Safety

In emergency situations, it may be necessary to resort to measures 
which are not normally practiced. Always assess the dangers of being 
in harm's way before the protection of equipment.

Keep a sound mind during an emergency and always think safety.

The following precautions are used throughout this manual. 

The “signal words” of DANGERWARNING and CAUTION have 
specific meaning to alert you to relative level of hazard.

Section 1 contains a description of the Skipper’s Kit and information 
about the warranty.

Section 2 contains your yacht specifications such as dimensions and 
capacities. There are also layout diagrams to introduce you to 
floorplans as well as the locations of various components.

Section 3 contains descriptions of all the controls and indicators on 
the dash of the helm.

Section 4 contains principles of operation for the major systems 
onboard the 460 Express Series.
