EMERGENCY
PROCEDURES
TOWING THE SPORT BOAT
➀
Bow eye
The Sport Boat should be towed only if
it becomes inoperative.
The towing rope should be long enough
so that the Sport Boat will not collide
with the towing boat when slowing
down. A good rule of thumb is a tow
rope which is three times the combined
length of the towing boat and the Sport
Boat.
Tow the Sport Boat using the bow eye
only. Tow the boat at a "no wake"
speed.
Do not tow the Sport Boat at speed
fast enough to leave a wake. Severe
engine damage could result
because water can flood the non-
operating engines through the cool-
ing water intake.
The operator of the towing boat
must keep speed to a minimum and
avoid traffic or obstacles which
could be a hazard to the driver on
the Sport Boat.
RUNNING ON ONE ENGINE
If one engine becomes inoperative, the
properly running engine can be used to
return to shore. Operate at a “no wake”
speed to prevent water from flooding
the non-operating engine through the
cooling water intake.
Do not operate the Sport Boat above
a “no wake” speed with just one
engine. Severe engine damage
could result because water can
flood the non-operating engines
through the cooling water intake.
