on “Starting and Operation” in the engine manu-
facturer’s manual.
When docking the boat, all docking maneu-
vers must be performed at slow speed. Pay
special attention to other boaters. Passen-
gers should be informed of potential
problems and precautions taken.
DO NOT shift into FORWARD or REVERSE
unless engine is running.  Damage to the shift
system could result from trying to shift without
the engine running.  Carefully check function of
all control and engine systems before leaving
