OWNER’S MANUAL

FISHING BOATS

3901 St. Lucie Blvd.

Ft. Pierce, Florida 34946

Your Owner’s Manual was written to include

safety instructions to ensure safe operation

and maintenance of your boat. Safety alerts

symbols are used to alert potential personal

injury hazards.

All instructions are viewed from the stern look-

ing toward the bow, with starboard (to your

right) and port (to your left). A glossary of boat-

ing terms is included.

Your boat produces carbon monoxide (CO)

and uses flammable fuel. CO will cause

BRAIN DAMAGE or DEATH. Carbon monox-

ide gas (CO) is colorless, odorless and

extremely dangerous.

Every precaution has been taken by Pursuit

Fishing Boats to reduce the risks associated

with death, possible injury and damage from

fire or explosion. Your own precaution and

good maintenance procedures are necessary

in order to enjoy safe operation of your boat.

!DANGER

Indicates a hazardous situation which, if

not avoided, will result in death or seri-

ous injury.

!WARNING

Indicates a hazardous situation which, if

not avoided, could result in death or

serious injury.

!CAUTION

Indicates a hazardous situation which, if

not avoided, could result in minor or

moderate injury.

!NOTICE

Indicates a potentially hazardous situa-

tion which, if not avoided, may result in

property damage.

!DANGER

Exposure to carbon monoxide will

cause death or serious injury. Avoid

direct and prolonged exposure to CO.

Gasoline and other fuels are extremely

flammable and highly explosive under

certain conditions.

• DO NOT smoke or allow open flame

or sparks nearby when fueling.

• DO NOT block fuel vents.

• DO NOT store fuel in any containers

or compartments which are not des-

ignated for storing fuel.
