                        (1) When the sailing vessel is overtaking the
                            power-driven vessel, the power-driven
                            vessel has the right-of-way.
                        (2) Sailing vessels should keep clear of any
                            fishing vessel.
                        (3) In a narrow channel, a sailing vessel
                            should not hamper the safe passage of a
                            power-driven vessel that  can  navigate

                             WARNING
                        Failure to inspect or maintain the boat properly increases the possibility of an accident
                        or damage to the boat. Do not operate the boat if you find any problem.
                        If a problem cannot be corrected by the procedures provided in this manual, have the
                        boat inspected by a Yamaha Boat Dealer.

                        Pre-operation checklist
                        Before operating this boat, perform the checks in the following checklist. Always follow the inspec-
                        tion and maintenance procedures and schedules described in this owner’s/operator’s manual.
                        Pre-operation checks should be made each time the boat is used. These checks can be com-
                        pleted in a short time. It is worth the time spent to ensure safety and reliability.

                            want to lower the anchor, heading the
                            boat into the wind or current. Stop the
                            boat, and then lower the anchor until it
                            hits bottom.

                            holding.  Also, periodically check  your
                            boat’s position against the shoreline to

                        Towing the boat
                             WARNING

                         The  operator of the  towing boat must
                          keep  speed to a minimum  and avoid
                          traffic or obstacles which could be  a
                          hazard to either boat.
                         The towing line should be long enough
                          so the towed boat will not collide with
                          the towing boat when slowing down.

                        The boat should be towed only if it becomes
                        inoperative.
                        The towing rope should be long enough so
                        that the boat will not collide with the towing
                        boat when slowing  down. A good rule of
                        thumb is a tow rope which is three times the
                        combined length of the towing boat and the
                        boat.
                        Tow the boat using the bow eye only. Tow the
                        boat at a no-wake speed. NOTICE: Do not
                        tow the boat at speed fast enough to leave
                        a wake (8 km/h, 5 mph). Severe engine
                        damage could result because water can
                        flood the non-operating engines through
                        the water intakes.

                        available through your Yamaha dealer or you can order them directly through
                        yamahapubs.com.
