1.7 Safety rules for riding
The competent authority will tell you if you need to register the craft (licence
plate).
Observe the navigation regulations applicable in the region. You can get the
respective information from the Coast Guard or the water protection police. It
is advisable to consult the local authorities to protect yourself against avoida-
ble difficulties and penalties.
Ride defensively with a safe speed and always keep a necessary safety
distance from other crafts in the water.
Avoid riding directly behind other boats.
Do not splash other PWC riders with water.
Keep a sharp lookout and be careful before making sharp manoeuvres. You
and other boats might get a surprise.
Before making a sharp turn, make sure that there are no watercrafts behind you.
Ride with foresight and take early steps for avoiding collisions.
Don't forget: S4 Standups do not have brakes.
During a ride with the S4 Standup, the safety lanyard must always be tied to
the rider. If you fall into the water, the pull on the line will cause your S4
Standup to stop safely.
