Safety Section 1

Operator Responsibilities

It is expected by Brunswick Commercial & Govern-

ment Products (BCGP) that the personnel authorized

to operate this boat are experienced boat handlers

familiar with high-performance boating. BCGP cannot

predict, nor warn against, every possible hazardous

situation related to the operation and maintenance of

this boat.

If you use a method or procedure different from one

outlined in this manual, you must satisfy yourself that

your method or procedure will not put your boat, your

crew, or other boaters at risk.

The safety of this boat and its crew is always your

responsibility. Follow these general guidelines when

operating this boat:

• Read this manual before you operate the boat.

Understand all of the information in the manual,

particularly Sections 1 and 2.

• Understand the operation of all boat controls and

systems.

• Make this manual available to any person who

might operate this boat.

• Always operate this boat within the limits of your

skill and experience. If you do not have the

appropriate level of experience, ask someone to

instruct you.

• Understand and follow all applicable boating regu-

lations.

• Always use safety equipment and operating pro-

cedures that are appropriate for your mission.

• Never work alone around machinery such as out-

board engines, generators, and fire pumps.

Giving Assistance

The 1971 Federal Boat Safety Act grants protection

to any person who offers good faith assistance to

another boater who is in distress. The “Good Samari-

tan” rule will protect you from liability if you act in a rea-

sonable and prudent manner while attempting to

render assistance during a boating emergency.

You should attempt to give assistance when you see a

distress signal while boating if you can do so without

endangering your boat or your crew.

1-2

Section 1 Safety

Personal Flotation Devices

Personal Flotation Devices (PFDs) are designed to save lives. It is your responsibility to ensure

that the boat has a sufficient number of PFDs for your crew. It is your responsibility to ensure

that non-swimmers wear PFDs at all times and that everyone wears a PFD during emergencies,

special operations, and severe weather.

The United States Coast Guard recognizes four types of wearable devices and one type of

throwable device.

•Type I –Life preserver, appropriate for open ocean, off-shore, and foul weather.

•Type II –Buoyant vest, appropriate for near-shore and inland waters.

•Type III –Flotation aid, appropriate for calm inland waters.

•Type IV –Throwable device, appropriate to throw to a person already in the water. These

devices must never be worn as a vest.

•Type V –Special-purpose vest, includes harnesses, working vests, and rafting vests.

These vests must be worn while underway to count toward minimum PFD requirements.

All PFDs must be easily accessible. They must be removed from their shipping bags and they

should be unbuckled. Make sure that everyone knows where the PFDs are located. Make sure

that everyone knows how to put one on and correctly adjust it.

Check the availability and condition of all PFDs before each mission.
