and your passengers is in your hands. Plan your trips carefully. Ensure ample fuel supply and

reserve. Tell someone where you are going and when you expect to return. Keep current charts

onboard. Read and observe USCG boating safety circulars.

Regulations

The USCG is the authority of all the waterways. State boating regulations are enforced by local

authorities. You are subject to marine traffic laws and "Rules of the Road" for both federal and

state waterways, and must submit to boarding if requested by proper authority.

There are many publications available from the Coast Guard concerning regulations and more. For

additional information call the boating safety hot line at 1(800)368-5647.

Equipment

USCG regulations require the following equipment while operating your boat:

Fire extinguisher

Personal Flotation Device (PFD) for each occupant

One throwable PFD

Sound signal device

Navigational lights if operated at night

* Sight signal (flare- night, orange flag- day) when in coastal waters or great lakes.

Anchor and sufficient line

In addition, here is a list of suggested equipment you should have aboard your Pro-Line:

First aid kit and blankets * Sea anchor with line

Mooring lines and fenders * Bailing device

Combination oar / boat hook * Tool kit and lubricant

Spare prop, nut & washer * Spare fasteners, hose clamps, plugs

Spare fuses and bulbs * Binoculars or telescope

Local charts and compass * Water proof flashlight

2 way radio (with proper license) * EPIRB (emergency beacon)

Floating key chain & spare keys * Navigation device

Emergency food and water * Water proof matches or lighter.

Passenger Safety

You are responsible for the safety and conduct of your passengers, make sure:

You instruct passengers on proper use and location of PFD's; children and non

swimmers should wear one at all times.

When underway each passenger is in a safe location, and knows to keep

the boat balanced.

At least one other person knows how to operate the boat in case of

emergency.

They are aware of dangers of the prop, and the possibility of sudden

maneuvers and jolts.

To turn the engine off and remove key when swimmers are near the prop or using the

dive platform.

All stay away from lines under stress should they break and recoil.

Rules of the Road

Know and use the rules of the road, the information here is only a brief overview. For detailed

information contact the USCG.

Audible warning signals:

One short horn blast: starboard course change.

Two short horn blasts: port course change.

Three short horn blasts: astern operation.

Five horn blasts: doubt about previous signal, or danger.

One Five second blast every minute: for fog operation

When overtaking, give- way vessel announces intention with horn blast(s) and waits for same

response, then completes maneuver.

When approaching head on both boats give way after giving appropriate horn blast. (preferably to

starboard).

When crossing a vessel converging from starboard has right of way, port vessel gives way (both

acknowledge with one short horn blast).

Know and observe navigational buoys and markers.

Give way to craft under sail.

Hazardous Conditions

Keep track of weather developments and avoid hazardous conditions if possible. When forced to

operate your Pro-Line in storm conditions:

Wear PFD's

Stow loose gear and equipment.

Place heavy items as low as possible.

Head for the easiest to reach safe location.

Reduce speed. If the boat leaves the water you're moving too fast.

If power fails rig a sea anchor off the bow (an empty ice chest will work).

Stay with boat if it capsizes, unless it is burning out of control.

Alcohol

Don't drink and drive. If you have been drinking have someone drive who has not been drinking.

Never operate a boat under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

Carbon Monoxide

Be aware of and avoid conditions that can cause carbon monoxide poisoning (see USCG boating

safety circular 77). Sources of carbon monoxide include any gas or diesel engine, any flame such

as a charcoal grill, stove or heater. Carbon monoxide can accumulate to deadly levels in enclosed

spaces. Always ventilate occupied areas of vessel with fresh air.

Fire

Be aware of and avoid conditions that lead to accidental fire. Guard against and watch for fuel

spills and leaks. Inspect wiring for damage or exposure that could lead to short circuits or arcing.

Make sure those who smoke are vigilant against their ignition source starting a fire. Don't allow

smoking while fueling. Keep a USCG approved fire extinguisher aboard at all times. Inspect the

fire extinguisher regularly, learn how (and instruct others) to properly use it. Only use water to fight

a fire as a last resort and then only after making arrangements to abandon the boat if a fire should

start and get out of control.

If a fire is burning out of control and you must abandon the boat keep the following in mind:

Abandon the boat into the wind to minimize burn risk from floating fuel.

Wear a PFD unless you must swim under burning fuel.

* If swimming under burning fuel throw a PFD outside of the burning area and swim

under the burning fuel to it..

Flooding

Be aware of and avoid conditions that can cause your boat to flood with water.

Possible causes of flooding include; damage to hull or thru-hull fitting, waves washing into the

boat, water entering cockpit due to improper loading.

If you allow water to enter the boat faster than the bilge pump can expel it, the boat will become

flooded and may swamp, capsize, or sink.

Controls

Pro-Line Boats offer many different engine and drive unit choices, therefore the information in this

manual is general in regards to engine and controls. Refer to the engine/ drive manuals in your

owners packet for additional, specific information.

Ignition

The ignition switch has three positions; off, on, start. To start the engine; attach safety lanyard to

operator, turn the key clockwise against the spring pressure to the start position, as soon as the

engine starts release clockwise pressure allowing spring tension to return switch to the on position.

If the engine fails to start within 5 seconds of cranking, allow the starter to cool 10 seconds and

repeat. For detailed instructions see engine manual.

Choke

The choke is only used to aid in starting a cold engine. Operation varies with manufacture, consult

your engine manual.

Safety Shut Down

The Safety shut down switch shuts off the engine in case the operator is thrown from the boat. To

ensure proper function always attach the lanyard securely to the operator.

Shift/ Throttle/ Trim

Your Pro-line can be ordered with several different shift/ throttle systems. Refer to the owner's

packet to find the manual pertaining to your particular installation.

Steering

Your Pro-line is equipped with a self contained hydraulic steering system. When the steering wheel

is turned the helm pump pumps fluid to the steering cylinder, causing the boat to turn.

Periodically check the fluid level and fill if necessary. Beware of adding to much fluid especially if

the ambient temperature is cold because subsequent expansion

could cause leaking or damage to your system (refer to manual in packet). Every 24 hours of

operation check all nuts, caps, and hose fittings for tightness. Check that the hoses are not chafing,

or kinking on sharp corners. Also check that hose ends are not damaged or distorted by the clamps.

The fluid should be changed yearly under normal conditions, twice yearly for heavy use. Lubricate

and maintain in accordance with manufactures manual.

If your steering does not operate properly first check for; drive entanglements, fluid level, hoses /

fittings for leaks, and / or air in the system.

Instruments

Your Pro-Line's instrumentation will vary from model to model and engine to engine, therefore the

following descriptions are general; refer to your engine manual for specifics.

Fuel Gauge

Differences in temperature, loading, speed and trim will affect the actual accuracy of this gauge in

service. It is important to verify the fuel flow in gal./hr. for your boat and make note of your gauge

position with respect to time for different RPM settings. No gauge can give 100% accuracy. If you

notice unusually high or low fuel consumption, investigate to see if the engine is using more fuel

than normal.

Water Temperature

The water temperature gauge indicates the internal water temperature of your engine. Your engine

is equipped with a thermostat to quickly bring the engine up to its optimum operating temperature

range of 150 to 170 degrees f. All outboard engines are also equipped with an audio alarm system

indicating an overheat condition. If the gauge or alarm indicates an overheat condition,

immediately shut the engine off, lift the drive and inspect water intakes for obstructions such as

aquatic vegetation or mud. After finding the source of the overheating, restart engine and confirm

water flow, if water does not flow within five seconds shut the engine off.

Volt

The volt meter indicates battery voltage; normal reading is between 12 to 15.5 volts. A low reading

indicates to heavy of a load or a dysfunction in the charging system. Too high of a voltage indicates

a fault of the charging circuitry and continued operation will damage the battery.

Tachometer

The tachometer indicates the revolutions per minute (RPM) of your engine. Do not operate the

engine beyond the limits stated in your engine manual. Abnormally low tach. readings (for a given

throttle setting) indicates loss of power, or a prop entangled with weeds or trash; check the prop

first. A reading higher than normal indicates a ventilating or cavitating prop, or prop/ drive damage.

Speedometer

The speedometer indicates the speed of your boat in miles per hour (MPH).

The gauge operates by sensing water impact pressure from the pitot tube mounted on the transom.

(or integrated into the lower drive unit of the motor). If the gauge fails to give a reading, suspect a

blocked pickup.

Trim

The trim gauge indicates the in (down) and out (up) position of the drive unit in relation to the hull.

(see Trimming your boat p.27,28 )

Options

Optional instrumentation for your Pro-Line includes: fish locator / depth finder, VHF radio, GPS ,

compass, etc. Refer to the manuals supplied.

Switches

<Fig. 1 helm, 2 switch panel>

Windshield Wiper (optional)

For operation in rain or adverse conditions, optional windshield wipers enhance visibility from the

helm and therefore safety.

Windlass (optional)

Refer to the windlass manual for operation of the optional windlass. The Windlass is protected by a

breaker located on the helm breaker panel.

BilgePump

Your Pro-Line is equipped with an automatic bilge pump system with a manual on switch. The

main pump is located at the aft end of the bilge at the keel. A forward bilge bump is under the

cabin. The automatic float switch is wired directly to the battery terminal through an in-line fuse.

Keep the bilge area clean and free from debris that could clog ports. The helm switch overrides

normal automatic operation. Circuit breakers are located at the helm (and on the transom breaker

box 29w/a & 27 sp). Keep the battery that the bilge pump is attached to charged. If the battery is

discharged and flooding occurs the boat could swamp, causing damage and possible loss of life or

property.
