Your EdgeWater 225 EX has been designed to be powered by a single outboard engine. If the outboard model you chose is two-cycle,
make sure to monitor oil level in the oil tank, located in the aft starboard locker.
Each outboard manufacturer provides manuals to carefully detail operation and maintenance of their products. Please read and
observe the instructions set forth in your outboard manual.

Registration
Registering your boat is important to you. Federal Law requires that all powered, undocumented vessels be registered in their state of
principal use. Contact the appropriate agency in your local state to obtain specific registration information.
Reporting Boating Accidents
All boating accidents must be reported to the proper authorities in the state which the accident occurred. If someone dies or disap-
pears as a result of the recreational boating accident, it must be reported immediately, with a formal report being made within 48
hours. If there is damage of more than $500, or if the boat is completely lost, a formal report must be made within 10 days.
A “Boating Accident Report” form is located in the back of this manual, and if you need additional information you may obtain it by
calling the Boating Safety Hotline, 800-368-5647.
Education
Whether or not you are an experienced boater, attending a Boating Education Course can be beneficial. If you are inexperienced, it is
the best, safest way to begin your life on the water. If you are an experienced boater, it’s always good to sharpen your skills.
Required Equipment
The U.S. Coast Guard requires certain equipment on each boat. In addition, they also set minimum equipment and safety standards.
For more detailed requirement information, obtain “Federal Requirements And Safety Tips For Recreational Boats”, by contacting the
Boating Safety Hotline,
800-368-5647.
Some states and local agencies require equipment that is not required by the U.S. Coast Guard. Your local agency or dealer
can provide specific information regarding these non-standard requirements.
