Throughout this manual specific precautions and symbols identify safety-related information. You will

find

DANGER

, CAUTION, WARNING, NOTICE and SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS symbols which require special

attention. Please read them carefully and follow these precautions as indicated! They will explain how to

avoid hazards that may endanger you, your passengers, towed participants, and other boaters. PLEASE

REVIEW ALL SAFETY INFORMATION.

DANGER indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided,

will result in death or serious injury.

WARNING indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided,

could result in death or serious injury.

CAUTION indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided,

could result in minor or moderate injury.

NOTICE is used to address practices not related to physical

injury.

Safety instructions (or equivalent) signs indicate specific

safety-related instructions or procedures.

Make sure you understand all of the operating instructions prior to attempting to operate this boat.

Boating-related accidents are generally caused by the operator’s failure to follow basic safety rules or

written precautions. Most accidents can be avoided if the operator is completely familiar with the boat

and its operation, follows recommended practices, and is able to recognize and avoid potentially hazardous

situations.

Past accident data shows that most

fatalities

involve actions which cause falls or ejections overboard,

mishaps with towed persons, propeller strikes, collisions, and carbon monoxide exposure. Past accident

data shows that most

injuries

are associated with collisions, mishaps with towed persons, falls or ejections

overboard, being struck by the propeller, and fires and explosions. These incidents are mostly caused

by operator inattention, operator inexperience, reckless operation, alcohol/drug use, excessive speed,

passenger or towed person behavior, and violation of navigation rules.

Failure to observe the safety recommendations contained in this manual may result in severe personal

injury or death to you or to others.

Use caution and common sense when operating your boat. Don’t take

unnecessary chances! Basic safety rules are outlined in this section of the manual.

Failure to follow these precautions may result in severe injury

or death to you and/or others.

The operator shall:

• Check that weather conditions are safe for boating. It is the driver’s responsibility to determine if

weather or other factors have created an unsafe boating environment. Boaters must continuously be

aware of weather conditions. Sudden storms, wind, water conditions, lightning, etc., can unexpectedly
