5.5.2 Stability and buoyancy
Please note that the boat's stability is reduced by any weight added high up on the boat. Any change in the
distribution of weight on board may significantly affect the stability, trim andperformance of your craft. Please
remember that large breaking waves always present a serious danger to stability.
The amount of water in the bilge must be kept as low as possible.
The boat's stability may be impaired during towing, or when passengers are lifting heavy items.
The boat will carry its passengers also when filled with water.
5.6 Avoiding the risk of fire or explosion
5.6.1 Refuelling
Shut off the engine and extinguish any cigarettes before starting to refuel. During refuelling do not use switches or
appliances that can cause a spark.
Do not stow any loose items under the seat that, if moved, could prevent fuel flow to the engine. This is particularly
important for items that may press against hoses or the fuel filter.
Check annually that the fuel hoses are not worn, especially at lead-ins.
Please note that depending on the trim of the boat or the boat's heeling angle, it might not be possible to use the
full capacity of the tank.
WARNING! Gasified fuel is highly explosive. Observe these instructions and the utmost caution during refuelling.
The smell of fuel always means that there is gasified fuel on your boat
Remember:
Never make changes to any of the boat’s systems (especially the electricity or the
fuel systems) or allow an
unqualified person to make changes to any of the boat’s
systems.
Never smoke while handling petrol or gas.
NOTE! Always keep the bilge clean and regularly check for possible fuel leaks.
