− Check the engine exhausts. In particular,
• very black smoke generally means dirty filters or unburned fuel due
to improper calibration of injection pumps or injectors.
• very white smoke may mean presence of water in the fuel.
• bluish smoke may mean abnormal oil combustion.
− In case of abnormal vibration, reduce speed and run at slow rpm until
the cause of the vibration is determined. If the vibration is severe, take
the engines out of gear. It may be necessary to check the propeller
condition. It may also be necessary to have a specialist check the
propeller shaft alignment.
− Perform a visual inspection of the bilges periodically.
Be aware of the fuel supply in relation to the distance you plan to cover.
NOTICES

designated seating areas in order to prevent injury due to falls caused
by sudden yacht movements in active wake areas or in the event of
sudden changes in yacht speed or during manoeuvring. No one should
be seated on the spoiler or forward decks when the yacht is navigating.
