them with water.
 Avoid sharp turns or other maneuvers that
make it hard for others to avoid you or un-
derstand where you are going.
 Avoid areas with submerged objects or
shallow water.
 Take early action to avoid collisions. Re-
member, boats do not have brakes.
 Do not pull the remote control levers back
to idle when trying to steer away from ob-

check throttle, shift, and steering controls
for proper operation before starting boat.
 Operate within your limits and avoid ag-
gressive maneuvers to reduce the risk of
loss of control, ejection, and collision.
