Protecting People in the Water
WHILE YOU ARE TROLLING
It is difficult for a person in the water to take quick action to avoid a boat
heading in their direction, even at slow speeds.
21604
Always slow down and exercise extreme caution any time you are boating in an
area where there might be people in the water.
WHILE THE BOAT IS STATIONARY
!
WARNING
A spinning propeller, a moving boat, or any solid device attached to the boat
can cause serious injury or death to swimmers. Stop the trolling motor
immediately whenever anyone in the water is near your boat.
Unplug the trolling motor before allowing people to swim or be in the water near
your boat.
Passenger Safety Message
Whenever the boat is in motion, observe the location of all passengers. A
sudden reduction in boat speed, such as a sharp change of boat direction,
could throw them off the boat.
Safe Boating Suggestions
In order to safely enjoy the waterways, familiarize yourself with local and other
governmental boating regulations and restrictions, and consider the following
suggestions.
Use flotation devices.
It is the law to have an approved personal flotation
device of suitable size for each person aboard and have it readily accessible.
Do not overload your boat.
Most boats are rated and certified for maximum
load (weight) capacities, refer to your boat capacity plate. If in doubt, contact
your dealer or the boat's manufacturer.
Perform safety checks and required maintenance
. Follow a regular
schedule and ensure all repairs are made properly.
Never be under the influence of alcohol or drugs while boating (it is the
law)
. Alcohol or drug use impairs your judgment and greatly reduces your
ability to react quickly.
