ON THE WATER

Protecting People In The Water
While You Are Cruising
It is very difficult for a person standing or floating in the water to take quick action to avoid
a boat heading in his/her direction even at slow speed.
Always slow down and exercise extreme caution any time you are boating in an area where
there might be people in the water.
Whenever a boat is moving (coasting) in NEUTRAL/IDLE, there is sufficient force by the
water on the propeller to cause the propeller to rotate. This neutral propeller rotation can
cause serious injury.
While Boat Is Stationary
WARNING
Stop your engine immediately whenever anyone in the water is near your boat.
Serious injury to the person in the water is likely if contacted by a rotating propeller,
a moving boat, a gear case or any solid device rigidly attached to a moving boat or
gear case.
Shift into the NEUTRAL/IDLE position and shut off the engine before allowing people to
swim or be in the water near your boat.

High-Speed And High-Performance Boat Operation
If your boat is considered a high-speed or high-performance boat with which you are
unfamiliar, we recommend that you never operate it at its high speed capability without first
requesting an initial orientation and demonstration ride with your dealer or an operator
experienced with your boat. For additional information, refer to Hi-Performance Boat
Operation booklet (90-849250-R2) from your authorized Cummins MerCruiser Diesel
dealer or distributor.
