AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE

Congratulations on your purchase of an inflatable boat. We take pride in bringing you a quality product

This manual has been compiled to help you to operate your craft with safety and pleasure. It contains
details of the craft, the equipment supplied or fitted, its systems, and information on its operation and
maintenance. Read it carefully, and familiarize yourself with the craft before using it. Serious personal
injury and death can occur in and around boats. To prevent these tragic accidents, please read,

*If this is your first craft, or you care changing to a type of craft you are not familiar with, for your own
comforts and safety, please ensure that you obtain handling and operating experience before ’assuming
command’ of the craft. Your dealer or national sailing federation or yacht club will be pleased to advise
you of local sea schools or competent instructors.
