Your selling dealer is your key to service. If you experience any problems with your new boat, immediately contact

If this is your first boat or if you are changing to a type of boat you are not familiar with, for your own comfort and
safety, you must obtain handling and operating experience before assuming command of the boat.

2700 SCR Sun Cruiser • Owner’s Manual Supplement
Safety Standards
Your boat’s mechanical an d electrical systems were designed to meet safety sta ndards in effect at the time it was
built. Some of these standards were mandated by law, all of them were designed to insure your safety, and the safety
of other people, vessels and property.
In addition to reading this owner’s manual supplement, read the owner’s manua l and all accessory instruc ti on shee ts
for important safety stand ards and hazard information.
Structural Limitations
The transom platform is designed to be lightweight for proper boat balance. The load limit for this platform is 30
pounds per square foot, evenly distributed.
Qualified Maintenance
Failure to maintain your boat’s systems as designed could violate the laws in your jurisdiction and could expose you
and other people to the danger of bodily injury or accidental death. Follow the instructions provided in the owner’s
manual, this owner's manual supplement, the engine owner’s manual and all accessory instruction sheets/manuals
included in your boat’s owner’s packet.
Special Care For Moored Boats
If moored in saltwater or fresh water, your boat will collect marine growth on its hull bottom. This will detract from
the boat’s beauty, greatly affect its performance and may damage the gelcoat. There are two methods of slowing
marine growth:
• Periodically haul the boat out of the water and scrub the hull bottom with a bristle brush and a solution of soap
and water.
• The hull below the waterline was painted with anti-fouling paint by the factory. Occasionally you will need to
re-paint it with a good grade of anti-fouling paint.
DANGER
PERSONAL SAFETY HAZARD! Do not allow anyone to ride on parts of the boat not designated
for such use. Sitting on seat backs, loung ing on t he f orward dec k, bow ri ding, gunwal e riding or
occupying the transom platform while underway is especially hazardous and will caus e personal
injury or death.
DANGER!
!
T o maintain the integrity and saf ety of your boat , only qualifi ed personnel sho uld perform maintenanc e on, or
in any way modify: The steering system, pr opulsion sys tem, engine contr ol system, fuel system, envir onmental
control system, electr ical system or navigational syste m.
WARNI NG!
!
NOTICE
• To help seal the hull bottom and reduce the possibility of ge lcoat bli stering on moored boat s,
we recommend the application of an epoxy barr ier coating, such as INTERLUX, Interprotect
2000E/2001E. The barrier coating should be c overed with several coats of anti-fouling paint.
• Many states regulate the che mical cont ent of bot tom paint s i n order to meet envi ronmental
standards. Check with your local dealer about recommended bottom paints, and about the
laws in effect in your ar ea.
