Your boat’s mechanical and electrical systems were designed to meet all safety standards in effect at the time it was

built. These standards help insure your safety and the safety of other people, vessels and property.

Read this supplement, the Cruiser & Yacht Owner’s Manual, the engine owner’s manual, and all accessory instruc-

tions for important safety standards and hazard information.

Qualified Maintenance

Failure to maintain your boat’s systems (listed in the warning above) as designed could violate the laws in your juris-

diction and could expose yourself and others to the danger of bodily injury or accidental death.

Follow the maintenance instructions in:

Special Care for Moored Boats

While moored, your boat’s hull bottom will collect marine growth that not only looks bad, but also reduces perfor-

mance, and could damage the gelcoat.

As often as needed for your area, haul your boat out of the water and scrub the hull bottom with a bristle brush and

soap and water.

A wide variety of components used on this vessel contain or emit chemicals known to the State

of California to cause cancer and birth defects and other reproductive harm.

Examples Include:

Engine and generator exhaust

Engine/generator fuel, and other liquids such as coolants and oil, especially used motor oil

Cooking fuels

Cleaners, paints, and substances used for vessel repair

Waste materials that result from wear of vessel components

Lead from battery terminals and from other sources such as ballast or fishing sinkers

To Avoid Harm:

Keep away from engine, generator, and cooking fuel exhaust fumes.

Wash exposed skin thoroughly with soap and water after handling the substances above.

WARNING!

To maintain the safety of your boat, allow ONLY trained personnel to work on, or change in

any way, the:

Steering System

Propulsion System

Engine Control System

Fuel System

Environmental Control

System

Electrical System

Navigation System

CO Monitor(s)

WARNING!

This Owner’s Manual Supplement

The Cruiser & Yacht Owner’s Manual

The engine owner’s manual, and;

All accessory literature.

Applying an epoxy barrier coating to the hull bottom will help prevent gel coat blistering

while your boat is moored.

Cover the barrier coating with several coats of anti-fouling paint.

Many states have environmental standards regulating the chemical content of bottom

paints. Your local dealer can recommend bottom paints approved for use in your state.
