PREVENT MAJOR DAMAGE
27
j
Righting Capsized Watercraft
•
Rolling the capsized watercraft counterclockwise
(to its STARBOARD side) can cause water in the
exhaust system to run into the engine, with pos-
sible engine damage. Always turn the capsized
boat clockwise so that the PORT side always
faces downward.
•
For details on righting, refer to Righting the Cap-
sized Watercraft section in the OPERATING IN-
STRUCTIONS chapter.
Shallow Water
•
When starting the engine or riding, the watercraft
must be in water at least 0.8 m (2.5 ft) deep. Sand
or debris from the bottom may be drawn into the
jet pump and damage the pump and impeller, and
possibly clog cooling lines.
•
If operating in shallow or debris-laden water, ob-
jects or sand from the bottom can get sucked in
damaging the impeller and possibly clogging cool-
ing hoses which can cause severe engine damage
from overheating.
•
Avoid beaching the watercraft. Stones and sand
can scratch the hull and be drawn into the jet
pump, causing damage to the impeller.
