OTHER SAFETY MATTERS
Riders should:
- Be at least sixteen (16) years old or the minimum age required within the jurisdiction in which the
power board is operated. The power board was designed to be operated by adults.
- Wear appropriate safety gear especially a Helmet and Life Vest and safety leash.
- Ensure the power board is in excellent condition and ready to operate in top form. Have sucient
fuel for the outing or gear the outing to the generally expected period of time that fuel will remain,
and be sure that the ignition battery is functional and well-charged to avoid becoming stranded away
from shore.
- Avoid operation during bad weather, including but not limited to, high winds, rain that obscures
vision, warnings of impending threatening weather, high waves, or any weather in which the rider
feels at all uncomfortable.
- Avoid operation in water that is too shallow or is brackish. Because the power board engine is wa-
ter-jet pump propelled, weeds and other ora can foul the engine intake. If it is suspected that fouling
agents or small objects have been brought into the pump/engine system (height of water stream
coming out of engine cooling system nozzle output will get smaller or end completely), immediately
cease operation and perform a typical maintenance operation to clean the system.
- Maintain a speed and operational method that ensures
the rider can avoid collisions with objects (above and below
the waterline), buoys, docks, shorelines and other vessels.
- Know and practice navigational rules and regulations.
- Maintain an unobstructed view at all times, particularly in
the direction the power board is moving.
- Ride singularly on the power board. Multiple people on
one power board can overload it and cause it to sink.
The power board is built with anticipation of one (1) aver-
age-sized person per board.
- Never exceed the highest loading capacity.
- In addition, it is necessary for the rider to maintain line-
of-sight, which means there should never be another per-
son in front of the rider as the outing progresses.
- Not carry aboard any item. The power board requires
the rider to maintain control via the control handle. The
rider should never be distracted from control of the pow-
er board.
- Always keep the magnetic key with kill switch Paracord
around the wrist so that when the rider goes overboard
the engine will be immediately shut down.
REPORTING ACCIDENTS AND INSURANCE
Federal law requires reporting of accidents in which:
- A person dies;
- A person disappears from the vessel in what appears to be a situation that could have resulted in
death or serious injury;
- A person disappears from the vessel in what appears to be a situation that could have resulted in
death or serious injury;
- Damage to vessel and/or property that exceeds the amount stipulated by law. The total may be
lower in some jurisdictions and it is the responsibility of the owner/operator to verify;
- The power board is destroyed.
Any instance in which other vessels or persons appear in distress, power board operators are re-
quired by law to oer assistance unless doing so would result in potential danger to the power board
operator. Good Samaritan protection is provided to anyone who oers good faith assistance.
Even when others operate the power board, the owner is generally responsible for damages or
injuries that may occur. Owners must not allow any Third Party to operate the JetSurf™ without prior
instruction in correct use and operational risks. Owners are strongly encouraged to carry sucient
liability and property insurance to provide in anticipation of potential judgments in those instances.
Theft and on-shore damage are additional reasons to purchase insurance.
REFUSE AND POLLUTION
The U.S. Coast Guard* and/or relevant Authority which applies to the region where the JetSurf™ is
used provides detailed information regarding the disposal or refuse. In general, refuse, even bio-de-
gradable, should be disposed properly on-shore. If the user deduces that there are any substances
that could pollute waters leaking from the board, it should be presented to an authorised JetSurf™
dealer for repair. Pollution laws and regulations are stringent in most areas.
At no time should the power board owner and/or operator alter the engine exhaust system or fuel
system in any fashion. Doing so is both illegal and potentially dangerous.
