Engine Basics
It is important that you read the
engine manual carefully and become
familiar with the operation as well as
necessary maintenance on the engine and
propulsion systems. Pay careful attention
to the sections on winterization if you
live in freezing climates. Extensive damage can result if proper winter
storage is not followed. Your Regal dealer has been factory trained on
Regal boat systems. Consult your Regal dealer for further information
regarding technical issues and parts.
AVOID SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH!

PROPULSION OWNER’S MANUALS
BEFORE OPERATING YOUR VESSEL.
Engine Mounts
The engine is set in the boat on a group of metal platforms called
mounts. These engine-hull attached rubber isolation mounts keep the
engine from moving laterally and at right angles to the center-line.
The mounts help reduce the vibration caused by the engine and drive.
Periodically, the mount hardware should be checked for tightness.
