General Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of a Marine Revolution Smartwave 2400 boat. This manual has been compiled to help you operate your craft with safety and pleasure. It contains details of the craft, the equipment supplied or fitted systems and information on its operation and maintenance. Please read it carefully and familiarise yourself with the craft before using it.
If this is your first craft, or you are changing to a type of craft you are not familiar with, for your own comfort and safety, please ensure that you obtain handling and operating experience before assuming command of the craft. Your dealer, national sailing federation or yacht club will be pleased to advise you of local sea schools or competent instructors.
PLEASE KEEP THIS MANUAL IN A SECURE PLACE AND HAND IT OVER TO THE NEW OWNER WHEN YOU SELL THE CRAFT.
The Safety Alert Symbol means ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS
INVOLVED! Please pay particular attention to the corresponding section in this manual and around the craft.
A CAUTION indicates special precautions that must be taken to avoid
damage to the boat, engine or crew.
Failure to follow WARNING instructions could result in severe injury or death
to the boat operator, crew or bystander.
Safe Boat Handling;
Always wear an approved life jacket.
Do not operate this craft at maximum speed while in congested high traffic waterways or in weather and sea conditions of reduced visibility, high winds or large waves. Reduce speed and wake as a courtesy and as a safety consideration to yourself and others. Observe and obey speed limit and No Wake Zones.
Observe right-of-way as defined by Rules of the Road and required by COLREG
Always be certain to have sufficient distance to stop or manoeuvre if required to avoid collisions
Ensure the crew and load is distributed throughout the boat evenly to maintain safe operational trim.
Boat Loading and Trim
It is imperative the operator uses common sense when loading the boat/seating crew to achieve a safe and level trim. The positioning of the seats and capacity does not imply in any way that is safe to use the seating provided in every instance. Particular care should be taken when

positioning weight at the stern or bow of the boat is this may lead to swamping or dangerous handling characteristics.
Man-overboard Prevention and Recovery (BS EN ISO 15085)
Re entry at the stern of the boat is recommended if the vessel is in the swamped condition
NOTE:
This boat does not require any specific devise to re-board due to its characteristics. Re entry at the stern of the boat is recommended and demonstrated in the following pictures.
Drink and drugs
Be sensible about drinking alcohol, as it will impair your judgement. Consider it as irresponsible for a skipper and crew to be in charge of a powerboat under the influence of alcohol as it is for the driver of a car. Beware of the side effects of any medication which may impair judgement and reduce the effectiveness of the person concerned.
Environmental considerations
Polyethylene thermoplastic is fully recyclable, an important feature in a world where we are conscious of our impact on the environment
