SAFE Boating means:

• Knowing the limitations of your boat

• Following the “RULES of the ROAD”

• Keeping a sharp lookout for people and objects

in the water.

• Not boating in water or weather conditions that

are beyond the boat’s and operator’s capability.

• Never operating the boat while under the

inﬂ uence of drugs or alcohol.

• Being aware of your passengers safety at all

times.

• Reducing speed when there is limited visibility,

rough water, people in the water nearby , boats

or structures.

In Addition:

• Maintain your boat and its safety and other

systems as recommended in this manual.

• Have the boat inspected by a qualiﬁ ed

mechanic or dealer, at least annually.

• Ensure that the Coast Guard required safety

equipment is on board and functioning.

Boating in beautiful weather and calm water

conditions can be a wonderful experience. Boating

however requires considerably greater skills than

operating a land vehicle. Taking a boating course

is the best way to prepare for a safe and enjoyable

experience on the water.

• Take a Coast Guard, U.S. Power Squadron or

equivalent boating safety course. (Call

the Boat/U.S. Foundation at 1-800 336-2628

for information on available courses, or go to:

“www.boatus.com/foundation” on the internet.)

• Get hands-on training on how to operate your

boat properly.

As a boat owner or operator, YOU are responsible

for your safety and the safety of your passengers

and other boaters.

General Considerations

• Know how your boat handles under different

conditions. Recognize your limitations and the

boat’s limitations. Modify speed in keeping

with weather, sea and trafﬁ c conditions.

• Instruct passengers on location and use of

safety equipment and procedures.

• Instruct passengers on the fundamentals of

operating your boat in case you are unable to

do so.

• You are responsible for passenger’s actions. If

they place themselves or the boat in danger,

immediately correct them.

• Remember the “Rule of Thirds”: one third

total fuel usage for the trip out; one third total

fuel sage while out; one third total fuel usage

for the return trip.

Maintain Control

High performance boats require intimate knowledge

of their handling characteristics for safe high speed

operation.

• Learn the effects of trim, steering and

throttle changes at gradually increasing levels

of speed.

• Approach full throttle while adjusting trim for

safe handling of the vessel.

On the water there are no marked trafﬁ c lanes, no

trafﬁ c signs or lights, and boats have no turn signals.

The boat operator must keep her or his attention

focused not only on what’s ahead but what’s on the

left, right and behind the boat.

The operator must always be alert to approaching

boats (from the rear, right and left sides, as well

as those ahead). There can be people in the water,

partially submerged debris, and other navigational

hazards such as rocks, sand bars or dangerous

currents, to name a few.

Your passengers are relying on you to operate and

maneuver the boat safely so that they are not in

danger of going overboard. If you turn too quickly,

Boarding

• Board only one person at a time.

• Never jump into boat.Step or climb into

cockpit.

• Load gear after you are aboard. Carrying

gear while boarding can cause you to lose

balance.

• Distribute weight evenly.

• Instruct passengers where to sit during

on-plane operation to reduce the

possibility of falling overboard during high

speed maneuvers.

• If gear is not immediately needed, stow it in

secure areas.

• Safety gear must be immediately

accessible at all times.

The detrimental effects of alcohol and drugs are

increased by wind, waves and sun, and will decrease

your response time and ability to act in critical

situations. Give special attention to the effects of

alcohol and drugs while boating. No other single

factor causes as many marine accidents and deaths.

Death or serious injury and damage to personal and

private property can result from being impaired while

operating a boat.

Impaired Operation

CONTROL HAZARD-Federal laws prohibit

operating a boat while under the inﬂ uence of

alcohol or drugs. These laws are vigorously

enforced.

!

WARNING

increase or decrease speed abruptly, your passengers

are at risk of being thrown overboard or thrown about

the boat.

When visibility becomes impaired because of

weather, time of day or high bow angle you must

slow down so that you have sufﬁ cient time to react

if an emergency occurs. Nearby boats face similar

risks in avoiding a collision with you.

Section 1• Safety

R

STABILITY HAZARD

• Load boat properly. The

manufacturer’s load rating is the

maximum allowed under normal

conditions. Adjust downward if

weather, water or other conditions

are adverse.

• Allow passengers to ride only in areas

that do not pose a hazard to

themselves or the boat.

DO NOT allow passengers to ride on

the bow of a closed bow boat.

DO NOT allow several passengers to

ride in the bow of a small open-bow

boat, causing the boat to “plow” into

the water.

DO NOT allow passengers to ride on

the stern cushion or gunwales.

DO NOT overload the stern.

• Observe manufacturer’s

recommended on-plane seating

locations.

• Passengers should remain seated

while boat is moving.

PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD-Stay alert. Use of

drugs, alcohol, or other substances which impair

judgement poses a serious threat to yourself

and others. The boat operator is responsible for

the behavior of passengers.

DROWNING HAZARD-Boats must carry one

wearable personal ﬂ otation device (PFD) for

every passenger on board. Boats must have at

least one throwable life preserver.

SLIPPING HAZARD-Wet decks are slippery.

Wear proper footwear and use extreme caution

on wet surfaces.

!

WARNING

Death or serious injury can result if you fail to

observe these safety rules:

• Anyone who controls the boat should

have taken a boating safety course and

have trained in the proper operation of

the boat.

• Always operate the boat at speeds that

will not put people or property in

danger.

• Be constantly aware of conditions in

all directions when underway and

before turning.

• Reduce speed, use a lookout to

identify possible hazards or difﬁ culties,

and turn on navigation lights when:

- visibility is impaired;

- in rough water; and

- in congested waterways.

• Watch your wake. It can capsize a

small boat or damage moored boats or

other property. You are responsible for

damage caused by your wake.

!

WARNING

NEVER operate a boat at a speed at which you

do not feel in control.

!

WARNING

A qualiﬁ ed operator must be in control of the

boat at all times. Do not operate the boat while

under the inﬂ uence of alcohol or drugs. never

operate your boat at speeds which exceed

the operator’s ability to react if an emergency

develops. At night, turn on the appropriate

navigation lights and cruise at a reduced speed

that will allow you plenty of time to avoid

dangerous situations.
