Passenger Safety Message - Pontoon Boats And
Deck Boats
Whenever the boat is in motion, observe the location of all
passengers. Do not allow any passengers to stand or use seats
other than those designated for traveling faster than idle speed. A
sudden reduction in boat speed, such as plunging into a large wave
or wake, a sudden throttle reduction, or a sharp change of boat
direction, could throw them over the front of the boat. Falling over
the front of the boat between the two pontoons will position them
to be run over by the outboard.
BOATS HAVING AN OPEN FRONT DECK
No one should ever be on the deck in front of the fence while the
boat is in motion. Keep all passengers behind the front fence or
enclosure.
Persons on the front deck could easily be thrown overboard or
persons dangling their feet over the front edge could get their legs
caught by a wave and pulled into the water.

WARNING
Avoid serious injury or death from falling over the front end of a
pontoon or deck boat and being run over. Stay back from the
front end of the deck and remain seated while the boat is in
motion.
BOATS WITH FRONT MOUNTED, RAISED PEDESTAL
FISHING SEATS
Elevated fishing seats are not intended for use when the boat is
traveling faster than idle or trolling speed. Sit only in seats
designated for traveling at faster speeds.
