The spotter should watch the skier and inform the driver when the
skier is down.
< When the skier goes down, look for his or her “OK” signal.
< Approach the downed skier on the starboard side only. Stop the
motor once you are close.
< Always be aware of shallow water and obstructions.

< Do not ski near swimmers or in crowded boat traffic. Keep away
from fishermen.

All water skiers are required to wear a USCG-
approved PFD at all times.
