GENERAL INTRODUCTION FOR THE OWNER'S MANUAL
This manual has been compiled to help you operate your craft with safety and pleasure. It contains
details of the craft, the equipment supplied and information on their operation. Please read it carefully
and familiarize yourself with the craft before using it.
This owner's manual is not a course on boating safety or seamanship. If this is your first craft, or if you
are changing to a type of craft you are not familiar with, for your own comfort and safety, please ensure
that you obtain handling and operating experience before "assuming command" of the craft. Your dealer
or national sailing federation or yacht club will be pleased to advise you of local sea schools, or compe-
tent instructors.
Ensure that the anticipated wind and sea conditions will correspond to the design category of your craft,
and that you and your crew are able to handle the craft in these conditions.
Even when your boat is categorized for them, the sea and wind conditions corresponding to the design
categories A, B and C range from severe storm conditions for category A, to strong conditions for the top
of category C, open to the hazards of a freak wave or gust. These are therefore dangerous conditions,
where only a competent, fit and trained crew using a well maintained craft can satisfactorily operate.
This owner's manual is not a detailed maintenance or trouble-shooting guide. In the case of difficulty,
refer to the safety characteristics of the craft shall be assessed, executed and documented by compe-
tent people. The boat builder cannot be held responsible for modifications that he has not approved.
In some countries, a driving license or authorizations are required, or specific regulations are in force.
Always maintain your craft properly and make allowance for any deterioration that might occur in time
as a result of heavy use or misuse of the craft.
Any craft, no matter how strong it may be, can be severely damaged if not used properly. This is not
compatible with safe boating. Always adjust the speed and direction of the craft to sea conditions.
All persons should wear a suitable buoyancy aid (life jacket/personal floatation device) when on deck.
Note that, in some countries, it is a legal requirement to wear a buoyancy aid that complies with their
national regulations at all times.
PLEASE KEEP THIS MANUAL IN A SECURE PLACE, AND HAND IT OVER TO THE NEW OWNER
WHEN YOU SELL THE CRAFT.
