and fly into the boat.
• The boat could move suddenly in a new direction. Such a
sharp change in direction can cause occupants to be thrown
out of their seats or out of the boat.
• A rapid reduction in speed. This will cause occupants to be
thrown forward, or even out of the boat.
• Impact damage to the sterndrive and/or boat.

WARNING
Operating a boat or engine with impact damage can result in
product damage, serious injury, or death. If the vessel
experiences any form of impact, have an authorized Mercury
Marine dealer inspect and repair the vessel or power package.
After striking a submerged object, stop the engine as soon as
possible and inspect it for any broken or loose parts. If damage is
present or suspected, the sterndrive should be taken to an
authorized dealer for a thorough inspection and necessary repair.
The boat should also be checked for any hull fractures, transom
fractures, or water leaks.
Operating a damaged sterndrive could cause additional damage
to other parts of the sterndrive, or could affect control of the boat.
If continued running is necessary, do so at greatly reduced speeds.
Trailering Boat
The boat can be trailered with the drive unit in up or down position.
Adequate road clearance is required between road and gear
housing skeg when trailering with the drive unit in down position.
If adequate road clearance is a problem, place drive unit in full up
position.
Safe Boating Suggestions
Familiarize yourself with local, state and federal boating
regulations and restrictions.
Use flotation devices. Have an approved personal flotation device
of suitable size for each person aboard (it is the law).
