their excellent boating and safety classes and seasonal boat inspections.

Operating a boat with an engine of
horsepower in excess of that specified
on the boat’s capacity plate can result in loss of control over the boat’s
operation and could lead to an accident resulting in injury or death of
the boat’s occupants.
Imprudent operation of the boat, with or
without the use of PFDs and an
approved engine emergency stop switch, can lead to property
damage, injury or death of the boat operator or passenger(s), or other,
whether within the boat or outside the boat.
WARNING
WARNING
The boat operator should insure that the
lanyard connection to the emergency
stop switch is of ample length to insure that the inadvertent activation
of the switch is not likely. Accidental triggering of the emergency stop
switch could result in loss of engine power at inopportune times, such
as while docking or in heavy seas, strong currents or high winds and
could lead to an accident resulting in injury or death.
WARNING
Do not exceed the maximum weight and
persons capacity found on the U.S.
Coast Guard capacity information plate located on your boat.
Overloading severely affects the stability and handling of your boat and
could lead to an accident causing injury or death.
