system.  Such impacts  can result  in  serious
damage to  your outboard  and injury to  boat
occupants from the  outboard or its  parts en-
tering the boat. Occupants can also be eject-
ed or injured by falling against portions of the
boat as a result of rapid deceleration following
impacts.
If the collision occurred in the water, proceed
slowly to harbor.  Before boating again,  have
your  Dealer  thoroughly  inspect  all  compo-
nents.
WARNING
When  boating in  unfamiliar, shallow,  or  de-
bris-laden  waters, seek  information on  safe
boating areas and navigation hazards from  a
reliable local source. Reduce your speed and
keep a sharp lookout!
Failure to  inspect  for damage  after an
accident  or   striking  an  object   could
result  in  sudden,  unexpected  compo-
nent  failure, loss  of  boat control,  and
personal   injury.   Unrepaired   damage
could reduce your boat  and outboard’s
ability to resist future impacts.
The   outboard’s   shock  absorption   system
does not  work while  operating in  reverse. If
you back into an object, either in the water or
while trailering,  your boat  and outboard  can
be seriously damaged.
