5.9 Operation
If this is your first boat or a boat type new to you, take someone with experience from a
similar boat with you the first few times.
5.9.1 Controls
You will quickly learn how to control your Yamarin 68 DC, but constantly changing weather
conditions, like wind and waves, will always present new challenges for the driver. The
remote control combines the functions of throttle, forward and reverse gears, and the
adjusting of the engine trim angle. The boat has a hydraulic steering system.
5.9.2 Emergency switch
The emergency switch is a device with one end attached to the switch under the remote
control and the other end to, for instance, your life vest. The emergency switch
automatically switches off the engine when detached from the remote control. It is very
important that the boat comes to a halt in the event that the driver, for whatever reason,
loses his/her balance and is flung from the helm.
NOTE! Never take control of the boat without having attached the
emergency switch to yourself. If you attach it to your arm, do not
steer the boat with that hand, because the lanyard may twist
around the steering wheel.
The engine will not start if the emergency switch is not attached to the switch on the remote
control.
WARNING!
A rotating propeller presents a life-threatening danger to a
swimmer or a person that has fallen overboard. Use an emergency
switch to turn off the engine always when a swimmer or water
skier is about to re-enter the boat from the water.
5.9.3 Gearshift and throttle
The engine is put into gear by pushing the button on the gear/throttle handle upwards with
your fingers, and by pushing or pulling the gear/throttle lever forward or backward
depending on which direction you are planning to set out. When the engine is in gear, you
adjust the boat speed with the same gear/throttle lever.
When the boat is travelling forward slowly, you can use the reversing gear for braking, for
instance, when approaching the quay. Shifting into reverse must not be done if the boat is
travelling at higher speeds, because it damages the engine.
