Housed in an aluminum billet with an adjustable arm, the
optional mirror offers high-definition, prescrip-
tion-grade optics with a 140-degree field of
view.
The mirror is adjustable by way of a clamp on
the tower. The mirror should be removed and
stowed in a storage compartment inside the
boat if the boat will be towed any substantial distance.

ers. They may be supplied as part of a package.
on and under the water
One of most critical elements of the boat is the blower system. There are im -
portant things to remember when operating the boat:
Always operate the blower for several minutes prior to starting the engine, en -
suring the engine compartment is open. This should also be done when idling or
running at low speed. This allows the disbursing of fumes that otherwise allowed
to accumulate could result in an explosion.
The blower is controlled from an ON-OFF switch on the dash.
Always operate the blower for several minutes prior to starting the
engine, running at a low speed or at idle. This must be done with the
engine compartment open. Failure to perform this necessary function
could result in an explosion of the accumulated fumes within the com-
partment, resulting in serious injury or death.
The blower system vents carbon monoxide, a naturally occurring by-product of the engine
and drive train operation, through the exhaust manifold, muffler, exhaust lines and flap combine
to remove dangerous carbon monoxide and other naturally occurring toxic by-products from the
engine and drive train operation. The emissions primarily are eliminated through the exhaust
flap located beneath the swim platform. Although much of the exhaust is disbursed into and
through the water, fumes still reach the swim platform and transom area of the boat, including
the sun pads. Therefore, no one should ever be on the swim platform, transom or sun pads when
the engine is operating.
Never allow anyone to be on the swim platform, transom or sun pads
when the engine is running. Carbon monoxide fumes are colorless and
odorless. Illness and death can result from breathing fumes, even before
a person is aware of breathing them. See the Safety section of this Own-
er’s Manual for more information regarding this critical matter.
Always allow the exhaust manifolds to cool before touching them. (The
manifolds are on the upper side of the engine on both sides.) Engine
operation will result in the manifolds becoming very hot, and touching
could result in burns to the skin.
