INTRODUCTION

Congratulations, you are now the

proud owner of a Sea-Doo personal

watercraft. You have selected one

of the most popular watercraft on

water. Your Sea-Doo®personal wa-

tercraft (PWC) can provide you and

your family or friends the opportunity

to fully enjoy the natural beauty and

excitement of the world’s waterways.

Welcome to fun on water!

With this new enjoyment and freedom

however comes the responsibility of

safety for yourself, your passengers,

the people you lend your watercraft to,

and other water users. Please follow

all safety instructions and operate your

watercraft with care. Be sure every

operator of your watercraft fully under-

stands the controls and operation of it

and the importance of courteous, re-

sponsible riding. Each operator has a

responsibility to ensure the safety of

his/her passenger(s) and of other wa-

ter users. Always inform your passen-

gers of safety precautions.

Some of the information contained in

this safety section may be new to you

while other information may be com-

mon sense or obvious. Irrespective,

wewantyoutohaveasafe,pleasur-

able riding experience, so please take

a few minutes of your time to com-

pletely read this short safety section.

Although the mere reading of such in-

formation does not eliminate the haz-

ard, the understanding and application

of the information will promote the

correct use of the watercraft.

Failure to follow this safety section

may result in severe injury or death.

This safety section is for initial ref-

erence and its content is therefore

the on-product warning/caution labels.

It is also strongly recommended that

operators obtain further information

concerning “Boating Rules” from a

local Coast Guard Auxiliary, Power-

boat Squadron or other local boating

authorities.

Many states or provinces have re-

quirements regarding boating safety

and competence certificates. BRP

strongly recommends that any water-

craft operator completes a safety and

competence boating course. Check

with your local Coast Guard or Power

Sail Squadron in your area for course

availability.

Some boating safety information can

be obtained from the Boating Safe-

ty/Regulation Web sites listed at the

end of this safety section.

Regulations concerning boating are

modified from time to time. It is ad-

visable to periodically check the local

regulations wherever you plan to op-

erate your watercraft.

We encourage you to have an Annu-

al Safety Inspection of your personal

watercraft. Please contact your deal-

er for further details.

Finally, we urge you to visit your dealer

regularly for regular and safety main-

tenance and for any accessories you

may require.

Have fun and... Bon Voyage.
