OPERATING YOUR BOAT

THINGS TO REMEMBER

1. Always wear your engine kill / shutoff 

lanyard when you start and operate the boat 

- IT CAN SAVE YOUR LIFE !

2.  Always wear a P.F.D. when operating a 

Solo Skiff - it can save your life and is re-

quired by law.

3. Do not over steer your boat, doing so 

could throw you out of the boat.

4. Be sure the hatch latch is secured to keep 

your hatch closed. Keep it latched at all 

times.

5. Make sure your plug is in the cooler drain.

6. If your motor has reverse gear - GO AT 

IDLE SPEED ONLY!

7. The Solo Skiff is a small personal wa-

tercraft that is not meant for rough water 

use. Operating the boat in rough water can 

lead to the boat being flipped upside down. 

Always use caution when approaching boat 

wakes , waves. Keep your Solo Skiff in calm 

conditions.

8. Never stand while operating the Solo 

Skiff.

9. Slowly get accustomed to your boat in the 

water.

10. Never use the grab bar to tow another 

boat. You can damage the bar and molded in 

mounts in the hull.

GRADUALLY TURN YOUR SKIFF !

DO NOT TURN 

THE SKIFF TOO 

SHARPLY OR 

QUICKLY !! 

USING ‘360’REVERSE :

SOME SMALL ENGINES ALLOW YOU TO GO IN REVERSE 

USE BY SPINNING THEM 360 DEGREES.  IF YOU ARE NOT 

VERY CAREFUL, THE ENGINE CAN SWING UP AND THE 

PROPELLER HIT YOUR HULL WHEN YOU GO IN REVERSE. 

WE SUGGEST YOU DO NOT DO THIS TO AVOID POSSIBLE 

HULL DAMAGE THAT COULD ALLOW WATER IN YOUR 

HULL.

TURNING THE BOAT TOO 

QUICKLY - ABRUPTLY - 

SHARPLY CAN THROW YOU 

OUT OF THE BOAT. DO NOT 

TURN TOO SHARP !

 GRADUALLY GET ACCUS-

TOMED TO HOW THE BOAT 

TURNS AND BE CAREFUL 

ALWAYS.
