weather, water or other conditions
are adverse.

that do not pose a hazard to
themselves or the boat.
DO NOT allow passengers to ride on
the bow of a closed bow boat.
DO NOT allow several passengers to
ride in the bow of a small open-bow
boat, causing the boat to “plow” into
the water.

the stern cushion or gunwales.
DO NOT overload the stern.
• Observe manufacturer’s
recommended on-plane seating
locations.

judgement poses a serious threat to yourself

WARNING
Death or serious injury can result if you fail to
observe these safety rules:
• Anyone who controls the boat should
have taken a boating safety course and
have trained in the proper operation of
the boat.
• Always operate the boat at speeds that
will not put people or property in
danger.
• Be constantly aware of conditions in
all directions when underway and
before turning.
• Reduce speed, use a lookout to
identify possible hazards or difficulties,
and turn on navigation lights when:
- visibility is impaired;
- in rough water; and
- in congested waterways.
• Watch your wake. It can capsize a
small boat or damage moored boats or
other property. You are responsible for
damage caused by your wake.
!
WARNING
NEVER operate a boat at a speed at which you
do not feel in control.
!
WARNING
A qualified operator must be in control of the
boat at all times. Do not operate the boat while
under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Never
operate your boat at speeds which exceed
the operator’s ability to react if an emergency
develops. At night, turn on the appropriate
navigation lights and cruise at a reduced speed
that will allow you plenty of time to avoid
dangerous situations.
