WELCOME ABOARD

Madam, Sir,

You have just taken delivery of your new JEANNEAU boat and we thank you for the

confidence you have shown us in ordering a vessel of our brand. The whole JEANNEAU

team welcomes you aboard.

A JEANNEAU is made to last, in order to bring you all the pleasure you expect from a

vessel over a period of many years. Each boat is subject to the utmost attention to detail

from the design stage right through to launching.

This manual is meant to help you to enjoy your boat comfortably and safely. It includes the

boat specifications, the equipment provided or installed, the systems and tips on her

operation and maintenance. Some of the equipment described in this manual may be

optional.

Your JEANNEAU dealer will be able to help and advise you in the use and maintenance

of your boat.

Read this user's guide/owner's manual carefully and get to know your boat before using it.

The better you know your vessel the more pleasure you will get from being at the helm.

The sea is a source for learning. Caution based on a knowledge of one's own limits and

those of the boat is the pre-requisite for an accomplished sailor.

Even when your boat has been adapted for them, the sea and wind conditions

corresponding to the design categories A, B, C and D may vary, ranging from severe

conditions to strong storms subject to the risks of exceptional waves and gusts of wind, this

meaning they are dangerous conditions in which only an experienced, fit and well trained

crew manoeuvring a well maintained boat can sail in a satisfactory manner.

This user's guide/owner's manual is not a course in safety at sea or about sailing sense. If

this is your first boat or if you change to a new type of boat which you are not used to, get

some training in boat control and sailing to ensure your safety and comfort. Your dealer,

your international sailing association or your yacht club will be very happy to recommend

local sailing schools or professional instructors.

Make sure the sea and wind conditions will correspond to the category of your boat and

you and your crew are able to handle the boat in these conditions.

Always listen to the weather forecast before you put out to sea.

Keep this user's guide/owner's manual in a safe place and hand it over to the new owner

if you sell your boat.

You are advised to keep all the instructions and manuals provided by the boat

equipment manufacturers (accessories...) in the same place as this manual.

INTRODUCTION

THE USERS OF THE BOAT ARE INFORMED OF THE FOLLOWING:

This user guide/owner's manual is not a maintenance or repair guide. In case of

difficulty do not hesitate to call on the services of your concessionaire JEANNEAU.

Any alterations which may affect the safety specifications of the boat must be

assessed, carried out and recorded by persons qualified to do so. Any change in the

distribution of the vessel's mass (adding a radar, altering the mast, changing an engine,

etc) may affect the stability, trim and performance of your boat.

The SPBI shipyards may not be held responsible for any alterations which they have not

approved.

The complete crew must be equipped appropriately.

In numerous countries, a licence, an authorization or a training course is requested.

Make sure you have this legal authorization before you use your boat.

Adapt the use of your boat to her condition that wears out with time and use.

Any boat, however solid she may be, may be severely damaged if badly used. This is

not compatible with safe navigation. Always adapt the speed and direction of your boat to

the conditions of the sea.

The boat shall not be loaded more with than the maximum load recommended by the

builder, in particular the total weight of the food supplies, of the different equipment that are

not supplied by the builder and of the persons on board.

The weight of the boat shall be properly distributed.

The stability is reduced when you add weight in the upper parts.

In case of heavy weather, the hatches, lockers and doors shall be closed in order to

minimize the risk of water coming in.

Breaking waves are a serious threat to stability.

The water in the bilge shall be kept at its minimum.

The stability may be reduced when you tow a boat or when you lift heavy weights with

the davits or the boom.

If your boat is equipped with a liferaft, carefully read the instructions. The boat must

have on board all the proper safety equipment (lifejackets, buoys, harness, flares, liferafts,

etc.) depending on the type of vessel, its certification, the country, the weather conditions

encountered, etc.

The crew must be familiar with the use of all the safety equipment and the emergency

safety procedures (MOB, towing etc.). Sailing schools organise regular training sessions.

2/102

Anyone on the deck shall wear a life jacket or a buoyancy aid.

The safety regulations as defined by the sailing code and enforced by the ’’COLREG’’

should be observed.

NAME PLATE:

Some of the data is shown on the manufacturer's plate fixed to the boat. The explanation

of the data is given in the appropriate chapters of this manual.

IDENTIFICATION OF VESSEL:

The vessel's identification is found on the builder's certificate delivered with the boat and is

engraved on the starboard aft side.

So as to be able to continuously improve their product the SPBI shipyards reserve the right

to make any alterations in design, layout or equipment which they judge necessary.

That is the reason why the specifications and information given are not contractual, they

may be modified without prior notice or up dates.

This owner's manual is designed in accordance with the ISO 10240 standard

requirements, it has a general purpose and it may sometimes list some equipment or

accessories or deal with some points or questions that are not relevant to your own boat.

The different warnings used throughout this guide are broken down as follows.
