• Each boat operator has a responsibility to
ensure the safety of his/her passenger(s) and
of other water users. Please follow all safety
instructions and operate your boat with care.
• Operation of this boat by a person
under 16 years of age or a person with a
disability that impairs vision, reaction time,
judgment or operation of the controls is not
recommended.
• Never operate a boat while under the
influence of drugs or alcohol. They slow
reaction time and impair judgement. Allow
only qualified drivers to operate your boat.
• Remember that sun, wind, fatigue
or illness may impair your judgement and
reaction time.
• At least one passenger should be able
to operate the boat in case the operator is
unexpectedly unable to do so.
• Always use the kill cord when operating
the boat and ensure that all passengers are
familiar with its use.
• Ensure that any operator and all
passengers know how to swim and how to
re-board the boat from the water (Please see
instructions on how to do so on page 18). If
a passenger does not know how to swim,
ensure that passenger wears a lifejacket at
all times and take extra precautions when
boating.
• Be sure you have at least the minimum
required safety equipment, lifejackets and any
additional gear needed for your trip.
• Check that all lifesaving equipment is in
safe operating condition and easily accessible.
Show all passengers where this equipment is
and make sure they know how to use it.
• Keep an eye on the weather. Check the
local weather before departure and be alert
to changing conditions. Beware of offshore
winds and currents.
• Keep enough fuel on board for the
planned trip. Always verify fuel level before use
and during the trip. Apply the principle of
1
/3 of
the fuel to reach your destination,
1
/3 to return,
and keep
1
/3 in reserve. Allow for changes due
to adverse weather or other delays.
• Keep accurate and up-to-date charts
of the boating area on board. Before getting
underway, check water conditions in the
planned boating area.
• Before departure, inform a responsible
person ashore of your plans.
Operators’ and Passengers’ Awareness
Taking part in any water sport requires
increased safety awareness by the
participant and the boat operator.
• If you have never pulled someone
behind your boat before, it is a good idea to
spend a few hours as an observer, working
with and learning from an experienced driver.
It is also important to be aware of the skill and
experience of the person being pulled.
• Always have a second person on board
to observe the person in the water so the
driver can concentrate on operating the boat.
• Both the boat operator and observer
should monitor the location of the towrope
when participating in watersports.
• A slack tow rope can become
entangled with persons or objects in the
boat or in the water, particularly when making
a tight turn or circling and cause serious
personal injury.
