that is not covered in the owner’s manual. Please study the owner’s manual and

this supplement carefully, paying particular attention to Appendix A: LIMITED

WARRANTY. Keep the owner’s manual and this supplement on your boat in a

secure, yet readily available place.

Dealer Service

Make sure you receive a full explanation of all systems from the selling dealer

before taking delivery of your boat. Your selling dealer is your key to service. If

you experience any problems with your new boat, immediately contact the selling

dealer. If for any reason your selling dealer is unable to help, you can call us direct

on our customer service hotline: 360-435-8957 or send us aFAX: 360-403-4235.

Boating Experience

If this is your first boat or if you are changing to a type of boat you are not familiar

with, for your own comfort and safety, please ensure that you obtain handling and

operating experience before assuming command of the boat.

We strongly recommend that you take one of the boating safety classes offered

by the U.S. Power Squadrons or the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary. For more

course information, including dates and locations of upcoming classes, contact

the organizations directly:

• U.S. Power Squadrons: 1-888-FOR-USPS (1-888-367-8777) or on the Internet

at: http://www.usps.org

• U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary: 1-800-368-5647 or on the Internet at:

http://www.cgaux.org

Outside the United States, your selling dealer, national sailing federation or local

yacht club can advise you of local sea schools or competent instructors.

Structural Limitations

boat balance. The load limit for these platforms is 30 pounds per square foot,

evenly distributed.

times. DO NOT operate your boat while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

WARNING!

Rendezvous Owner’s Manual Supplement

Engines & Accessories Guidelines

Your boat’s engines and accessories were selected to provide optimum performance

and service. Installing different engines or accessories may cause unwanted han-

dling characteristics. Should you choose to install different engines or add accesso-

ries that will affect the boat’s running trim, have an experienced marine technician

perform a safety inspection and handling test before operating your boat again.

Please be advised that certain modifications to your boat can result in cancel-

lation of your limited warranty protection. Always check with your dealer

before making any modifications to your boat.

The engines and accessories installed on your boat come with their own operation

and maintenance manuals. We strongly urge you to read and understand these man-

uals before operating the engines and accessories.

Safety Standards

Your boat’s mechanical and electrical systems were designed to meet safety stan-

dards in effect at the time it was built. Some of these standards were mandated by

law; all of them were designed to insure your safety, and the safety of other people,

vessels and property.

In addition to this supplement, please read the owner’s manual and all

accessory instruction sheets included in your owner’s packet for important

safety standards and hazard information.

Qualified Maintenance

Failure to maintain your boat’s systems as designed could violate the laws in

your jurisdiction and could expose you and other people to the danger of

bodily injury or accidental death. We recommend that you follow all mainte-

nance instructions provided in the owner’s manual, this supplement, the engine

owner’s manual as well as all accessory instruction sheets and manuals included in

your boat’s owner’s packet.

DANGER

PERSONALSAFETYHAZARD! DO NOT allow anyone to ride on

parts of the boat not designated for such use. Sitting on seat

backs, lounging on the forward deck, bow riding, gunwale riding

or occupying the transom platform while underway is especially

hazardous and WILL cause personal injury or death.

DANGER!

To maintain the integrity and safety of your boat, only qualified personnel

should perform maintenance on, or in any way modify: The steering system,

propulsion system, engine control system, fuel system, environmental control

system, electrical system or navigational system.

WARNING!

CHAPTER 1: WELCOME ABOARD! 3

Rendezvous Owner’s Manual Supplement

Special Care For Moored Boats

If moored in saltwater or fresh water, your boat will collect marine growth on its

hull bottom. This will detract from the boat’s beauty, greatly affect its performance

and may damage the gelcoat. There are two methods of slowing marine growth:

• Periodically haul the boat out of the water and scrub the hull bottom with a bristle

brush and a solution of soap and water.

• Paint the hull below the waterline with a good grade of anti-fouling paint.

Hazard Boxes & Symbols

The hazard boxes and symbols shown below are used throughout this supplement

to call attention to potentially dangerous situations which could lead to either per-

sonal injury, death or product damage. We urge you to read all hazard warn-

ings carefully and follow all safety recommendations.

NOTICE

To help seal the hull bottom and reduce the possibility of gelcoat blistering on

moored boats, we recommend the application of an epoxy barrier coating, such

as Interlux, Interprotect 2000E/2001E. The barrier coating should be covered

with several coats of anti-fouling paint.

Many states regulate the chemical content of bottom paints in order to meet

environmental standards. Check with your local dealer about recommended

bottom paints, and about the laws in effect in your area.
