boat and passenger load.

stated on the USCG Maximum Capacities Plate.
• Verifying that the emergency stop switch is in proper
operating condition.
• Ensuring that all passengers are properly and securely seated
in appropriate seating locations.
• Following safe operating practices and the “Rules of the
Road.”
• Understanding proper maintenance and knowledge of the
boat’s operating systems.
• Providing safety training for the passengers.
• Having at least one other passenger who is capable of
handling the boat in an emergency.
• Maintaining a proper lookout by sight and hearing.
• Avoiding use of alcohol and other drugs.
• Providing assistance to other boaters.
Registration/Documentation
The USCG requires that all power boats operated on the navigable
waters of the U.S. must be registered in the state of main use; also,
many states require registration in that state whenever boating on
waters within their state boundary. Contact your state boating
authorities (and neighboring states) for registration information
on boats and trailers. Your Nautique dealer can supply you with the
appropriate forms.
