It takes training and experience to become an "expert
yachtsman." Reading and understanding this Owner's
Guide gives you only part of the knowledge you’ll need
to operate a boat safely and skillfully.
Carver Owners have a wide range of abilities, from
seasoned yachtsmen with years of experience to abso-
lute beginners with a new-found love for the water. Be
honest with yourself in appraising your level of skill.
Before taking your boat on its first outing, be sure that
the following tasks have been completed.
1. Your Carver Dealer has completed Pre-Delivery
commissioning. This inspection is documented on
the Pre-Delivery Service Document and is signed by
the dealer and the owner.
2. All warranty registration cards have been com-
pleted and mailed.
3. You have read and understand this Owner's Guide
and all OEM information.
4. The safety equipment onboard your boat is in
compliance with federal, state and local regula-
tions.
5. Your boat has been documented or registered and
displays the appropriate identification on the hull.
6. A representative of your Carver Dealer has re-
viewed the operation of the boat and its systems
with you and answered all of your questions to your
satisfaction.
If possible, pick a calm day for your first outing. The
shakedown cruise with a new boat is not the best time
to bring friends or guests along. Entertaining guests can
distract you from the real purpose of the cruise, which
is to familiarize yourself with your new boat. Bring only
those people (spouse and children) who will make up
your regular crew. Invite the sales person who sold you
the boat or a member of your Carver Dealer's service
staff along for the ride.
