Passenger Safety Message ‑ Pontoon Boats and
Deck Boats
Whenever the boat is in motion, observe the location of all
passengers. Do not allow any passengers to stand or use seats
other than those designated for traveling faster than idle speed.
A sudden reduction in boat speed, such as plunging into a large
wave or wake, a sudden throttle reduction, or a sharp change of
boat direction, could throw them over the front of the boat.
Falling over the front of the boat between the two pontoons will
position them to be run over by the outboard.
BOATS HAVING AN OPEN FRONT DECK
No one should ever be on the deck in front of the fence while the
boat is in motion. Keep all passengers behind the front fence or
enclosure.
