ENGLISH
− Position the passengers, curtains, etc., in such a way that they do
not limit your field of vision.
− Do not drive continuously at the planing threshold because the
high bow will decrease visibility.
− Control the attitude of the boat by adjusting the power trim to
prevent the rising bow from reducing visibility.
− Use windshield wipers when necessary.
− In poor visibility conditions, open the cabin roof hatch to see better.
− Keep a lookout astern particularly in shipping lanes.
When it is dark or visibility is limited (e.g. fog), switch on the naviga-
tion lights. Turn o the cabin lights if the reflections decrease visibility.
5.10 Proper seamanship – recommendations
and instructions
5.10.1 Protection from falling overboard and
means of re-boarding
In calm seas, the easiest way of re-boarding is to use the swim lad-
der mounted onto the transom. The ladder can also be pulled down
by a person who is in water. Fig. 4.
5.10.2 Stowage of life raft
On Silver Cabin models, a stowage point for the life raft is provided
in the open space astern.
5.10.3 Ventilation
The stove draws the oxygen required for combustion from the cab-
in and generates combustion gases. Provide adequate ventilation
when using the stove.
