BEFORE YOU SET OFF
Familiarise yourself with this owner’s manual.
Always check at least the following items before leaving:

Weather conditions and forecast
Take the wind, waves and visibility into account. Are the design category, size and
equipment of your boat, as well as the skills of the skipper and crew adequate for the
water area you are aiming for? During use, hull windows and other hatches must be
battened down to prevent water incursion

Loading and stability
Do not overload the craft and distribute loads appropriately. To avoid impairment of the
craft’s stability, do not place heavy items high up. Please consider that the stability of the
boat is reduced if people stand up when on-board during use.

Passengers
Ensure that there is Personal Flotation Device or Lifejackets for all people on-board.
Agree crew tasks before setting off.

Fuel and fuel system
Make sure that the boat has enough fuel. Keep in mind that rough conditions at sea impact
on fuel consumption and that it can increase by more than 30% when compared to calm
conditions. As a rule of thumb you should aim for there being at least 20% left in the tank
when arriving at your destination. Regularly check the fuel filter to ensure that there is no
water in the moisture trap located under the fuel filter itself. The fuel filter should be
changed 1-2 times per year depending on engine hours and quality of fuel.

Engine and manoeuvring equipment
Check the function and condition of steering, batteries and remote control and carry out
routine checks according to the engine manual

Boat’s seaworthiness
Check the boat’s seaworthiness: no fuel or water leaks are permitted, safety equipment
must be available on-board etc. Check that there is no water in the bilge!

Fastening of equipment
Check that all equipment and heavy items are positioned so that they are held in place
during travel at sea and high winds. Please note that the seat cushions may fly over board
if they are not fixed properly with press studs.

Nautical charts
If you are not navigating in familiar waters, ensure you have nautical charts on-board that
cover a large enough area. If your boat is equipped with a chart plotter, familiarise
yourself with it before setting off. Ensure that the plotter charts are of the latest edition

Leaving the berth
Agree with the crew who will release each mooring line, etc. Be careful not to let mooring
lines or the anchoring line to tangle in the propeller during manoeuvring.

Obligatory equipment
What is considered obligatory equipment varies from country to country. Find out what is
required for your boat.
You will find additional instructions concerning the engine in a separate manual
