2. Safety

Necessary safety equipment is required on the boat at all times. 

The boat owner is responsible for making sure that all safety equipment, eg. fire extinguishers, meet the rules and regulations of the local authorities.

Overloading the boat can damage the engine, even when shut off.

When loading the boat, never exceed the maximum recommended load of the boat. Always load the boat carefully and distribute loads appropriately to maintain design trim. Avoid placing heavy equipment or material high up in the boat.

Do not exceed the maximum number of persons allowed in the boat. The total weight of the persons on board and their personal luggage must never exceed the maximum load of the boat.

When out on the water, always use the seats intended for passengers.

The specified tank capacity is not necessarily fully available, depending on the trim and load on board. The tank should always be kept at least 20% full.

The liquids in the built-in tanks are not included in the maximum load shown on the builder's plate.
