2013 MasterCraft Owners Manual • Safety Knowledge • Page 1-3
Prior to operation, be certain that all passengers are aware of where the safety
equipment is stowed, the location of emergency equipment such as fire extinguishers and
how this equipment is used. In case of potential emergencies, be sure that at least one
other person on-board understands how to operate the boat.
Your safety, as well as the safety of others with and around you, is a direct result
of how you operate and maintain your boat. You—and anyone who will be operating this
boat—should read and seek to fully comprehend this Owner’s Manual, and any additional
information provided by component manufacturers and suppliers. Make sure that you
understand all of the controls and operating instructions before attempting to operate the
boat. Improper operation is extremely dangerous!
The basic safety rules are outlined in this section of the Owner’s Manual. Addition-
al precautions throughout the Manual are noted by the following symbols:
This is the safety alert symbol. It is used to alert you to poten-
tial personal injury hazards. Obey all safety messages that fol-
low this symbol to avoid possible injury or death.
DANGER indicates an imminently hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, will result in
death or serious injury.
WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, could result in
death or serious injury.
CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, may result in
minor or moderate injury.
CAUTION used without the safety alert
symbol indicates a potentially hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, may result in
property damage.
The precautions listed in this Owner’s Manual and on the boat are not all-inclusive.
If a procedure, method, tool or part is not specifically recommended by MasterCraft,
using it may place you and others in an unsafe situation; in addition, you may render
your warranty void. Remember: Always use common sense when operating, servicing or
repairing the boat!
Observing the safety recommendations found in this Owner’s Manual is critical
to keeping your boating experience as safe as possible during routine operation. Your
failure to do so may result in severe personal injury or death to you and/or others.
Use caution and common sense when operating your boat. Do not ever take unnec-
essary chances!
