Launching And Boat Operation Care
!
CAUTION
During launching from a trailer, if the unloading ramp is steep
or the trailer bed must be tilted, the boat may enter the water rap-
idly and at a steep angle. This may force water through the ex-
haust system into the cylinders. The more weight on the tran-
som, the more likely this is to occur.
Slowing down rapidly or stopping suddenly may cause a follow-
ing wave to “swamp” the transom. In this instance, water may
enter the cylinders through the exhaust system.
When backing up rapidly, the same situation may occur as
stated in the preceding paragraph.
In any of these situations, water entering the engine could cause se-
vere damage to internal parts. Refer to “Attention Required After
Submersion”.
