Section 1 Safety
Dive/Rescue Door
Your boat might be equipped with a dive/rescue door.
The dive/rescue door can expand your operational
capabilities by providing easy access to the water and
to the boat.
Operating a Boston Whaler when the dive/rescue door
is out requires experience and a high level of skill.
Always operate any boat within the limits of your expe-
rience. If you do not have this experience, ask some-
one to instruct you or gain experience through
experimentation under controlled conditions.
Water can come into the boat when the dive/rescue
door is removed. You must manage the water, the
rescue operation, and all personnel to avoid swamping
or capsizing your boat. Refer to Load Distribution in
Section 2 for additional information.
When your dive/rescue door is in place, it must be
secured with the cam locks provided. When your dive/
rescue door is out, it must be stored and secured in
the storage blocks provided.
!
WARNING
The dive/rescue door is a specialized piece of
rescue equipment. All posted USCG and NMMA
load capacities are suspended when the dive/
rescue door is out. Operate your boat carefully
to avoid swamping or capsizing.
!
DANGER
Always monitor the amount of water on the
deck while the dive/rescue door is out. An
unexpected shift in water weight might cause
your boat to capsize.
