This manual has been compiled to help you operate your craft
with safety and pleasure. It contains details of the craft; typical

Warranty & Construction Standards
Your boat manufacturer may provide a Warranty Statement
describing terms and conditions under which defects in your boat
will be repaired. Familiarize yourself with the warranty and
follow instructions regarding proper operation and maintenance.
Lack of attention to instructions can void the warranty.
Specific Data
You need to know specific data about your boat’s capabilities
and requirements. This type of information is available from the
manufacturer and/or dealer.
Before operating equipment associated with your boat,
particularly the engine, read the owner’s manual accompanying
the equipment.
Registration
Register your boat in the area where it is used most frequently.
Many areas require additional registration when an out-of-area
boat is used within their boundaries. Contact boating authorities
or your marine dealer for registration requirements and forms.
