GENERAL INFORMATION
Lanyard Stop Switch (Continued)
Accidental or unintended activation of the switch during normal operation is also a
possibility. This could cause any, or all, of the following potentially hazardous
situations:
1. Occupants could be thrown forward due to unexpected loss of forward motion
– a particular concern for passengers in the front of the boat who could be
ejected over the bow and possibly struck by the hull.
2. Loss of power and directional control in heavy seas, strong current or high
winds.
3. Loss of control when docking.
WARNING
Avoid serious injury or death from deceleration forces resulting from
accidental or unintended stop switch activation. The boat operator should
never leave the operator’s station without first disconnecting the stop
switch lanyard from the operator.

Stopping The Boat In An Emergency
Your jet powered boat has emergency stopping capability unique to this form of
propulsion.
In an emergency, putting the remote control handle into reverse and applying
reverse throttle can rapidly slow down your boat and reduce the stopping distance.
Keep in mind, however, that such a maneuver may cause occupants in the boat to
be thrown forward or even out of the boat.
WARNING
Using the emergency stopping capability of your jet drive will slow down
your boat in an emergency. However keep in mind, sudden stopping may
cause the occupants in the boat to be thrown forward or even out of the boat.
This action may result in serious injury or death.
