12.4 Operating Your Boat
After Starting the Engines:
• Check the engine gauges. Make sure they are
reading normally.
• Visibly check the engines to be sure there are no
apparent water, fuel or oil leaks.
• Check the operation of the engine cooling systems
by inspecting the transom exhaust ports for water
flow.
• Check the steering and engine controls for proper
operation.
• Make sure all lines, cables, anchors, etc. for securing
a boat are on board and in good condition. All lines
should be coiled, secured and off the decks when
underway.
• Have a safe cruise and enjoy yourself.
Remember:
When you operate a boat, you accept the responsibility
for the boat, for the safety of passengers and for others
out enjoying the water.
• Alcohol and any drugs can severely reduce your
reaction time and affect your better judgment.
• Alcohol severely reduces the ability to react to
several different signals at once.
• Alcohol makes it difficult to correctly judge speed
and distance, or track moving objects.
• Alcohol reduces night vision, and the ability to
distinguish red from green.
• Make sure one other person on the boat is
instructed in the operation of the boat.
• Make sure the boat is operated in compliance with
all state and local laws governing the use of a boat.
• Always operate the blowers when operating the boat
below cruising speed or when the generator is
running to help cool the engine compartment.
• Avoid sea conditions that are beyond the skill and
experience of you and your crew. Learn to
understand weather patterns and indications for
change. You should monitor NOAA weather
broadcasts before leaving port and periodically while
boating. If the weather deteriorates or a storm
approaches, seek shelter in a safe harbor.
• Use caution during periods of reduced visibility due
to weather or operation conditions. Reduce speed
and designate a passenger to be a lookout for other
boats, obstacles and navigational markers until you
reach port or conditions improve.
