This Owner’s Manual has been developed to help ensure an enjoyable experience as you boat, wakeboard and
ski with a fabulous MasterCraft boat. As stated earlier, this information is not all-inclusive. There are many factors
to consider and additional information that you need to research before undertaking any boating activity.
In addition to reading this Owner’s Manual or other related material, and familiarizing yourself with
the proper operation of the MasterCraft boat, you should also always use common sense when boating. For
example, when anchoring the boat, you MUST turn OFF the engine. In most models, exhaust fumes contain-
ing carbon monoxide are emitted from the exhaust flap area of the transom immediately below the swim
platform.
No one should ever be on the swim platform or transom while the engine is operating.
This includes while using the shower option in those models where the engine must run in order
to create hot water. In those instances, showering must never be done on the swim platform or
transom as the carbon monoxide fumes are toxic.
Carbon monoxide is a colorless, tasteless, odorless and poisonous gas that accumulates rapidly
and can cause serious injury or death. Exposure to carbon monoxide can be fatal in a matter of
minutes. Exposure to even low concentrations of carbon monoxide must not be ignored because
the effects of exposure to carbon monoxide can build up and be just as lethal as high concentra-
tions. Carbon monoxide from exhaust pipes of inboard or outboard engines may build up inside
and outside the boat in areas near exhaust vents, particularly during slow-speed operations. STAY
AWAY from these exhaust vent areas, which are located at the stern of the boat, and DO NOT swim
or engage in any watersports or other activities in or near the stern area of the boat, including,
without limitation, the swim platform and the rear sun deck, when the engine is in operation. Under
no circumstances should the owner and/or operator allow persons to hold onto the swim platform
while the engine is operating and the boat is in motion. These activities (sometimes known as “teak
surfing” or “platform dragging,” where the participant holds onto the swim platform and is pulled
through the water, and/or “body surfs” immediately behind the boat) are extremely dangerous,
highly likely to result in death or serious bodily injury, and are a misuse of this product.
All boats have weight limits. Failure to adhere to the posted limits can cause operation instability
and/or the boat to sink. This may result in serious injury or death, as well as significant damage to
the boat, which will not be covered by warranty.
Common Sense Approach
2011 Owners Manual...Common Sense Approach...Page 2-1
Overloading a boat may cause it to become unstable and may potentially result in the boat’s flota-
tion system becoming overwhelmed. Too much weight can sink any boat! Within this Manual and on
a label mounted in each boat, except in the 280 and 265 models, is the weight and maximum occupant
limit for that specific model. Bear
in mind that total weight limits
include additional water ballast,
gear brought onto the boat, ad-
ditional options and all people.
Equally critical is how weight is
distributed throughout the boat.
If too much weight is placed in one
area it can have serious impact on
maintaining control. Items and
people can also shift positions
during operation, potentially
causing a dangerous situation.
Model 280 and 265 are Yacht
Certified and do not display a
listed weight limit on the boat.
See information specific to those
models for guidance.
