Bow down
Turn the grip to A or B and the bow will
go down while the watercraft is on plane.
Bow down puts more of the bow in the
water. This gives the watercraft more “hook,”
which enhances turning performance. This
position will also help the watercraft get up
on plane more quickly.
At higher speeds, however, the watercraft
will have greater tendency to “bow steer”
and follow waves and wakes in the water.
Fuel economy and maximum speed are also
reduced.

Bow up
Turn the grip to C or D and the bow will
go up while the watercraft is on plane.
Bow up puts less of the bow in the water.
There is less water resistance, so straight-
ahead acceleration when on plane and top
speed are enhanced.
In some conditions, however, the water-
craft may tend to “porpoise” (hop in the
water). If the watercraft is porpoising,
choose neutral or bow down.

Handgrip
The handgrip 1 provides a handhold for
boarding the watercraft.
WARNING
@
Do not use the handgrip to lift the water-
craft. The watercraft could fall, which
could result in severe injury.
