Stopping boat
EWM01511
Do not use the reverse function to slow
down or stop the boat as it could cause
you to lose control, be ejected, or im-
pact the steering wheel or other parts of
the boat. This could increase the risk of
serious injury. It could also damage the
shift mechanism.
Do not shift into reverse while traveling
at planing speeds. Loss of control, boat
swamping, or damage to the boat could
occur.
The boat is not equipped with a separate
braking system. Water resistance stops it af-
ter the throttle is closed and the engine re-
turns to idle speed. The stopping distance
varies depending on gross weight, water sur-
face conditions, and wind direction.

Trimming outboard motor
EWM00741
Excessive trim for the operating condi-
tions (either trim up or trim down) can cau-
se boat instability and can make steering
the boat more difficult. This increases the
possibility of an accident. If the boat be-
gins to feel unstable or is hard to steer,
slow down and/or readjust the trim angle.
