Qualified Maintenance

Failure to maintain your boat’s systems (listed in the warning above) as designed could violate the laws in your juris-

diction and could expose yourself and others to the danger of bodily injury or accidental death.

Follow the maintenance instructions in:

Special Care for Moored Boats

Whether moored in saltwater or freshwater, your boat will collect marine growth on its hull bottom.

This will detract from your boat’s beauty, greatly affect its performance, and may damage the gel coat.

Periodically haul your boat out of the water and scrub the hull bottom with a bristle brush and a solution of soap

and water.

To maintain the safety of your boat, allow ONLY trained personnel to work on, or change, in

any way, the:

Steering system

Propulsion system

Engine control system

Fuel system

Environmental control system

Electrical system

Navigation system

WARNING!

This Owner’s Manual Supplement

The Sport Boat Owner’s Manual

The engine owner’s manual, and;

All accessory literature.

Applying an epoxy barrier coating to the hull bottom will help prevent gel coat blistering

while your boat is moored.

Cover the barrier coating with several coats of anti-fouling paint.

paints. Your local dealer can recommend bottom paints approved for use in your state.
