17. Do the final fitting and adjustments.
Sit in the boat on dry land and adjust the foot pegs and oar lock placement to your leg length and preference.
Float your pontoon boat in shallow water. Push off, get seated comfortably, place your feet on the foot pegs and check to
see if you are level in the water. (This is easier with another person on shore).
WARNING - The goal is to find your balance point. When you are floating in the boat
it should be level in the water.
WARNING - Placing heavy cargo in the wire cargo deck may necessitate
moving the seat forward.
WARNING - If you need to adjust the seat or foot pegs bring the boat
back to shore and make the needed adjustments.
WARNING - DO NOT STAND UP IN YOUR BOAT WHILE ON THE WATER.
YOU COULD LOOSE YOUR BALANCE AND FALL OVERBOARD.
Practice going forward and backward a bit to get comfortable. Then catch some fish and enjoy your boat!
