DOIN'IT ON YOUR NEW SEA-DOO SPORT BOAT
Congratulations, you are now the proud owner of a Sea-Doo Sport Boat. Whether
you are an experienced boater or are new to the sport of boating, we ask you to
take the time to view the SAFETY VIDEO provided with the boat, to read this
Operator's Guide on-product warning/caution labels and familiarize yourself with
the contents. This guide contains pertinent information which, if followed, will
provide you with the necessary knowledge to help you fully enjoy the pleasures
of this boat.
We strongly recommend that any boat operator complete a safety boating
course. Check with your local Coast Guard or Power and Sail Squadron in your
area for course availability. More serious boaters may want to obtain CHAPMAN
PILOTING by Elbert S. Maloney, available at most book stores.
When introducing your family or friends to the sport, be sure they fully under-
stand the controls and operation of the boat and the importance of courteous,
responsible riding.
Each boat operator has a responsibility to ensure the safety of his/her passen-
ger(s) and of other water users. Please follow all safety instructions and operate
your boat with care.
We encourage you to have an Annual Safety Inspection of your boat. Please
contact your authorized Sea-Doo Sport Boat dealer for further details.
Finally, we invite you to visit your authorized Sea-Doo Sport Boat dealer for regular
safety maintenance as well as any boating accessories you may require.

Have fun and... Bon Voyage.

Please keep this guide on board. This guide should remain with the boat at
time of resale.

GENERAL
Your safety and that of your passen-
gers and fellow boaters is YOUR
responsibility. Before launching your
boat, you should completely read and
understand this Operator's Guide,
product warnings and labels, the
SAFETY VIDEO and other informa-
tion provided with your boat or by
your dealer. Heed and follow all warn-
ings, safety precautions and operating
procedures.
BRP strongly recommends that you
take an approved boating safety
course. Always operate your boat
in compliance with safe boating rules,
and with consideration, courtesy and
common sense. Failure to do so could
result in injury, including the possibili-
ty of death, to you, your passengers,
others you lend your boat to, or other
water users.

NOTE: An optional brake system is
available for your trailer, contact Kar-
avan Trailers (www.karavantrailers.
com).

 WARNING
Never tow a boat with water re-
maining in the ballast bags.
The weight of ballasts increases
the load on the trailer, the axle, and
the tires, which could lead to pre-
mature wear or failure. This also
contributes to reduce the stability
of your vehicle on the road by rais-
ing the center of gravity of the trail-
er.
Always completely empty the bal-
last bags before trailering.

Take the following precautions when

trailering the boat:
Tie the boat to both bow and stern
(front/rear) eyelets so that it is firmly
retained on the trailer.
– Remove stern light (if installed).
– Ensure that ski post is pushed
down (if so equipped).
– Ensure all storage compartment
covers are properly latched.
– Ensure walk-thru door is securely
locked in the opened or closed po-
sition.
– Empty the ballast bags (if so
equipped).
– Close bimini top (if so equipped).

20 ___________ SAFETY INFORMATION ___________

CARBON MONOXIDE AND BOATING
Burning a material containing carbon
produces carbon monoxide (CO), an
odorless and colorless gas. Because
CO weighs the same as air, it can
spread throughout an enclosed space
unnoticed because you cannot see it
or smell it. Any device used to burn
carbon-based materials on a boat can
be a source of CO. Common sources
of CO include internal combustion en-
gines.
CO reacts with the blood to reduce
the ability of the blood to carry oxygen.
The reduced oxygen supply to body
tissues results in death of the tissue.
Prolonged exposure can cause brain
damage or death. In high concentra-
tions, CO can be fatal within minutes.
The effects of CO in lower concentra-
tions are cumulative and can be just as
lethal over long periods of time.
Symptoms of CO poisoning include:
Itchy and watering eyes, flushed
appearance, throbbing temples, in-
ability to think coherently, ringing in
the ears, tightness across the chest,
headaches, drowsiness, nausea, dizzi-
ness, fatigue, vomiting, collapse, and
convulsions. If any of these symp-
toms are evident, begin treatment im-
mediately. Prompt action can make
the difference between life and death.
– Evacuate the area and move the vic-
tim to fresh air.
– Administer oxygen if available and
get medical help.
– Open all canvas enclosures to ven-
tilate the area.
– Investigate the source of CO and
take immediate corrective action.
– Be especially aware of other CO
sources which may be near boat.

____________ SAFETY INFORMATION ___________ 21

Carbon Monoxide Accumulation
Following are examples of possible situations where CO may accumulate within
your boat while docked, anchored, or underway. Become familiar with these
examples and their precautions to prevent personal injury or death.

 WARNING
Exhaust Fumes! Generator or hull exhaust from other vessels while either
docked or anchored can emit poisonous CO gas and cause excessive ac-
cumulation within cabin and cockpit areas. Be alert for generator exhaust
from your vessel or other vessels alongside. Exhaust outlets near a pier,
dock, seawall or outlets blocked by any other means can cause excessive
accumulation of poisonous CO gas within cockpit area.

F00A2HL

VESSEL ALONGSIDE

 WARNING
Engine exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide (CO) which can accumu-
late in and around the boat (under bimini top, in cockpit, etc.). CO can be
harmful or fatal if inhaled. Assure there is adequate ventilation whenever
running engine(s).

F00A2IL

WHILE UNDERWAY (BACKDRAFTING)

22 ___________ SAFETY INFORMATION ___________

While underway, CO concentrations can increase by backdrafting or “the station
wagon effect”. Backdrafting is caused by factors such as relative wind direction,
speed, or the bow being too high. To prevent this, open canvas whenever pos-
sible to provide positive airflow through the hull.
Boat houses, seawalls, and other boats in close proximity or confined areas can
contribute to increased CO levels. Operators must be aware that operation,
mooring, and anchoring in an area with other boats puts them in jeopardy of
CO accumulation from other sources. Likewise, a boat operator must be aware
of how exhaust from his boat will affect others. Operation of the engines while
moored may cause CO accumulation in your boat and those around you.

F00A2JL

CONFINED AREAS

Be sure to provide adequate ventilation. If the windshield has vents, open them
before getting underway to increase positive air flow and decrease the chances
of CO accumulation.

 WARNING
Backdrafting! Under certain conditions, moving air currents can direct poi-
sonous CO fumes into boat. These fumes can accumulate to dangerous
levels without proper airflow. Provide adequate ventilation, redistribute
the load or bring boat out of high bow angle.

Even with the best boat design and construction, CO may still accumulate in
enclosed or confined areas under certain conditions. Continually observe pas-
sengers for symptoms of CO poisoning.

____________ SAFETY INFORMATION ___________ 23

Do NOT Operate your Boat
without Performing the
Following Checklist:
Each Boating Day
OPERATION ✔
Make sure you and your
passengers know where exhaust
outlets are located on the vessel
Educate all passengers about the
symptoms of co poisoning and
where CO may accumulate
When docked or rafting with
another boat, be aware of exhaust
emissions from the other boat
Confirm that water flows from the
exhaust outlet when the engine(s)
is (are) started
Listen for any change in exhaust
sound, which could indicate an
exhaust component failure
Test the operation of each CO
alarm by pressing the test button
(if so equipped)

CO Detector
It is strongly recommended that you
have CO detectors installed in boats
with canvas enclosures. Monitors are
available from your dealer. Monitors
should be professionally installed and
calibrated.
NOTE: A CO detector is not a gas fuel
vapor detector. Gas fuel vapor detec-
tors do not monitor the buildup of CO
in an enclosed area.

24 ___________ SAFETY INFORMATION ___________

SAFETY LANYARD
This safety device automatically stops
the engines if the lanyard is attached
to the operator and the operator falls
from the control station.
The safety lanyard clip must be se-
curely attached to the operator's PFD,
clothing, arm, or leg. Be sure to attach
the lanyard clip to a place where it is
free of obstructions and to something
that will move with the operator if he
or she leaves the helm station. If the
engine shuts down because the DESS
key attached to the safety lanyard was
removed, the key must be reinstalled
on the DESS post before the engine
can be restarted.

F09H1GY

TYPICAL
1. DESS key installed on DESS post
2. Safety lanyard attached to operator

 WARNING
Always use the safety lanyard
when operating your boat. Keep
DESS post free from obstructions
that could interfere with its opera-
tion. Do not modify or bypass its
safety features. The proper use
of the safety lanyard can prevent
a runaway boat situation which
otherwise could cause severe per-
sonal injury or death.

 WARNING
Alcohol consumption and boat-
ing do not mix! Operating un-
der the influence endangers the
lives of your passengers and other
boaters. Federal laws prohibit op-
erating a boat under the influence
of alcohol or drugs.

Safe Operation
For safety reasons and proper care, al-
ways perform daily PRE-OPERATION
CHECKS as specified in your Opera-
tor's Guide before operating your boat.
Safe operation means that you do not
misuse your boat nor do you allow
your passengers to do so. Safe opera-
tion means using good judgment at all
times. It includes, without limitation,
the following actions:
– Load the boat within the limits list-
ed on the capacity plate. Balance
loads bow to stern and port to star-
board.
– Maintain boat speed at or below the
local legal limit. Avoid excessive
speed or speeds not appropriate for
operating conditions.

26 ___________ SAFETY INFORMATION ___________

PASSENGER SAFETY
Before getting underway, show all
passengers where emergency and
safety equipment is stowed, and
explain how to use it. Everyone
aboard should wear rubber-soled
shoes which resist slipping on wet
surfaces. While underway, passen-
gers should remain seated inside the
deck rails. Don't allow passengers
to drag their feet or hands in the
water. Always use handholds and
other safety hardware to prevent falls.
All non-swimmers, poor swimmers,
and children should wear a PFD at
all times. Federal regulations require
that children under 13 years of age
wear a PFD when the boat is under-
way unless they are in an enclosed
cabin or below deck.

First Aid
As a boat operator, you should be fa-
miliar with basic first aid procedures
that may be needed while you are far
from help. Fish hook accidents or mi-
nor cuts and abrasions may be the
most serious mishaps on board a boat,
but you should also learn the prop-
er procedures and be ready to deal
with the truly serious problems like
excessive bleeding, hypothermia, and
burns. First aid literature and courses
are available through most Red Cross
chapters.

Operation by Minors
Minors should always be supervised
by an adult whenever operating a
boat. Many states have laws regard-
ing the minimum age and licensing
requirements of minors. Be sure to
contact the state boating authorities
for information. BRP recommends
a minimum operator age of 16 years
old.

Propulsion
Each engine is directly coupled to a
drive shaft which, in turn, rotates an
impeller. This impeller rotates within
a housing drawing water in from be-
neath the boat. Water is then forced
by the impeller through a venturi. The
venturi pressurizes and accelerates
the water, producing thrust to move

use owner if the preceding conditions have not been met. Such limitations are
necessary in order to allow BRP to preserve both the safety of its products, and
also that of its consumers and the general public.

6) WHAT TO DO TO OBTAIN WARRANTY COVERAGE

The customer must notify a servicing BRP distributor/dealer within two (2)
months of the appearance of a defect, and provide it with reasonable access
to the product and reasonable opportunity to repair it. The customer must
also present to the authorized BRP distributor/dealer, proof of purchase of the
product and must sign the repair/work order prior to starting the repair in order
to validate the warranty repair. All parts replaced under this limited warranty
become the property of BRP.
Note that the notification period is subject to the applicable national or local leg-
islation in your country.

7) WHAT BRP WILL DO

BRP’s obligations under this warranty are limited to, at its sole discretion, repair-
ing parts found defective under normal use, maintenance and service, or replac-
ing such parts with new genuine sport boat parts without charge for parts and
labor, at any authorized BRP distributor/dealer during the warranty coverage pe-
riod.
BRP reserves the right to improve or modify products from time to time without
assuming any obligation to modify products previously manufactured.

8) TRANSFER
If the ownership of a product is transferred during the warranty coverage peri-
od, this warranty shall also be transferred and be valid for the remaining cover-
age period provided BRP or an authorized BRP distributor/dealer receives a proof
that the former owner agreed to the transfer of ownership, in addition to the co-
ordinates of the new owner.

CHANGE OF ADDRESS/OWNERSHIP
If your address has changed or if you are the new owner of the boat, be sure to
notify BRP by either:
– mailing one of the following card below;
– North America only: calling at 715 848-4957 (USA) or 819 566-3366 (Canada);
– contacting an authorized BRP distributor/dealer.
In case of change of ownership, please join a proof that the former owner agreed
to the transfer.
Notifying BRP, even after the expiration of the limited warranty, is very important
as it enables BRP to reach the boat owner if necessary, like when safety recalls
are initiated. It is the owner’s responsibility to notify BRP.
STOLEN UNITS: In the event that your boat is stolen, you should notify your
area’s distributor warranty department of such. We will ask you to provide your
name, address, phone number, Hull Identification Number and date it was stolen.
