retracted, folded into the recess, secured with the

W ARNI NG
MOVING PROPELLERS ARE DANGEROUS. THEY CAN
CAUSE DEATH, LOSS OF LIMBS, OR OTHER SEVERE INJURY.
DO NOT USE THE SWIM PLATFORM OR LADDER WHILE
AN ENGINE IS RUNNING. STOP THE ENGINES IF DIVERS
OR SWIMMERS ARE ATTEMPTING TO BOARD. ALWAYS
PROPERLY STORE THE LADDER BEFORE STARTING THE
ENGINES.
Unassisted Boarding Situations
When using the swim platform ladder in an unas-
sisted boarding situation in deep water, hold the
swim platform and brace your feet against the
transom and hull side for stability. Then open the
ladder hatch, release the draw latch and rotate the
ladder out of the recess to the down position with
your free hand. Hold the side rail of the ladder
for stability, then use your free hand and feet to
extend the ladder. Close the hatch and use the
ladder side rails and hand rail for stability while
boarding. Remember to retract the ladder, fold it
into the recess, secure it with the draw latch and
close the hatch before starting the engine.
Underwater Lights (Optional)
Your boat may be equipped with optional under-
water lights mounted in the transom. They are
activated by a switch in the helm switch panel and
should only be used when the boat is in the water
and the lights are submerged.
Ski Tow Pylon
A ski tow pylon mounted to the hull and deck in
the center of the platform, just aft of the rear
bench seat, is optional equipment.
The tow pylon is designed for pulling one or two
averaged sized skiers or wakeboarders. Always
use high quality tow ropes with attachment loops
when pulling wakeboarders or skiers. The tow rope
should always be attached to the pylon using the
attachment loops and never tied to the pylon or to
any type of metal hook. Tied ski ropes are very
dicult to remove and metal hooks will damage
the ski tow. Additionally, metal hooks can cause
injury to your skiers or damage engine cowlings if
the metal hook breaks under the strain of the tow.
