Welcome aboard ZUMA!
We are happy you have chosen Ship Harbor Yacht Charters for your vacation. We are confident
you will enjoy cruising the scenic islands of the Pacific Northwest.
We hope you will enjoy your time on Zuma as much as we have. You will find Zuma is very
maneuverable, even without the bow and stern thrusters, and easy to pilot in close quarters.
You will find that Zuma cruises very economically at around 8-knots but has the power to reach up
to 15 knots if necessary. The open design and large windows will give you 360-degree visibility
and make Zuma feel much larger than she is.
Zuma has a full galley including a microwave and 6-bottle wine cooler.
We trust this manual will help you become familiar with the boat. If you have questions about the
boat or about places to visit, please do not hesitate to ask the Ship Harbor Yacht Charters staff.
