safety is an important issue for everyone who shares our waterways.
Remember that along with the freedom and exhilaration of boating comes the responsibility that you have for the
safety of your passengers and the other boaters who share the water with you. Throughout this manual, specific
precautions and symbols identify safety-related information. Be sure to pay close attention to them.
