Have a safe cruise and enjoy yourself.
Remember:
When you operate a boat, you accept the responsibility for the
boat, for the safety of passengers and for others out enjoying
the water.
Alcohol and any drugs can severely reduce your reaction
time and affect your better judgement.
Alcohol severely reduces the ability to react to several
different signals at once.
Alcohol makes it difficult to correctly judge speed and
distance, or track moving objects.
Alcohol reduces night vision, and the ability to distinguish
red from green.
YOU SHOULD NEVER OPERATE YOUR BOAT
WHILE UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF ALCOHOL OR
DRUGS.
Make sure one other person on the boat is instructed in the
operation of the boat.
Make sure the boat is operated in compliance with all state
and local laws governing the use of a boat.
DO NOT OPERATE THE BOAT UNLESS IT IS
COMPLETELY ASSEMBLED. KEEP ALL FASTENERS
TIGHT. KEEP ADJUSTMENTS ACCORDING TO
SPECIFICATIONS.
Always operate the blowers when operating the boat below
cruising speed or when the generator is running to help
cool the engine compartment.
Avoid sea conditions that are beyond the skill and
experience of you and your crew. Learn to understand
weather patterns and indications for change. You should
monitor NOAA weather broadcasts before leaving port and
periodically while boating. If the weather deteriorates or
a storm approaches, seek shelter in a safe harbor.
Use caution during periods of reduced visibility due
to weather or operation conditions. Reduce speed and
designate a passenger to be a lookout for other boats,
obstacles and navigational markers until you reach port
or conditions improve.
Your Albemarle is a heavy boat that will produce a large
wake at certain speeds. You are responsible for damage
and injury caused by your boat’s wake. Always observe
no wake zones and be aware that your wake can endanger
small vessels and their passengers. Always be courteous
and slow down to reduce your wake when passing smaller
boats.
Before operating the boat for the first time, read the engine
break-in procedures. The break-in procedures are found
in the owner’s manual for the engines. The manual is in
the literature packet.
As different types of engines are used to power the boat,
have the dealer describe the operating procedures for your
boat. For more instructions on “How To Operate The
Boat,make sure you read the instructions given to you
in the owner’s manual for the engines you have selected.
Note: For more instructions on safety, equipment and
boat handling, enroll in one of the several free
boating courses offered. For information on the
courses offered in your area, call the “Boating
Course Hotline,” 1-800-368-5647.
Note: If the running gear hits an underwater object, stop
the engines. Inspect the propulsion system for
damage. If the system is damaged, contact your
dealer for a complete inspection and repair of the
unit.
To stop the boat, follow this procedure:
Allow the engines to drop to the idle speed.
Make sure the shifting levers are in the neutral position.
Note: If the engines have been run at high speed for a
long period of time, allow the engines to cool down
by running the engines in the idle position for 3 to
5 minutes.
Turn the ignition keys to the “OFF” position.
Raise the trim tabs to the full up position.
After Operation:
If operating in saltwater, wash the boat and all equipment
with soap and water.
Check the bilge area for debris and excess water.
