FOREWORD
Congratulations on choosing a Yamarin 42 Side Console! We are delighted to welcome you as a
Yamarin owner.
This manual will familiarise you with the features of your new boat and help with its care and
maintenance. It has been written to help you learn to handle your boat safely and avoid any
problems. Make sure that you have received manuals for all equipment fitted on your boat.
Supplement this manual with the specifications and manuals of equipment you purchase later for
your boat. Space has been left for your own notes at the end of the manual. Please read this
manual carefully and familiarise yourself with the craft before using it.
If this is your first craft, or you are changing to a type of craft you are not familiar with, for your
own comfort and safety, please ensure that you obtain sufficient handling and operating
experience before "assuming command" of the craft. Only then will you be ready to accept
responsibility as the "captain" of your boat. Your dealer or national sailing association or yacht
club will be happy to advise you of local boating schools or competent instructors.
Before setting out, please make sure that the design category of your boat can cope with the
forecast wind and wave conditions, and that you and your crew are able to control your boat in
those conditions.
This user manual is not a detailed maintenance or trouble shooting guide. In case of difficulty
please contact the dealer. Always use qualified and competent people for the maintenance, repair
and modification of the boat. Modifications that may affect the safety characteristics of the craft
must be assessed, executed and documented by competent people. The manufacturer cannot be
held responsible for modifications he has not approved.
Operating a boat requires a licence or authorisation in some countries. Boating may also be subject
to special regulations.
Always keep your boat in good condition, and take into account possible wear due to age and hard
use or misuse. Any craft – no matter how strong it may be, can be severely damaged if not used
properly. Using a boat inappropriately is not safe boating practice. Always adjust the speed and
direction of the craft to sea conditions.
You should keep appropriate safety equipment on board according to the boat's type, weather
conditions and other factors. Having safety equipment on board is mandatory in some countries.
The boat's crew should be familiar with the use of all safety equipment, and with manoeuvring in
emergencies (rescuing persons who have fallen overboard, towing etc.). Boating clubs regularly
organise rescue training.
All persons on board should use an appropriate buoyancy aid (life jacket/personal flotation
device). Please note that, in some countries, the use of a buoyancy aid compliant with national
regulations is required under law at all times while on board.
