5.10 MANOEUVRING OF THE BOAT
Manoeuvring of a boat, designed for category B
Important factors to understand and study are: the boat, the cargo weight and
placement, position of the Z drive, use of the trim flaps. Spend time on practicing this.
Start immediately to practice how to manoeuvre the boat with and without the bow
propeller. We recommend to practice towards a buoy or another fixed point. Do not
underestimate the impact of side winds.
Be advised, when the boat is exceeding hull speed of 7,5kt and approaching planning
speed of 17kt on flat water, the boat is consuming much fuel and creating unwanted
waves for others. Minor cavitation can occur in this area of speed and the engine is
working on overload. We strongly advice to sail in slow (waterline speed) or planning
speed, when you drive any planning boat.
❖ MANOEUVRING IN ROUGH SEAS
Never enter rough sea unless you are absolutely positive that the boat and
crew/passengers can handle it.
➢ Be well prepared.
➢ Fasten loose equipment and luggage.
➢ Have the emergency equipment ready.
➢ Close all hatches and port lights.
➢ Close all sliding doors.
WARNING:
Do not let children stay on open deck when sailing on rough seas. The anti-skid
coating can be slippery when wet.
