BOATING SAFETY
1-5
Using an outboard motor that exceeds the maximum horsepower limit of a boat can:
• Cause loss of boat control.
• Place too much weight at the transom altering the design flotation characteristics of the boat.
• Cause structural damage.
Overpowering a boat can result in serious injury, death or boat damage.
DO NOT overpower or overload your boat.
