Dear Customer,
This manual will help you to easily and safely master your vessel.
It contains a detailed description of the vessel, the supplied or built-in
equipment, its sets as well as information about its control and mainte-
nance. Please read it carefully, thereby getting to know the boat before
actually using it.
If this is your fi rst vessel or you have changed the type of vessel and
do not know this type well, please get acquainted with its maintenance
and control prior to your fi rst individual use of the vessel so that it is safe
and comfortable. Your dealer or the National Yacht Federation or club
will recommend you appropriate training courses or qualifi ed instructors.
Do not pull off until the expected sailing conditions (wind strength and
wave height) are appropriate for the construction category of your vessel
and you and your crew are able to control it in these conditions.
Please store this manual in a safe place and hand it over to the new
owner should you sell the vessel.
