2016 OWNERS MANUAL / 027
RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT
The responsible boat owner will avoid potential problems on an
outing by having additional equipment on board. Normally, the
decision regarding the appropriate equipment to take on individual
outings is dependent upon the body of water and the length
of the trip. We suggest the following equipment as a minimum
(your MasterCraft dealer can also assist you with additional
recommendations):
• Anchor with at least 75 feet of line (in saltwater operation,
particularly)
• Manual bailing device for removing water
• Combination oar/boat hook
• Day-and-night visual distress signal
• First aid kit and manual
• Airway breathing tube
• Waterproof flashlight
• Non-electric horn or whistle
• Set of local navigational charts
• Mooring lines and fenders
• Extra engine oil
• Tool kit
• Portable, battery-operated AM/FM radio or weather radio/scanner
SAFETY EQUIPMENT
Federal law requires certain safety equipment to be on-board your
boat at all times. Responsible boaters carry additional equipment
in case of emergency. It is your responsibility to check with the
local boating authorities for any additional requirements and/or
equipment over and above the federal requirements.
REQUIRED EQUIPMENT
Your MasterCraft boat was equipped at the factory with most of
the federally required safety equipment for inland waters (Class II,
26-foot-to-40-foot watercraft). This equipment includes:
• ABYC-approved (American Boat & Yacht Club) marine mufflers
with water injection
• USCG-approved (United States Coast Guard) marine flame
arrestor
• USCG-approved engine box ventilation with sparkless blower
• ABYC-approved electric horn sound-warning device
• USCG-approved inland lighting
• Automatic and manual fire extinguishers
