You must always make sure the helm is properly manned

and is never left unattended while trolling. If your boat is

equipped with a tower, caution and good common sense

must be exercised whenever someone is in the tower. Most

towers are designed for two average-sized people. Remem-

ber, weight in the tower raises the boat’s center of gravity

and the boat’s motion is greatly exaggerated for the people

in a tower.

If you are fishing in an area that is crowded with other fishing

boats, it may be difficult to follow the rules of the road. This

situation can become especially difficult when most boats

are trolling. Being courteous and exercising good common

sense is essential. Avoid trying to assert your right of way

and concentrate on staying clear and preventing tangled

or cut lines and other unpleasant encounters with other

boats. Also keep in mind that fishing line wrapped around

a propeller shaft can damage seals in the engine lower unit.

12.11 Man Overboard

If someone falls overboard, you must be prepared to react

quickly, particularly when you are offshore. The following

procedures will help you in recovering a person that has fallen

overboard.

• Immediately stop the boat and sound a man overboard

alarm and have all passengers point to the person in the

water.

• Circle around quickly and throw a cushion or life jacket

to the person, if possible, and another to use as a marker.

• Keep the person on the driver side of the boat so you

can keep him in sight at all times.

• Make sure to approach the person from the downwind

side and maneuver the boat so the propeller is well clear

of the person in the water.

• Turn off the engines when the person is alongside and

use a ring buoy or a boat cushion with a line attached,

a paddle or boathook to assist him to the boat. Make

sure you don’t hit him with the ring buoy or the boat.

• Pull the person to the boat and assist him on board.

• Check the person for injuries and administer first aid if

necessary. If the injuries are serious, call for help. Refer

to the Safety Equipment chapter for more information on

first aid and requesting emergency medical assistance.

MOVING PROPELLERS ARE DANGEROUS.

THEY CAN CAUSE DEATH, LOSS OF LIMBS,

OR OTHER SEVERE INJURY. DO NOT USE THE

SWIM PLATFORM OR SWIM LADDER WHILE THE

ENGINES ARE RUNNING. STOP THE ENGINES

IF DIVERS OR SWIMMERS ARE ATTEMPTING

TO BOARD. ALWAYS PROPERLY STORE THE

LADDER BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINES.

12.12 Trash Disposal

The discharge of plastic trash or trash mixed with plastic

is illegal anywhere in the marine environment. U.S. Coast

Guard regulations also restrict the dumping of other forms

of garbage. Regional, State, and local restrictions on garbage

discharges also may apply.

Responsible boaters store refuse in bags and dispose of it

properly on shore. You should make sure your passengers

are aware of the local waste laws and the trash management

procedure on your boat. Refer to the placard mounted on

your boat for more specific information regarding solid

waste disposal.

Federal law requires that vessels of 26 feet or longer must

display in a prominent location, a durable placard at least

4 by 9 inches notifying the crew and passengers of the

discharge restrictions (Marpol Treaty). It is the boat owner’s

responsibility to make sure this placard remains mounted

and legible in accordance with the law.

12.13 Trailering Your Boat

If you trailer your boat, make sure that your tow vehicle is

capable of towing the weight of the trailer, boat and equipment

and the weight of the passengers and equipment inside the

vehicle. This may require that the tow vehicle be specially

equipped with a larger engine, transmission, brakes and trailer

tow package.

The boat trailer is an important part of your boating package.

The trailer should be matched to your boat’s weight and hull.

Using a trailer with a capacity too low will be unsafe on the

road and cause abnormal wear. A trailer with a capacity too

high, can damage the boat. Contact your trailer dealer to

evaluate your towing vehicle and hitch, and to make sure

you have the correct trailer for your boat.
