Anchor and Windlass
 Somemodelsareequippedwithanchors,andtherewillbeadesig-

theanchorstowedwhenitisnotinuse.Insomemodels,theanchor
isusedinconcertwithawindlass,orwinch,particularlyininstances
wheretheboatisexpectedtobeusedindeeperwater.Thewindlass
isapoweredwinchtoraisetheanchorandline.
Improperly stored anchors and/or anchor line that
has been improperly re-wound through the windlass
system, may create a hazardous situation. People on-
board can trip on improperly stored materials, which
can result in injury. Improperly stored materials can
also move too freely during boat operation and make
contact with individuals, again causing injury. Properly
store all anchor and lines whether the boat is in opera-
tion or not, unless the anchor and line are in use.

e anchor, sometimes accompanied by a windlass,
has been provided to assist boaters in remaining in a
chosen location. Note that use of the anchor system
co m fo rt an d co n ven i e n ce
will not guarantee a properly anchored boat or that the
boat will remain in a stationary position. Environmen-
tal, bottom conditions, current and tidal conditions
must be taken into consideration when anchoring the
boat. Only properly trained operators should set the
anchor for this system. Establishing a secure anchorage
requires practice. Damage to your boat may result due
to improper anchoring techniques.

When charging, batteries generate small amounts of dan-
gerous hydrogen gas. is gas is highly explosive. Keep
all sparks, flames and smoking well away from the area.
Failure to follow instructions when charging a battery
may cause an electrical charge or even an explosion of the
battery, which could result in death or serious injury.
