SAFETY AFLOAT
The cause of many boating accidents is often the operator’s failure to follow basic safety rules or written precautions. Many
accidents can be avoided if an operator is completely familiar with the boat, its operation, and can recognize potentially
hazardous situations before an accident occurs.
Common risks associated with open power boat operations include:
•
Falls over board;
•
Falls onboard;
•
Fire;
•
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning;
•
Propeller Injury
Failure to comply with safety-related information and instructions may result in serious injury or death to you
and/or others. Always use common sense when operating the boat or participating in any activities associated with
the boat, including, but not limited to, periods of time when the boat engine is shut down and the boat is not in
operation.
• Improper operation of a boat is extremely dangerous! Operators must read and understand all operating manuals supplied with the boat before
operation.
• On-board equipment must always conform to the governing federal, state, and local regulations.
• Always attach the engine emergency safety shut-off lanyard to a part of your clothing (such as a belt loop) when operating the boat.
Never override or modify the engine emergency safety shut-off switch in any way.
On April 1, 2021 a new federal law went into effect that requires the operator of a boat with an installed Engine Cut-
Off Switch (ECOS) to use the ECOS link. The link is usually a coiled bungee cord lanyard clipped onto the operator's
person, Personal Floatation Device (PFD) or clothing and the other end attached to the cut-off switch. The law
applies on all "Navigable Waters of the US".
