DRIVING YOUR SKEETER BOAT
Getting To Know Your Boat
Operating your Skeeter boat requires skills acquired through practice over a period of time. Take the time to
learn the basic techniques well before attempting more difficult maneuvers.
Boating with your new Skeeter boat can be a very enjoyable activity, providing you with hours of pleasure. But it
is essential to familiarize yourself with the operation of the Skeeter boat to achieve the skill necessary to enjoy
boating safely. Before operating this Skeeter boat, read this Owner’s Manual, the Owner’s Manual for your
outboard motor, all Warning and Caution labels on the boat and motor, as well as all other informational material
supplied with your boat.
Boating With Passengers
When one or more passengers are on board, the boat may handle differently, so operating it requires a higher
degree of skill.
Passengers should sit so the weight in the boat is balanced from side-to-side and bow-to-stern as much as
possible. If passenger seats are provided on your boat in front of the helm, be sure the operator’s view ahead is
not obstructed when they are used.
