Boat Horsepower Capacity

Do not overpower or overload your boat. Most boats will carry a
required capacity plate indicating the maximum acceptable pow-
er and load as determined by the manufacturer following certain
federal guidelines. If in doubt, contact your dealer or the boat
manufacturer.
WARNING
!
Using an outboard that exceeds the maximum horsepower
limit of a boat can: 1. cause loss of boat control 2. place too
much weight at the transom altering the designed flotation
characteristics of the boat or 3. cause the boat to break apart
particularly around the transom area. Overpowering a boat
can result in serious injury, death, or boat damage.

High-Speed And High-Performance Boat
Operation

If your outboard is to be used on a high-speed or high-perfor-
mance boat with which you are unfamiliar, we recommend that
you never operate it at its high speed capability without first re-
questing an initial orientation and familiarization demonstration
ride with your dealer or an operator experienced with your boat/
outboard combination. For additional information, read the
“Guide to Hi-Performance Boat Operation” booklet included in
your literature package.
