Transporting

1. For optimum handling, the trailer must be properly loaded and balanced.
2. Keep the center of gravity low for best handling.
3. Approximately 60 percent of the boat's weight should be positioned on the front half of the trailer and 40
percent in the rear.
4. The boat should also be balance from side to side. If the vessel has side mounted fuel or water tanks and
only one side is filled, then this will lend the rig to maneuver poorly. Proper balancing will also prolong the
life of your trailers tires.
5. The boat should be firmly secured with at least two ratchet type straps, one attached from the trailer to the
stern eyes and one strap from the trailer, to the bow eye to keep the boat from shifting forward. The bow
eye should also be attached to the trailer's winch which is mounted forward of the bow. Make sure you have
sufficient clearance to avoid to damage outboard or boat during transportation.
6. Classic models can be accommodated/ transported on a roof rack. We recommend the boat to be protected
from the roof rack that could damage the tube material. Boat should be stowed upside-down. Oars, bench
seat and equipments should be removed from the boat. Boat must be secured using reliable nylon tie-down
straps with cam-buckles. We recommend also tying a small rope off at the bow towing eye for extra safety.

Engine Start

Before starting the engine, it is imperative:
a) To open the fuel supply valve
b) To switch on the battery supply by using the battery isolator switches
c) To put the control lever in neutral
d) To attach the circuit-breaker/ kill switch lanyard to the pilot.
Make sure a habit of looking to see if sea water is pumped out with the exhaust gases as soon as you start
the engine. If no water runs out, stop the engine immediately. Check the coolant flow.
Danger
Before using the engine, make sure you carefully read the handbook provided by the engine manufacturer.
Always start the engine with the control lever in neutral.
Learn how to judge the necessary distance of deceleration for the vessel to come to a complete stop (The reverse
gear is not a brake)
Use the kill switch lanyard.
