest. This makes
departing easier, as the wind or current will push the bow out from the dock. The easiest
way to depart is to first push the stern as far away from the dock as possible, and then
slowly reverse away from the dock into open water.
The propeller is designed to have the best grip in forward gear. Therefore, propeller
performance is weaker in reverse. The steering response is also not as good in reverse as in
forward gear.
WARNING!
The boat is fast. If you are planing, it takes time to come to a stop.
Slow down in time before anchoring, beaching or docking. Learn
to estimate the distance the boat needs to stop. Remember that
steering control is poor if there is no traction.
WARNING!
Do not try to stop the boat with your hands, and do not put your
arm or foot between the boat and the dock, the shore or another
vessel! Practise beaching and docking under favourable
conditions! Use moderate but firm engine power!
NOTE!
When securing your boat, take into consideration the possibility
of changes in wind direction, rising or sinking of the water level,
bow wakes, etc. You can get more information from your
insurance company, for example.

Using the canopy
The canopy is designed to withstand a maximum speed of 30 knots at sea, and 50 km/h in
road transport. All fasteners must be properly fastened when using the canopy. We
recommend that you remove the sides and back of the canopy to make it fit into the canopy
box more easily. Then, fold the upper parts of the sides entirely on top of the roof, so that no
fabric remains where the corners of the canopy supports are. Finally, roll up the roof part
along with the sides folded on top of it, and lower the canopy into the canopy box.
