ENERAL
When engaged in water sports, be safe and
courteous to others sharing the water:
• Be considerate to fishermen.
• Do not water ski in congested areas.
• Keep the boat and skier away from navigation
markers.
• Stay well clear of other boats and skiers.
• Never drive the boat directly behind a water
skier. At 22 knots (25 m.p.h.), it takes only 5
seconds to overtake a fallen skier who was 60
meters (200 feet) in front.
• Keep a downed skier in sight and on the
operator’s side of the boat when approaching
the skier. Never back up to anyone in the water.
• Learn the signals to communicate with a skier.
The skier is to control the boat through hand
signals (Fig. 1.10.1).
Turn – Arm raised, circle with index finger
extended.
Skier in Water – Extend one ski vertically out
of water.
