Discharge of Oil or Hazardous Substances
The Federal Water Pollution Control Act prohibits the discharge of oil or hazardous
substances, which may be harmful, into or upon U.S. navigable waters. Vessels 26 feet in
length or over must display a placard at least 5” x 8”. The placard should state the following:
Disposal of Plastics or Garbage
The MARPOL ANNEX V is the Act to prevent pollution from ships and other vessels.
Federal regulations prohibit the discharge of plastic garbage anywhere in the marine
environment. Plastic includes, but is not limited to: synthetic fishing nets, ropes, lines, straws,
six pack holders, styrofoam cups and lids, bottles, buckets and plastic bags. These regulations
also restrict the disposal of other types of garbage within specified boundaries from shore.
Any vessel 26 feet and over must display the placard below or a similar version which details
the regulations. The placard must be at least 4” x 9” and should be available from your dealer.

RAILERING
The adjustment and balance of your boat on the trailer determines how easily your boat may
be transported. The tongue weight on the hitch ball should be 5-10% of the total weight of your
boat, motor and trailer. Tail-heavy loads cause swaying while trailering. The rollers and/or
bunkers of your trailer should be adjusted so that the weight is distributed evenly across the stern
and forward throughout the keel sections. Your dealer can help adjust your trailer properly.
