Section 2

Boating Safety

Important Safety Information!

Your safety, as well as the safety of others with and around you, is a direct result of how you operate and maintain your boat. Read and comprehend this manual. Make sure that you understand all the controls and operating instructions before attempting to operate the boat. Improper operation is extremely dangerous.

The basic safety rules are outlined in this section of the manual. Additional precautions throughout the manual are noted by the following symbols:

This symbol indicates a potentially hazardous circumstance, which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert against unsafe practices.

This symbol indicates a potentially hazardous situation, which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

This symbol indicates an imminently hazardous situation, which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury. This is limited to the most extreme situations.

The precautions listed in this manual and on the boat are not exhaustive. If a procedure, method, tool or part is not specifically recommended by Skier’s Choice, you must satisfy yourself that it is safe for you and others, and that the boat will not be damaged or made unsafe as a result of your decision.

REMEMBER: ALWAYS USE COMMON SENSE WHEN OPERATING, SERVICING OR REPAIRING THE BOAT!

In addition to everyday safety, failure to observe safety recommendations may result in severe personal injury or death to you or to others. Use caution and common sense when operating your boat. Don’t take unnecessary chances!

Be certain that all boat passengers are aware of this information and conform to boat safety principles.

Safe Boating

Safe boating practices may seem obvious, but people have thought up risky and dangerous activities in boats, with boats, and behind boats. Just because you or your passengers have seen a boating maneuver performed or have seen a particular activity promoted, do not assume there is no risk of injury or death. Before you or your passengers go out in the boat and engage in any water sport activity, give careful consideration to the risks. Plan ahead. Think twice before you try something new behind your boat or with your boat. Know the limits of you, your passengers and your equipment and do not exceed them.

In addition to careful review of this manual, you should be aware as well that there are many sources of information available. Skier’s Choice urges you to pursue additional training, such as safety and seamanship courses oered by the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary and the U.S. Power Squadron.

Safe boating and safe actions may seem obvious, yet every year US Coast Guard statistics give evidence that many people disregard safe boating practices. Do not take safety for granted. Think twice. We want all our boat owners and their passengers, friends, and families to have a safe and enjoyable experience on the water.

US Coast Guard Auxiliary

Boating Safety Course

The purchaser of a new 2017 Supra boat is entitled to a USCGA Boating Safety Course that Supra will pay for. Please see the Certicate in your owner’s packet or your dealer for more details.

Water Sports Names and Terminology

There are many types of towed water sports, and they are known by many dierent names. The more popular sports are wakeboarding, waterskiing, surfing, wakeskating and tubing. And there are many others. The terms used to describe participants in towed water sports activities also vary greatly. Typical terms include rider, skier, and wakeboarder. To keep the language in this manual straightforward, we use rider or skier to refer to a participant in any towed water sport. The terms ski, skiing, riding, surng or wakeboarding are used to refer to any towed water sport.

Your Supra has been equipped at the factory with most of the federally required safety equipment for inland waters (Class 1, 16’-to-26’). This equipment includes:

• UL-approved Marine Fire Extinguisher, Type A-BC (2 lbs.), good for solids, liquids, and electrical re

• ABYC-approved Marine Muers with water injection

• USCG-approved Marine Flame Arrestor

• USCG-approved Engine Box Ventilation with sparkless power blower

• ABYC-approved Electric Horn sound warning device

• USCG-approved inland lighting

Federal law also requires at least one Type I, II or III Personal Flotation Device (PFD) for each person on board or being towed on water skis or other recreational equipment. In addition, one throwable Type IV PFD must also be on board. As the owner, obtaining the appropriate PFDs is your responsibility. Your Supra dealer can and will be happy to assist you.

NOTE: Requirements for coastal waters and inland waters dier. Check with the local authorities for more information.

A smart owner will avoid potential problems on an outing by having additional equipment on board. Normally, this equipment is dependent on the body of water and the length of the trip.

We suggest the following—as a minimum. Your Supra dealer can also assist you with additional recommendations.

Federal law requires certain safety equipment to be onboard at all times. In addition, responsible boaters carry other equipment in case of emergency. Check with the local boating authorities for any additional requirements over and above the federal stipulations.

• An anchor with at least 75 feet of line

• A manual bailing device for removing water

• A combination oar/boat hook

• A day-and-night visual distress signal

• A rst aid kit and manual

• An airway breathing tube

• A waterproof ashlight

• A set of local navigation charts

• Mooring lines and fenders

• Extra engine oil

• A tool kit

• A portable AM/FM radio or weather radio

• VHF hand held marine radio

• Cell Phone

Boating-related accidents are generally caused by the operator’s failure to follow basic safety rules or written precautions. Most accidents can be avoided if the operator is completely familiar with the boat, its operation, and can recognize potentially hazardous situations before an accident occurs.

General Safety Precautions

Failure to adhere to these precautions may result in severe injury or death to you and/or others.

• Improper operation is extremely dangerous. Operators must read and understand all operating manuals supplied with the boat before operation.

• Remain seated at all times while the boat is in motion.

• Never stand or allow passengers to stand while the boat is moving. You or others may be thrown from the boat.

• Children in the bow of the boat should be accompanied by an adult at all times.

• Never operate the boat while under the inuence of alcohol or drugs.

• On-board equipment must always conform to the governing federal, state, and local regulations.

• Gasoline vapors can explode. Before starting engine, open engine box, check engine compartment for gasoline vapors, and operate blower for at least four minutes. Run blower below cruising speed.

• Leaking fuel is a re and explosion hazard. Inspect system regularly. Examine fuel tanks for leaks or corrosion at least annually.

• Never override or modify the engine safety shut-o switch or engine neutral starting safety switch in any way.

• Never remove or modify components of the fuel system in any way except for maintenance by qualied personnel. Tampering with fuel components may cause a hazardous condition.

• Never allow any type of spark or open ame on board. It may result in re or explosion.

• It is the owner’s responsibility to check tightness of the tower bolts BEFORE each use.

• The tower is designed to pull a single (1) individual. DO NOT climb or sit on the tower. Rope may loop on inverted tricks. DO NOT sit behind the pulling point of the tower.

• Comply with the capacity limits stated on the capacity warning label in the boat.

General Safety Precautions (continued)

• The tow bar is not designed for vertical extensions. Any modications to the tow bar or its mountings may result in damage to the boat and injury to the user.

• The tower may strike low objects. Check clearance height around docks, shore, overhanging objects, bridges and power lines.

• Do not pull past 45 degrees of the centerline of the boat. Failure to follow this rule could result in the boat capsizing.

• It is the driver’s responsibility to ensure all passengers are seated when the boat is underway.

Failure to adhere to these warnings may result in severe injury or death to you and/or others.

• This boat is a high-performance boat and capable of quick and tight turns and changes in direction. It is the driver’s responsibility to operate the boat in a manner to ensure the safety of all passengers.

Boaters must continuously be aware of weather conditions.

• Sudden storms, wind, lightning, etc., can unexpectedly put boaters in grave danger. Always check the local weather report before going boating.

It is the driver’s responsibility to determine if weather or other factors have created an unsafe boating environment.

• To avoid serious personal injury, DO NOT be on or about the swim platform while engine is running and keep away from rear of boat while engine is running.

• To avoid serious personal injury, DO NOT operate engine while anyone is on or about the swim platform or in the water near the boat.

The driver is solely responsible for the consequences of their actions.

Water Sports Safety

Carbon Monoxide (CO) Safety (continued)

Riders are obligated to be as aware of the fundamental safety rules as well as the boat operator. If you are new to towed water sports, seek certied training before starting. You will nd it especially helpful to join a local ski club and USA Waterski when possible.

Always remember that the majority of water sports injuries are the result of impacts with other objects, so always look where you are going and be aware of what is going on around you.

Failure to adhere to these warnings may result in severe injury or death to you and/or others.

• Every skier must always wear a USCG-approved personal otation device.

• Maintain a distance of at least 100 feet from all other objects, including other boats, piers, rafts, mooring and navigational buoys, pilings, abutments, or any other items.

• Always have an experienced driver and observer in the boat when skiing.

• Never ski in shallow water, close to shore, or in water where you do not know the depth or what is beneath the surface.

• Never put your arm, head, or any other part of your body through the handle-bridle of the ski line nor wrap the line around any part of the body at any time.

• Never ski at night, or directly in front of other boats.

• Never jump from a boat that is moving at any speed, nor enter or exit the water when the engine is running (ON).

• Make sure that everyone knows and uses approved skiing hand signals and common skiing courtesy.

Carbon Monoxide (CO) Safety

Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless and tasteless gas. It is produced by gasoline engines and is a component of exhaust fumes.

Product Misuse

Misuse of the product or use of it in a manner for which it was never intended can create dangerous situations. The driver and passengers are responsible for using the product safely and as intended. The driver must operate the boat in a manner that ensures the safety of all passengers. If you or your passengers are unsure about use of the product, about performing certain boating maneuvers or are unsure about a particular water activity, refer to this manual or contact a knowledgeable source such as your local dealer, Skier’s Choice, Inc., the US Coast Guard, or your local boating authority.

Capacity and Weighting Your Boat

Do not exceed the capacity warning label axed to the boat in the helm area. The capacity limit is shown in the number of people and weight limit in pounds. The combined weight of people and gear must be considered when loading the boat. Factory ballast and fuel have been considered in the capacity limit and do not need to be added to the people and gear weight. Ballast weight above factory installed equipment must

be calculated into the total weight of people and gear.

Although water intrusion and waves spilling inside a boat is an obvious boating hazard, this hazard can increase when weighting your boat for water sports such as wakeboarding or wakesurng. Do not overweight the boat or exceed boat capacity. Use good judgment when using unbalanced weight in your boat. Concentrating weight in a rear corner of the boat for wakesurng puts the top of the deck closer to water level. Backwash, large waves and choppy water are more likely to swamp the boat in this situation.

Shut o the engine when people are on the swim platform or in the water around the rear of the boat.

Do not do any other activities which puts people in close proximity of the transom when the engine is running.

For the most current information on carbon monoxide, you may call, write or visit on-line any of the following:

United States Coast Guard

Oce of Boating Safety (CG-5422) 2100 Second Street SW STOP 7581, Washington, DC 20593-7581 1-800-368-5647 www.uscgboating.org

— 8

When loading your boat give separate attention to the bow area. Excess and unevenly distributed weight in the bow of the boat can create a water inux hazard, unstable steering conditions, and even loss of control. Driver visibility can be reduced if the bow is overloaded or unevenly weighted.

Excess and improper loading of bow area forward of windshield may cause water inux, operating instability, and loss of control resulting in injury or death. Bow Capacity Limit - Refer to seating capacities in this manual

Use good judgment when weighting your boat for any towed water sports. Educate yourself on the proper responses for the differing and potentially unsafe conditions you could encounter.

Page 10

Proper Seating

Proper seating is an important element of boating safety. Proper seating consists of sitting with your buttocks in full contact with a seat cushion within easy reach of a suitable handhold or grab rail anytime the boat is underway. Handholds and grab rails should be used to secure oneself and prevent loss of balance. Do not sit in locations not designed as a seat. For instance, do not sit on seat backs, do not sit on the sides or gunwale of the boat, and do not sit on the sundeck while the boat is in motion. See examples below of proper sitting positions.

Convertible Rear Seat

Some Supra models are equipped with a convertible rear seat. The rear seat lifts from the back, hinges forward, and can be used for a cockpit table. Lift the table forward and it becomes a rear facing seat.

The convertible rear seat back does not lock into place. It is not intended as support. Do not lean on or use as a brace in case of sudden change in direction.

Coast Guard Regulations

The United States Coast Guard boating regulations prescribe minimum standards of safety to be met and maintained by all watercraft. It is necessary that your boat remain in compliance with these regulations.

The staff at Skier’s Choice, Inc. recommend that all boat operators complete a Coast Guard approved boating safety course.

The driver must be aware of all passenger’s locations and positions, and passengers must stay alert to changes in direction.

The boat is capable of quick and tight turns. Such maneuvers can cause unseated occupants to be thrown around or out of the boat. Alert passengers before changes in direction.

Maximum Capacities

In compliance with United States Coast Guard Regulations, Supra Boats meet or exceed all safety standards designed for recreational boats. To ensure safe handling and performance, each Supra boat displays a maximum capacity sticker (see sample), stating the maximum total weight load allowable.

NOTICE: Refer to the Maximum Capacity Sticker on your boat for allowable loading.

Do not exceed the maximum capacity of the boat.

Contact Information

Typical Warning Label Locations V-Drive Models

Warning labels are placed on your boat to alert you to potential hazards that may not be obvious. They also tell you how to avoid the hazard. Warning labels should never be removed and, if any label is damaged, it should be replaced as soon as possible.

Warning Plates & Labels

Read and note ALL warning plates and labels from bow to stern that appear on the boat, including these.

If your warning decals should become damaged in any way, please contact your Moomba Dealer or write Skier’s Choice, Inc. to request replacement warning decals. The decals will be provided free of charge. Your boat’s serial number (located on the transom) must be included for warning decal requests.

Section 3

Emergency Procedures

The time to think about emergencies is before they happen. Plan ahead. Know what to do before you encounter any of these situations. Wear a PFD (Personal Flotation Device) when

boating.

Explosion & Fire

EXPLOSION/FIRE/ASPHYXIATION HAZARD

• Open ame cooking appliances consume oxygen. This can

cause asphyxiation or death.

• Maintain open ventilation.

• Liquid fuel may ignite, causing severe burns.

• Use fuel appropriate for type of stove.

• Turn o stove burner before lling.

• Do not use stove for comfort heating.

FIRE/ASPHYXIATION HAZARD - Use special care with ames or high temperatures near urethane foam, if used in construction of your boat. Burning, welding, lights, cigarettes, space heaters and the like can ignite urethane foam. Once ignited, it burns rapidly, producing extreme heat, releasing hazardous gases and consuming much oxygen.

Explosion

• If explosion is imminent, put on PFDs, grab distress signals

and survival gear, and immediately abandon ship.

Abandoning Ship

BURN HAZARD

Swim against the current or wind if you abandon ship. Leaking fuel will oat with the current and may ignite.

• When clear of danger, account for all who were on board, and help those in need.

• Use distress signal.

• Keep everyone together to make rescue easier.

Flooding, Swamping or Capsizing

• STAY WITH THE BOAT! A boat will usually oat even if there is major hull damage. Rescuers can spot a boat much easier than a head bobbing in the water.

• Signal for help.

Collision

• Account for everyone on board.

• Check for injuries.

• Inspect structural damage.

• Reduce ooding.

• Signal for help.

• STAY WITH THE BOAT!

Fire

• Turn o engines, generators, stoves and blowers. Extinguish smoking materials.

• Fixed fire suppression system, if equipped, has heat sensors that automatically flood machinery space with a fire extinguishant. Allow extinguishant to “soak” compartment for at least 15 minutes to cool hot metals or fuel before cautiously inspecting re area. Have portable re extinguishers ready. Do not breathe fumes or vapors caused by the re or extinguishant.

• If no xed reghting system is installed and re is in engine compartment, discharge portable re extinguishers through the transmission cover which is typically located under the rear seat. Do not open engine hatch as this feeds oxygen to the re.

• If you have access to re, direct contents of extinguishers at base of ames, not at the top.

• Throw burning materials overboard if possible.

• Move anyone not needed for reghting operations away from the ames.

• Signal for help.

• Put on PFDs, grab distress signals and survival gear, and prepare to abandon ship.

Grounding

Action depends on how hard the boat hits bottom and whether the boat remains stranded. If it is a simple touch, you may need only to inspect the hull. If you are aground, assess the situation before reacting. In some cases, throwing the boat into reverse can cause more damage.

Basic Guidelines

• Inspect damage to hull, propulsion and steering systems.

• Check for leaks. If water is coming in, stopping the ow takes priority over getting free.

• Determine water depth all around the boat and type of bottom (sand, mud, rocks, etc.). This will help you decide which way to move the boat.

• Determine if tide, wind or current will drive the boat harder aground or will help free it.

— 12

Page 14

Leaks

Both Vessels

• Immediately switch on bilge pumps.

• Assign crew to operate manual pumps, if needed.

• If boat is taking on water, have someone take the helm while you manage damage control.

• Slow or stop to minimize inow. However, if you can keep a hole above water by maintaining speed, do so.

• If possible, patch the outside with whatever material is available.

Towing

PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD Towing or being towed stresses the boats, hardware and lines. Failure of any part can seriously injure people or damage the boat.

A recreational boat towing another is usually a last resort because of possible damage to one or both boats. The Coast Guard or a private salvage company is better equipped. A recreational boat may assist by standing by, and possibly keeping the disabled boat’s bow at a proper angle until help arrives. Only when conditions are ideal—that is, waters are calm, disabled boat is small, and one or both skippers know correct technique—should a recreational boat tow another.

Towing Vessel

• Be sure your boat will not run aground too.

• Because you are maneuverable and the grounded boat is not, you should pass the towline to the grounded boat.

• Use double-braided or braid-on-braid line. Never use threestrand twisted nylon; it has too much elasticity and can snap back dangerously.

• Fasten the towline as far forward as possible on the upwind or up-current side of the towing boat.

• Fastening it to the stern will restrict maneuverability of the towing boat.

• If possible, use a bridle.

• Move slowly to prevent sudden strain on slack line.

• Be ready to cast loose or cut the line if the towing situation becomes hazardous.

Vessel Being Towed

• If you attach the towline to a tting, be sure the tting is fastened with a through bolt and is reinforced on the underside.

• Creating a bridle with a line around the hull or superstructure will distribute the load over a wide area; pad pressure points. This technique can be used on both the towing and towed boat.

• Keep lines clear of propellers on both boats.

• Keep hands and feet clear of the other boat.

• Never hold a towline after it is pulled taut.

Person Overboard

• Immediately sound an alarm and keep pointing to the person overboard.

• Throw a life preserver even if the person is wearing a PFD. It will serve as a marker.

• Immediately stop or slow the boat, then circle toward the victim.

• Keep person overboard on helm side so operator has the person constantly in sight.

• Approach from downwind and move alongside into the wind for pickup.

• When almost alongside, stop the engine in gear to prevent dangerous propeller “windmilling.”

• As part of your emergency plan, consider what to do if you were alone and fell overboard (e.g., wear PFD, keep signal device in PFD, attach emergency stop switch lanyard to yourself).

Drowning

• Swim to rescue a drowning victim only as a last resort.

• Immediate resuscitation is critical! At least two people on board should be certied in CPR.

• Keep the victim warm.

• Use care in handling. Spinal injury may exist if the victim fell overboard.

• Signal for help.

Medical Emergency

• Attach the towline to the bow eye.

• If the boat has eyebolts in the transom for pulling skiers, a towline may be attached to a small bridle hooked to both eyebolts.

• If it is necessary to be towed after being freed, keep someone at the wheel to steer.

• In an emergency, you may be far from professional medical assistance. Be prepared. Take a rst aid course, and carry a rst aid kit. Be aware of special conditions that may aect anyone on board.

Carbon Monoxide

Distress Signals

Carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless, extremely toxic gas. Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning are dizziness, ears ringing, headaches, nausea and unconsciousness. A poisoning victim’s skin often turns cherry red.

Have the victim breathe fresh air deeply. If breathing stops, resuscitate. A victim often revives, then relapses because organs are damaged by lack of oxygen. Seek immediate medical attention.

Propulsion, Control or Steering Failure

• Shut o engine.

• Put out an anchor to prevent drifting.

• Determine if you can x the problem yourself. See engine operator’s manual if engine is ooded.

• Signal for help.

Radio Communication

Radio is the boat operator’s main method of receiving safety information and summoning aid. VHF-FM radio is the primary means of short-range communication. Single sideband radio (SSB) is used for longer range communication.

VHF-FM Channel 16 and SSB 2182 kHz are designated for emergency use. Such situations can be categorized as:

• Emergency — “M AY D AY, MAYDAY, M AYDAY” — Used when a life or vessel is in imminent danger.

• Urgency — “PAN-PAN, PAN-PAN, PAN-PAN” (pronounced PAHN-PAHN) — Used when a person or vessel is in some jeopardy less than indicated by a Mayday call.

• Safety — “SECURITY, SECURITY, SECURITY” (pronounced SAY-CURE-IT-TAY ) — Used for navigational safety or weather warning.

An emergency situation will be hectic and there will not be time to learn proper radio procedure. LEARN WHAT TO DO

BEFORE YOU NEED TO DO IT.

Consult your national boating law enforcement agency.

Visual Distress Signals

• U.S. Coast Guard regulations require boats in coastal waters and the Great Lakes to carry visual distress signals for day or night use, as appropriate for the time of operation. Exempt from the day signals requirement, but not night signals, are boats less than 4.8 meters (16 feet), open sailboats less than

7.9 meters (26 feet), boats participating in organized events, and manually propelled boats.

• If you are required to have visual distress signals, at least three safety-approved pyrotechnic devices in serviceable condition must be readily accessible. They must be marked with a date showing the service life, which must not be expired.

• Carry three signals for day use and three signals for night use. Some pyrotechnic signals, such as red ares, meet both day and night use requirements.

• Store pyrotechnic signals in a cool, dry location. An orange or red watertight container prominently marked “Distress Signals” is recommended.

Other recognized visual distress signals include:

• Flames in a bucket

• Code ags November and Charlie

• Square ag and ball

• Black square and ball on orange background ag

• Orange ag (certied)

• Electric distress light (certied) - for night use only.

• Dye marker (any color)

• Person waving arms

• U.S. ensign own upside down

Audible Distress Signals

U.S. Coast Guard regulations require one hand, mouth or poweroperated whistle or horn, audible for at least a half mile.

If you hear a distress call, stop all radio transmissions. If you can directly assist, respond on the emergency frequency. If you cannot assist, do not transmit on that frequency. However, continue to monitor until it is obvious that help is being provided.

— 14

Other recognized audible distress signals include:

• Radio communication (see Emergency Procedures - Radio

Procedures - Radio Communication)

• Radio-telegraph alarm

• Position indicating radio beacon

• Morse Code SOS (3 short, 3 long, 3 short) sounded by any means

• Fog horn sounded continuously

Boating Rules

Basic Boating Rules

You should be aware of these rules and follow them whenever you encounter another vessel on the water.

The rules presented in this manual are condensed and have been provided as a convenience only. Consult your local U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary (USCGA) or Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) for a complete set of rules governing the waters in which you will be using your boat. If you plan to travel—even for a short trip—you would be well served to contact the regional USCGA or DMV in the area where you will be boating.

Review and understand all local and state laws.

Any time two vessels on the water meet one another, one vessel has the right-of-way. It is called the stand-on vessel. The vessel which does NOT have the right-of-way is called the give-way or burdened vessel.

These rules determine which vessel has the right-of-way, and accordingly, what each vessel should do.

The vessel with the right-of-way has the duty to continue its course and speed, except to avoid an immediate collision. When you maintain your direction and speed, the other vessel will be able to determine how best to avoid you.

Encountering Other Vessels

There are three main situations in which you may encounter other vessels and you must observe the Steering Rules in order to avoid a collision. These are:

• Meeting (you are approaching another vessel head-on)

• Crossing (you are traveling across the other vessel’s path)

• Overtaking (you are passing or being passed by another vessel)

Using the following illustration in which you are the boat in the center, you should give right-of-way to all vessels shown in the white area. In this instance, you are the give-way vessel. All vessels in the shaded area must yield to you as you are the stand-on vessel. Both you and the meeting vessel must alter course to avoid each other.

The vessel which does not have the right-of-way has the duty to take positive and timely action to stay out of the way of the stand-on vessel. Normally, the give-way vessel should not cross in front of the stand-on vessel. Slow down or change directions briey and pass behind the other vessel. You should always move in such a way that the stand-on operator can see what you are doing.

This rule is called Rule 2 in the International Rules and says, “In obeying and construing these rules due regard shall be had to all dangers of navigation and collision, and to any special circumstances, which may render a departure from the above rules necessary in order to avoid immediate danger.”

If you are meeting another power vessel head-on, and you are close enough to run the risk of collision, neither of you has the right-of-way. Both of you should alter course to avoid an accident. You should keep the other vessel on your port (left) side. This rule doesn’t apply if both of you can clear each other by continuing your set course and speed.

15 —

Page 17

When two power-driven vessels are crossing each other’s path close enough to run the risk of collision, the vessel that views the crossing vessel to the starboard (right) side must give-way.

All vessels which are fishing with nets, lines or trawls are considered under International Rules to be shing vessels. Boats with trolling lines are not considered shing vessels.

If the other vessel is to the port (left) side, maintain your course and direction, provided the other vessel gives you the right-ofway as it should.

If you are passing another vessel, you are the give-way vessel. This means that the other vessel is expected to maintain its course and speed. You must stay out of its way as you clear it, altering course and speed as necessary.

Conversely, if you are being passed by another vessel, you should maintain your speed and direction so that the other vessel can steer itself around you.

There are three other rules to always remember when driving your boat around other vessels.

When navigating in narrow channels, you should keep to the right when it is safe and practical to do so. If the operator of a power-driven vessel is preparing to go around a bend that may obstruct the view of other water vessels, the operator should sound a prolonged blast on the whistle or horn—four to six seconds.

If another vessel is around the bend, it too should sound the whistle or horn. Even if no reply is heard, however, the vessel should still proceed around the bend with caution.

If you navigate these type of waters, you should carry a portable air horn, which are available from local marine supply stores.

Fishing vessels have the right-of-way, regardless of position. These vessels, however, cannot impede the passage of other vessels in narrow channels.

Sailing vessels should normally be given the right-of-way. The exceptions to this are:

• When the sailing vessel is overtaking the power-driven vessel, the power-driven vessel has the right-of-way.

• Sailing vessels should keep clear of any shing vessel.

• In a narrow channel, a sailing vessel should not hamper the safe passage of a power-driven vessel which can navigate only in such a channel.

The waters of the United States are marked for safe navigation by the lateral system of buoyage. The markers and buoys you will encounter have an arrangement of shapes, colors, numbers and lights to show which side of the buoy a boater should pass when navigating in a particular direction.

The markings on these buoys are oriented from the perspective of being entered from seaward while the boater is going towards the port. This means that red buoys are passed on the starboard (right) side when proceeding from open water into port, and black buoys are to port (left) side. When navigating out of port, your position to the buoys should be reversed: red buoys to port and black buoys to starboard.

Many boating bodies of water are entirely within the boundaries of a single state. The Uniform State Waterway Marking Systems has been devised for these waters. This system uses buoys and signs with distinctive shapes and colors to show regulatory or advisory information.

These markers are white with black letters and orange borders. The information signies speed zones, restricted areas, danger areas and general information.

Remember: Markings may vary by geographic location. Always consult local boating authorities before driving your boat in unfamiliar waters.

(See examples of buoys and markers next page.)

Section 6

Break-In Period

Break In Period

Taking care to properly break in your new engine will pay o in the long run. In our years of eld testing, we have proven that an Indmar engine, when properly broken in according to our simple procedures, will last longer, run better and have fewer repairs over its lifetime.

Your new engine does not require an elaborate break-in procedure. Just follow these simple instructions and you are o to a great start.

The three (3) most important aspects of new engine break-in are:

1. Avoid running engine at high speeds.

2. Do not carry a heavy load (passengers, gear, etc.).

3. Vary your boat speed during break-in. Don’t run at the same RPM for a long period of time.

BREAK-IN STEPS

• For the rst hour, do not exceed 2,000 RPM.

• For the second hour, do not exceed 3,000 RPM.

• For the next seven hours, do not exceed 4,000 RPM and vary the RPM regularly

NOTES:

BREAK-IN TIPS

• Avoid fast accelerations and don’t carry (or pull) a heavy load during this period.

• Always let engine warm up gradually before acceleration.

• Check oil frequently. During the rst 50 to 100 hours, an engine can use more oil than usual. Maintain oil at a proper level at all times (do not overll).

• Monitor transmission uid levels.

• Report abnormal noises or vibrations to your dealer.

• Keep an eye out for loose mountings, ttings, nuts, bolts, and clamps.

During the BREAK-IN process, engine temperature should be carefully monitored and speed should be reduced if overheating is evident. ALSO, PLEASE REFER TO ENGINE OWNER’S

MANUAL FOR BREAK-IN INFORMATION.

NOTICE: PLEASE REFER TO ENGINE OWNER’S MANUAL for maximum RPM and engine break-in procedure.

Do not exceed maximum RPM recommended for your engine. Exceeding the maximum RPM may result in damage to the engine.

Before starting your engine you must open the engine box and check engine compartment and bilge for gasoline and oil vapors.

— 20

Page 22

Section 7

Starting & Operation

A standard pre-starting procedure should be always be followed before the rst start-up of the day.

1. Check the engine oil level.

2. Check for gasoline fumes in bilge or engine compartment.

3. Operate engine blower for 4 minutes before starting the engine to remove any fumes.

4. Check manual and automatic operation of bilge pump. Make sure bilge areas are empty.

Other items might also be inspected, depending on the boat and its use. It is advisable to formulate a check list particular to the equipment and operation of your boat.

REFER TO THE BOATMAN’S CHECKLIST OF THIS MANUAL.

Consult the local Coast Guard Auxiliary or Power Squadron for full details on boating safety.

NOTE: Add-on electrical accessories should never be connected to the ignition terminal or ignition circuit.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT continue to operate the starter for more than 15 seconds at a time without pausing to allow the starter motor to cool down for at least 2 minutes. This will also allow the battery to recover between starting attempts. PLEASE REFER TO ENGINE OWNER’S MANUAL FOR ADDITIONAL DETAILS.

BEFORE STARTING ENGINE, BE SURE THAT THE SHIFT SELECTOR IS IN NEUTRAL. The correct starting procedure depends upon the type of engine. Please refer to the engine manual before starting.

Do not start engine if gas fumes are present.

To Start Electronic Fuel Injection

(EFI) Engine

1. Place shift selector in Neutral with the throttle in the upright (zero) position. (If throttle is not in the idle position, the throttle position sensor will not allow the engine computer to proceed with a normal starting procedure).

2. Turn Ignition Key to Start Position to operate the starter.

3. Release the Key when engine starts (key will return to run position).

4. Allow the engine to establish a good idle (30 to 60 seconds) before getting underway.

5. Shift slowly into forward or reverse, allowing the transmission time to engage before powering up.

NOTE: Should the EFI engine become “ooded” use the following procedure to start:

1. Place shift selector in Neutral and disengage the transmission by pushing the transmission lockout button located at the bottom of the lever.

2. With the transmission disengaged, push the lever forward to full throttle position. (This will cause the computer to shut o the fuel injectors, which will allow the engine to clear of excess fuel during starting).

3. Turn the Ignition Key to Start Position and operate the starter for no more than 15 seconds at a time, until the engine starts.

4. When the engine starts, back o the throttle and allow the engine to establish a good idle (30 to 60 seconds).

NOTE: It is normal for the idle to speed up in cold start conditions.

5. Return the throttle to idle position and the transmission lockout will automatically reengage the transmission in neutral position.

6. When ready to get underway, shift slowly into forward

DO NOT continue to operate the starter for more than 15 seconds at a time without pausing to allow the starter motor to

or reverse, allowing the transmission time to engage the gearing before powering up.

cool down for at least 2 minutes. This will also allow the battery to recover between starting attempts. PLEASE REFER TO ENGINE

Engine Warm-Up

OWNER’S MANUAL FOR ADDITIONAL DETAILS.

Always let engine warm up to normal operating temperature before accelerating.

Page 23

Fuel Precautions

Use a gasoline with a minimum octane rating of 89. The Supercharged engine should use a minimum octane rating of

93. See engine owner’s manual for more information.

DO NOT use gasoline containing methyl alcohol (methanol). Methanol can damage your boat’s fuel system.

Fuel Precautions

Sparks while fueling could cause an explosion!

Before Fueling:

1. Turn o engine.

2. Turn o all electrical systems.

3. Extinguish cigarettes or any open ame.

While Fueling:

1. Keep fuel hose nozzle in contact with ll pipe to provide grounding.

2. Fill tank at a slow rate to avoid spills.

Gasoline Stabilizer should be added to the fuel tank when the boat is used infrequently or whenever your boat will not be used for two weeks or more. During storage, always add Gasoline Stabilizer to reduce gumming or tank sludge.

E-10 fuels require fuel stabilizers that are specifically designed for E-10 fuels to help prevent moisture absorption, phase separation and gasoline stabilization.

E15 FUEL WARNING

• DO NOT USE E15 FUELS! E15 fuel WILL damage your engine and it will not operate.

• THIS DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED BY ANY WARRANTY

Filling the Tank

Be especially careful when lling the fuel tank. DO NOT over ll the tank. Fuel may empty through the fuel vent and damage to nishes could result.

Fuel Vent

The fuel cap is located on the rear deck, 2-4 feet from the stern. To open, push the black tab located on the bottom side of thegas cap. When the black tab is pushed, the gas cap will hinge upward. To close, push the gas cap down. When the gas cap is completely closed a “click” sound should be heard. The audible “click” ensures that the gas cap is closed and sealed.

The new fueling system prevents spillage from occurring. Air is allowed to escape from the front and rear of the gas tank. Both vents are on a central fuel line, which runs to a central holding container for the vapor. The vapor is released over time. This type of venting system allows for the tank to be ﬁlled without building any back pressure. Without back pressure, spillage should be completely eliminated from the fueling process.

This venting system doesn’t allow water to enter the fuel system. In the unlikely event that water runs up against the fuel vent, the fuel vent has a one-way valve. The one way valve allows for air to release, but denies water from entering. The gas cap itself is sealed with a rubber seal. When the gas cap is “clicked” closed the seal prevents any water from entering the system.

If fuel is spilled on stripes or decals, apply a common bath cleaner (nonabrasive) and wipe with a damp cloth. Rinse the spill area with clean water.

— 22

Page 24

Your boat contains a fuel system that is designed using current fuel delivery technology. The common terminology for this type of system is: Pump in Tank.

The system consists of a dual high pressure pump canister that is mounted inside the fuel tank. On the top of the canister there is a fuel pressure regulator. The engine’s fuel lines are connected to the in tank fuel pump via a specially designed shielded, exible high pressure fuel hose. This hose is pressurized. This system requires special tools and knowledge to service and maintain and as such is not owner serviceable.

The fuel lter for the boat’s fuel delivery system is in the fuel tank. This style lter system is considered a lifetime lter under normal circumstances.

The pump in tank fuel delivery system uses the fuel to lubricate and cool the fuel pumps. Running the pumps with very low fuel levels or running the pumps without fuel in the tank can induce air into the pumps which may shorten the fuel pump’s longevity. This type of fuel pump damage is not warrantable.

Center Drain PlugFuel Tank Pump

On V-drive models the center drain plug is accessed via the access cover in the center oor panel.

It is extremely important that the drain plug is always checked before starting the engine. The drain plug should be secured in place using a wrench.

DO NOT start engine until center drain plug is checked and secured in place.

Rear Drain Plug

The rear drain plug is located at the back of the boat, near the bottom of the transom (See photo). It is extremely important that the drain plug is always checked before starting the engine. The drain plug should be secured in place using a wrench.

DO NOT start the engine until the drain plug is checked and secured in place.

DO NOT try to install the drain plug while the engine is running.

The following USCG information is important to your safety and safe operation of the boat:

”THIS BOAT COMPLIES WITH U.S. COAST GUARD SAFETY STANDARDS IN EFFECT ON THE DATE OF CERTIFICATION WITH THE EXCEPTION OF CERTAIN FUEL SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS ASSOCIATED WITH ITS FUEL INJECTED ENGINE AS AUTHORIZED BY U.S. COAST GUARD GRANT OF EXEMPTION (CGB 09-003). MAINTENANCE OF THE FUEL SYSTEM IN THIS BOAT SHOULD BE PERFORMED ONLY BY EXPERIENCED TECHNICIANS USING IDENTICAL FUEL SYSTEM COMPONENTS.”

“SERVICE OF THE ENGINE INSTALLED IN THIS BOAT REQUIRES SPECIAL TOOLS, TRAINING AND GENUINE REPLACEMENT PARTS WHICH ARE ONLY AVAILABLE FROM SKIER’S CHOICE, INC. THE FUEL SYSTEM SHOULD BE SERVICED ONLY BY A SKIER’S CHOICE TRAINED CERTIFIED TECHNICIAN. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SERVICE THE SYSTEM YOURSELF.”

— 23

Page 25

Throttle Lever

The throttle lever controls both the throttle and the transmission. The idle position (normally vertical) is the zero throttle position and the neutral position for the transmission. A safety ring (umbrella) keeps the lever from being accidentally moved to engage the transmission. To place the transmission into gear, with your hand placed over the lever ball, pull up on the safety ring (umbrella) and slowly push the lever into forward gear or slowly pull the lever back into reverse gear.

Never shift the lever directly from the neutral (vertical) position into a speed position.

• To prevent damage to the transmission, always allow the transmission time to engage before accelerating the engine.

• Once the transmission’s engaged, you may accelerate as quickly as you like.

Optional Water Strainer

The optional engine water strainer is a lter for the engine cooling water. It is recommended for boats that are going to be operated in weedy conditions or other areas where debris could clog the engine. It consists of a stainless steel mesh lter inside a clear cup. It is located between the water intake on the bottom of the boat and the engine’s raw water pump. It should be checked periodically for debris as conditions dictate. To remove debris, unscrew the clear sight cup, remove the o-ring and stainless steel mesh lter and proceed to rinse out the cup. Be sure to reinstall the mesh lter and o-ring before reattaching the sight cup to the inlet.

Optional Water Strainer & Fresh Water Flush

Transmission Lockout

The Transmission Lockout button allows the transmission to be disengaged while giving the throttle full operating range. With the lever in the idle position (normally vertical), push the button located at the bottom of the lever to disengage the transmission. The throttle may then be operated in any open position (forward of neutral or back of neutral upright position). Return the throttle to idle position, and the transmission lockout will automatically reengage the transmission in neutral position.

— 24

The optional Fresh Water Flush kit is a valve specifically designed to allow you to attach a garden hose to your engine water intake to ush brackish or salt water out of your engine. To use the Fresh Water Flush, simply attach a garden hose to the valve. Turn on the water to the valve. Start the engine. Monitor the exhaust ports on the transom of your boat and engine temperature gauge. Water should come out of the exhaust ports while the engine is running. It is recommended that you run the engine at a low RPM while ushing, since the engine’s raw water pump at higher RPMs can pump more water than the garden hose can supply. If you have questions on the operation of your Fresh Water Flush kit, consult your Supra Dealer.

Tachometer

Speedometer

The tachometer indicates the engine revolutions per minute (RPM).

The speedometer indicates the water speed of the boat in miles per hour. It is recommended that the speedometer be checked

for accuracy periodically. DO NOT exceed the recommended RPM during break-in and normal operation of your motor. Exceeding the manufacturer’s suggested RPM may cause damage to the engine.

Engine Data Displayed on VISION Center Main Page

Oil Pressure Display

The oil pressure display indicates the oil pressure in the engine while the engine is running. If the oil pressure remains below the normal range of 10 to 80 psi, stop the engine immediately. If engine is allowed to run while oil pressure is too low, permanent engine damage may occur.

Running the engine with low oil pressure may cause severe engine damage.

Coolant Temperature Display

The temperature display indicates the engine coolant temperature while the coolant is circulating inside the engine. Engine operating temperatures will vary depending on the weather conditions and engine load. Normal operating temp range is between 160 degrees and 180 degrees.

NOTICE: Refer to your Engine Owner’s Manual for additional details.

Damage from overheating an engine IS NOT warrantable.

Voltage Display

The voltage displayed indicates the battery voltage when the engine is running or the battery voltage when the engine is stopped. The voltmeter should indicate a voltage between 13 and 16 volts when the engine is running. The electronics in Supra boats are designed to operate with batteries that have 10.8 volts or higher. Components will not work properly if battery voltage is below

10.8 volts.

Speedometer Paddle Wheel

The Speedometer pickup is a paddle wheel located on the bottom of the boat. Poor water conditions may cause the wheel to become clogged or give incorrect information.

Fuel Gauge

Trim Gauge

The Fuel Gauge, located on the Tachometer, indicates the amount of fuel remaining in the fuel tank.

This gauge indicates the approximate quantity of fuel remaining in the tank when the ignition is in the “ON” position.

NOTICE: DO NOT run the tank to empty. To prevent condensation from forming in the tank, it is recommended that the tank be lled when the gauge indicates 1/4 tank of fuel remaining.

The following conditions may be considered normal operation of the fuel gauge and fuel system:

• Gas station pumps may shut off before the fuel gauge indicates FULL.

• The amount of fuel required for fill-up may not exactly correspond to the gauge.

• The gauge needle may not move away from FULL until some time after ll-up.

• The gauge needle may move around when boat is in motion.

NOTICE: Become familiar with engine hourly fuel consumption at various speeds and know when to check the fuel gauge.

The Trim Gauge, located on the Speedometer, indicates the position of the Wake Plate.

Ignition Switch

Located on the port side of the dashboard, the ignition switch has four positions. In the vertical position the ignition is “OFF”. In the OFF position, only the blower and bilge switches are powered.

One position counterclockwise is the “ACC” position. This will power the dash switches.

Blower Switch

The blower switch activates the blower motor. The primary function of the blower fan is to remove any fumes from the bilge area. The blower also draws fresh air into the engine compartment.

Never depend solely on the blower to eliminate dangerous fumes. Before starting the engine, always open the motor box to check if fumes are present. Switch on the blower fan a minimum of four minutes before starting the engine.

One position clockwise is the “ON” position and this will power the switches and energize the motor.

The full clockwise position is the “START” position.

NOTE: All electrical equipment should be turned o when the boat is in storage.

Horn Button

The Horn Switch is located on the starboard switch panel. Sound the horn by depressing the button.

NOTICE: If the blower fails to operate, reset the circuit breaker. If the blower still does not operate, notify your Supra dealer.

Liquid Lead Ballast System

The Liquid Lead* Ballast System in your boat is an electronically controlled ballast system that can be operated from the driver’s seat. The system can be controlled by using the ballast switches or through the Supra Vision Dash. The Supra Vision Dash allows for stored preset ballast levels (see “User Preset Screen” in the Vision System section of this Owner’s Manual) for easy rider setup. The manual switches for this three position system are located in the switch panel directly below the shifter mechanism.

The Ballast System in your boat is an integrated and logically controlled system. At the heart of the system is a series of reversible pumps that use impellers to pump water in and out of the ballast system. The controller for the system runs the pumps an appropriate amount of time to ll and to empty the bags.

When bags begin to vent, shut o!

Do Not overll ballast bags!

*Liquid Lead is a marketing name. Supra Boats do not contain lead ballast

Filling the System-In normal operation of the system, ipping one of the switches to “Fill” will start the system lling the associated ballast. The ballast gauge on the Supra Vision system will turn green. The pump will automatically turn o when the appropriate amount of time to ll the system has been reached. The light on the switch will still be luminated as it is in the “Fill” position, but the pump will not be running. The ballast gauge on the Supra Vision system will turn yellow. The switch should be turned back to the “o” position when the pump stops running.

Ballast Pump Impellers- The pumps that ll and drain the ballast system use an impeller. Your Supra ballast impeller uses the latest polymer technology in an eort to have the longest service life possible. The impellers are a wear item and dierent use patterns, water types, debris, etc. can greatly aect the service length of the impeller. As the impellers wear, the amount of water that is pumped into and out of the ballast system is reduced. The Vision System does have provision for adjusting ll and empty times to accommodate decreased eciency due to impeller wear or changing to dierence sized bags (See Vision Dash “System Settings” For more info). Running the pumps without water will greatly accelerate the wear and prolonged running of the pumps without water will damage the impeller to the point that they will require immediate replacement.

Note: Impellers are a wear item and not covered by warranty. Ballast System Utilities- It is not recommended to change any of the ballast conguration that are found under the” Utilities” menu on the Vision Dash unless specically directed to do so by your Authorized Supra dealer. Changing these values may negatively aect the ballast system or may make the system fail to work all together.

Emptying the System-In normal operation of the system, ipping one of the switches to “Empty” will start the system emptying the associated ballast. The ballast gauge on the Supra Vision system will turn green. The pump will automatically turn o when the appropriate amount of time to empty the system has been reached. The light on the switch will still be luminated as it is in the “Empty ” position, but the pump will not be running. The ballast gauge on the Supra Vision system will show empty. The switch should be turned back to the “o” position when the pump stops running.

Ballast Trouble Shooting Guide

Swell Surf & Screen

The Swell Surf System utilizes high-speed rams to adjust 5/16inch stainless steel blades laser cut and bent to control water turbulence off the rear of the boat’s running surface. The specially designed trailing edge of these blades, or aps as these types of elements are referred to in a uid dynamics, create a vortex-eect behind the boat resulting in specic wave shapes. Dierent angels of deployment of the blades create custom eects in the water turbulence to swell-up surf waves. Swell blades benet from a shot peen nish, a strengthening process commonly utilized in aeronautical construction, to increase the fatigue life of the piece. The Swell System is mounted and held together by a series of stainless steel through-bolts and stainless brackets for an extremely stable platform for wave making

Propeller Triple-Up Seating

The research and design team at Skier’s Choice has carefully explored and tested many different propellers and pitch angles for use on our boats. All tests indicate that the current propeller installed on your model is the best for the variety of boating performance required, whether skiing competitively or for pleasure.

It is strongly recommended that your Supra dealer be notied before changing the propeller. In general, changing to a lower pitched propeller may increase acceleration, but will decrease top speed. Changing to a higher pitched propeller may achieve higher top speed with a light load, while acceleration and power may decrease.

Supra boats have “Triple-Up” seating. This unique type of seating can be stored at or ipped up for extra rear facing seating. To use this seating, lift and pull the seat back into the locked position. Be sure that the metal arms are locked straight before applying pressure. To lay seat back down, simply pull the lever section of the metal support arm to release the lock mechanism.

Convertible Rear Seat

The convertible rear seat back does not lock into place. It is not intended as support. Do not lean on or use as a brace in case of sudden change in direction.

Section 10

Service & Maintenance

The illustration above denotes the areas which may need to be accessed or may require cleaning or maintenance. It is important to have basic understanding of the parts and their location on the boat. However, it is recommend that any service beyond routine maintenance be performed by an authorized Supra dealer.

Service & Maintenance

For your convenience, a maintenance schedule has been included in this manual. The items listed outline when to perform safety checks, lubrication and general service to your boat. Engine hours or elapsed time determine when service is necessary.

It is recommended that any replacement parts used during maintenance or for repair be supplied by an authorized Supra dealer.

NOTICE: You are responsible for keeping records of all maintenance on your boat. To maintain your new boat warranty, you may be required to prove that required maintenance was performed.

Battery Box

Battery Cable

Installation & Precautions

The battery is mounted inside the observer’s seat storage compartment. Location may vary slightly depending on the model.

NOTICE: It is recommended that the battery cables be disconnected from the battery when the boat is placed in storage.

Avoid damage or injury from battery acid. Ensure that the battery is properly secured before using boat.

Your battery is an important part of your boat. It provides all the power to start your boat and allows all of your electrical components (bilge pump, blower, stereo, etc.) to work even if the motor is not running.

Because of its important role, Supra recommends using a good quality “Marine Dual Purpose” battery. The “Dual Purpose” rating means that it can provide the cranking Amps needed to start your motor, yet it also has an Amp hour discharge rating so it can handle low electrical drawdown cycle.

Your Supra electrical system is a negative ground type. The negative battery cable is grounded to the engine block. The positive battery cable is connected to the starter solenoid.

Connect the positive (+) battery cable to the positive (+) post on the battery. Connect the negative (-) battery cable to the negative (-) post on the battery.

Failure to connect battery cables as outlined will damage the system and void the warranty.

Sulfuric acid in the battery can cause serious burns. If spilled on skin or in eyes, ush with clean water immediately, then seek medical attention.

Hydrogen and oxygen gases are produced during normal battery operation and charging. Sparks or ames near the battery vent openings can cause the mixture to ignite and explode.

Page 82

Dual Battery (Option) Hookup

To properly hook up the two batteries;

1. Connect the grounding strap provided from the negative (-) post on Battery 1 to the negative (-) post on Battery 2.

2. Connect the negative (-) cable from the grounding buss bar to the negative (-) post on Battery 1.

3. Connect the negative (-) cable from the engine to the negative (-) post on Battery 1.

4. Connect the positive cable from the left side of the battery switch to the positive (+) post on Battery 1.

5. Connect the positive cable from the bottom of the switch to the positive (+) post Battery 2.

Battery 1 is designated as the primary battery and Battery

2 is designated as the secondary battery.

Skier’s Choice installs a 4-position battery switch on any boat equipped with dual batteries. It is recommended that both batteries be fully charged between each use to insure they can deliver the electrical demands required for each outing. The purpose of our recommendation is to utilize one primary battery for all operational needs, and have the other as a backup if the primary battery discharges.

This situation could occur if you run your accessories such as ballast or stereo for a long time, without running the boat. The dual battery setup is designed to create a redundant system allowing the user to have a backup battery. The switch must be in the “1” or “2” position to create the redundancy.

The 4 positions available on the battery switch are: O / 1 / 2 / 1&2. These choices indicate which battery is being used to power the boat and which battery is being charged by the engine’s alternator.

We recommend using only position 1 or 2 while boating.

Battery switch position “1&2” is available but not recommended as power will be drawn from both batteries and the alternator will have diculties keeping both batteries charged simultaneously. It also creates a ground dierentiation which in turn will create issues with sensitive electrical components such as the Vision screen. The only time you may need Position 1 & 2 would be in an emergency situation where both batteries are low and need power from both to help start the engine.

Do not turn the selector switch to the “O ” position when the motor is running. The alternator will be permanently damaged and is not covered under Skier’s Choice or Indmar warranty. It is highly recommended that Position “1” be used in most situations so the secondary battery will be available to start the engine from Battery 2 (secondary) if necessary. Be aware that if position “1&2” is selected, both batteries will drain power at the same time and could leave you stranded due to weak batteries.

NOTE: It is recommended that you fully recharge your batteries using a battery charger periodically or after a period of high discharge (running many accessories for an extended period of time).

NOTE: Skier’s Choice highly recommends using quality “Dual Purpose” batteries.

Fiberglass Care

Washing and waxing the boat hull and deck regularly will extend the life and beauty of your Supra. It is a good routine to rinse your boat with fresh water after each day’s use.

Section 11

Cleaning, Care

& Storage

Upholstery Care

It is recommended that the hull and deck be cleaned and waxed after every 25 hours of use. This will decrease water friction and lesson the potential for staining or spotting on the gelcoat surface.

When the original gelcoat shine cannot be restored by waxing, the shine may be restored by hand bung with a commercial polishing compound. Be sure to apply a new coat of wax containing Carnauba over the area that has been polished.

IMPORTANT: Porcelain cleaning powders are too abrasive for use on gelcoat and may cause permanent discoloration if used. Household detergents containing ammonia or chlorine should not be used on gelcoat. Never use acetone or ketone solvents to clean your boat nish.

Washing Your Boat

The easiest way to preserve the beauty of your boat is to keep it clean by frequent washing. Wash the boat with luke warm or cold water. Wipe the boat down immediately after washing to avoid water spots. Avoid using hot water or washing your boat in direct sunlight. Avoid using strong soaps or chemical detergents. To avoid spotting, all cleaning agents should be thoroughly rinsed from the surface promptly and not allowed to dry on the nish.

All upholstery items on your Supra are made of tough marine grade vinyl that is easily cleaned.

It is important to provide for the drying of all upholstery and carpet after each use of the boat. Open all storage compartments and slide all removable cushions out about an inch to allow air to circulate behind.

Strong detergents and cleaners may shorten the life of the vinyl. PLEASE SEE VINYL MANUFACTURER’S RECOMMENDED CARE GUIDE INCLUDED IN YOUR OWNER’S MANUAL PACKAGE.

FAILURE TO FOLLOW CARE GUIDE MAY VOID VINYL WARRANTY.

Drying Upholstery

Rub Rail Care

Use a sponge or other soft material to wash and wax the rub rail. To wax, use a commercial automotive bumper wax.

NOTICE: When tying up to a dock or another boat, always use cushioned fenders (dock bumpers) to protect your boat from hard surfaces.

Windshield Care

All Supra windshields are constructed of tempered safety glass to ensure passenger safety. The glass surfaces should be cleaned regularly to ensure that visibility is not obstructed.

Use a commercial glass cleaner to remove any spotting or stubborn stains that develop on the windshield. Never use abrasive cleaners on glass surfaces.

Improper drying of your cushions can attract mold spores under

the vinyl which develop pink or blue stains depending on the

type of mold. These stains are not covered under the limited

warranty.

— 82

Page 84

Foreign Deposits

Tree sap, bird droppings, airborne chemicals, petroleum products and other foreign matter may damage the gelcoat surface if not removed promptly (See Washing Instructions).

Boat Hull Protection

If your Supra is to remain in the water for an extended period, the hull below the water line should be painted with a marine bottom paint. Boats left in the water for extended periods of time without bottom paint may experience blistering or discolorization. This type of damage is not covered by your boat’s warranty.

Damage caused by improper care, cleaning agents, conditioner oils, waxes, gasoline, etc., IS NOT covered under your boat’s warranty. Use only the recommended vinyl cleaner as listed on the Vinyl Care Instruction Sheet.

Please refer to www.syntecind.com for more information regarding vinyl care.

NOTES:

Wet Slipping Boats

• In the event of large storms, boats in wet slips are more likely to be damaged.

• If you do not use the boat often, the battery can go dead from pumping out water.

• The boat may develop organic growth which can greatly reduce performance, attack and discolor the gelcoat.*

• The boat may develop osmotic blisters.*

• The boat may get a stain line which cannot be removed.*

* Painting the area below the waterline of the boat with Interlux or Pettit products will reduce the likelihood of these last three.

Winterization

When the boating and ski season comes to a close, it is important to have your boat professionally winterized.

Section 12

Winterization

& Dry Storage

Summerization

If your boat is exposed to temperatures below 32 degrees F (0 degrees C), it is possible for water in the engine, ballast system, heater core, etc., to freeze. As this water freezes, it expands and can crack pumps, valves, heat exchangers, engine blocks, etc. This type of damage usually requires the replacement of the cracked item and can be very expensive to repair.

It is extremely important to follow the proper winterizing procedure. The engine must be correctly winterized for safe storage in your climate. This should be done by a professional. Your Supra dealer will know exac tly what must be done to ensure the longest possible life for your boat.

In addition to having your boat professionally winterized, the following tasks should be done to protect your boat during storage:

1. Remove the drain plug from the boat.

2. Thoroughly clean the boat inside and out. Inspect the hull for any residue or algae growth and remove if required.

3. Clean the bilge area thoroughly and operate the bilge pump to remove any water from the bilge hose.

4. Remove all seat cushions and open all storage areas to air circulation in the boat interior. When thoroughly dry, replace cushions and close storage areas.

5. Top off fuel tank to prevent any condensation from accumulating in the fuel system. Use a commercially available fuel stabilizer to remove water and prevent gumming.

6. If the boat is stored on its trailer, ensure that the boat is properly positioned. If possible, lift the tongue so that the bow is slightly raised to promote drainage from the drain hole.

7. Install the canvas cover and secure the straps in accordance with cover instructions.

Before using the boat after it has been in dry storage requires some special treatment. Supra recommends having your boat professionally summerized, preferably by the same facility that prepped it for storage. They will be familiar with what items were done in the fall and what items need to be addressed in the spring.

In addition to having your boat professionally summerized, the following list of tasks should be done to ensure a successful start to your boating season.

Check Trailer Tire Pressure Bearing Lube Lights

Charge Battery Clean & Wax Gel Coat Clean Interior

Check All Systems Blower Bilge Pump Navigation Lights Interior Lights

When launching the boat for the rst time of the season, carefully watch all gauges to ensure that the boat is not overheating, the alternator is charging and the engine has proper oil pressure.

NOTE: During the winter months, water is a boat’s worst enemy. Always store the boat when the interior is completely dry. Periodically check on the condition of the stored boat.

Damage due to improper winterization IS NOT covered under your boat’s warranty.

E-10 fuels require fuel stabilizers that are specifically designed for E-10 fuels to help prevent moisture absorbtion, phase separation and gasoline stabilization.

Temporary Hoisting

Correct Hoisting

If the boat ever needs to be hoisted, special attention should be given to the following recommendations:

• Hoist the boat using a horizontal lifting bar only.

• Never attempt to lift the boat by means of a cable sling from bow to stern lifting eyes.

• Hoist operator should slowly and smoothly lift the boat without jerking to avoid damage to the lifting eyes.

Incorrect Hoisting

DO NOT use the ski pylon to hoist the boat.

Incorrect hoisting may invalidate the warranty on the boat.

Use only a proper sized sling in the designated lifting rings to hoist the boat.

NOTE: For boat houses, we highly recommend the use of a lifting cradle. Cradle bunk design should mimic the bunk design of the trailer.

Trailering Your Boat

Trailer & Towing

The trailer supplied with your Supra was designed especially for the boat with your convenience in mind. Please be sure that you have an appropriate tow vehicle before attempting to trailer your boat. Your vehicle must be capable of towing 7,000 lbs. and must be tted with no less than a Class III (10,000 lb. max.) trailer hitch.

Read the trailer towing section of your vehicle owner’s manual before towing your trailer.

All Supra trailers require a 2” ball and a seven (7) round marine grade trailer wiring connector. The standard height from the ground to the top of the hitch ball should be about 20 inches. With the trailer attached to the tow vehicle, the trailer should stand approximately level.

Trailer Plug Wire Schematic

White: Ground Green: Right Turn / Brake Yellow: Left Turn / Brake Brown: Running Lights Blue: Reverse Lights

Prolong Trailer Life

The following guidelines will prolong the life of the boat and trailer:

1. Always secure the boat to the trailer with tie-downs. Do not place straps around fenders or lights.

2. Always verify that the winch hook is securely in the bow eye, the strap is tight and the winch handle locked in place before trailering.

3. Check the recommended pressure displayed on the side of the tires and assure that it is maintained. Under-inated tires could cause trailer sway and excessive tire wear.

4. Before use, please read all information supplied with the trailer by the manufacturer (Bearing Buddy and hydraulic brake actuator). Check wheel bearing grease.

5. Check wheel bearing lube.

6. See Trailer Owner’s Manual for Maintenance Schedule.

Inadvertent release of latch pin could result in injury.

1. Raise the tongue with the trailer jack. Position the trailer tongue directly over the 2” ball, and lower the jack until the tongue goes all the way down over the ball.

2. Press down on the latch until it locks on the ball with a “click.”

Trailer Alignment

Correct Alignment

When pulling the boat onto the trailer, be sure that it is centered on the trailer.

Incorrect Alignment

NOTICE: If your hitch ball has an excessive flat spot on top, the latch may not engage properly. If the latch does not catch, check with your dealer or hitch installer before trailering.

3. Insert the locking pin into the tongue. Lock pin hole is on the side of the tongue.

4. When all weight is o the trailer jack, pull the jack lock pin and rotate the jack to the horizontal position and re-lock the pin.

5. Attach the safety cables to the tow vehicle hitch. Cross the cables and wrap them around each other once or possibly twice allowing just enough slack to permit tight turns of the vehicle and trailer.

6. Plug the trailer lights connector to the vehicle harness.

7. Clip the brake lockout cable to the vehicle hitch.

The distance between the boat and the wheel runner board should be equal on both sides.

Unloading Procedure

Loading Procedure

To unload the boat, use the following procedure as a guide:

1. Make sure that all drain plugs are securely in place.

2. Unplug light cord before backing into the water.

3. With Bow Eye Hook fastened, back the trailer until the water level is approximately 1 inch below the top of the trailer fenders. NOTICE: Ramp slopes vary, so actual level of water on trailer may be dierent. (NOTE: Caution on this page!).

4. Follow the cold start procedure recommended in this manual.

5. After starting the engine, remove Bow Eye Hook.

6. With engine idling, center steering wheel, engage transmission and slowly pull throttle into reverse. Ease back on the throttle lever until the boat starts to move.

NOTE: DO NOT attempt to use excessive power to free the boat from dry carpet runners. Power o of the trailer only when the boat has oated free.

If the trailer is not submerged to the correct depth, the bow of the boat could drop when powering o incorrectly, possibly damaging the boat.

To load the boat on the trailer, position the trailer in the water with approximately 1 inch of the top of the fender showing.

1. Idle/coast the boat onto the trailer using as little power as possible, while keeping it centered between the guide poles.

2. Power slowly forward until the bow eye roller contacts.

3. Winch hook must be attached to bow eye and tightened before trailering.

DO NOT Power onto the trailer during rough conditions! Once correctly positioned on the trailer, switch off ignition.

DO NOT OVER-POWER onto trailer or damage may occur to the boat and/or the trailer!

The trailer must be positioned for the correct water depth for loading or you may damage the boat. Varying ramp angles require dierent procedures. In general, the steeper the ramp, the more shallow the trailer should be positioned in the water. Your local dealer can help you understand this, should you require additional assistance.

Roll driver’s side window of tow vehicle down prior to backing down ramp. Should the vehicle slip into the water, the driver can escape through open window.

NOTE: Because your Supra is a true inboard, when backing up, the stern will have a tendency to drift left or right depending on propeller rotation.

Watersports Safety Code

Before you get in the water: Skiing or riding instruction is recommended before use. Instruction will teach general safety guidelines and proper skiing or riding techniques, which may reduce your risk of injury. For more information on skiing or riding schools, contact your dealer, Association, or local ski club.

• Know the federal, state and local laws that apply to your area.

• If you are not familiar with a waterway, ask someone who is, to tell you about any hidden dangers or things to avoid

• Whether you plan to be in a watercraft, or skiing/riding behind one it is important you are wearing a properly tted life jacket (PFD) approved by your country’s agency, USCG Type III, ISO, etc.

• Inspect all equipment prior to each use, check bindings, ns, tube, attachment, tow rope and otation device. Do not use if damaged.

Watercraft Safety: A knowledgeable and responsible driver is the most important safety device on any watercraft.

• Never operate a watercraft, ski or ride under the inuence of alcohol or drugs.

• Only use water ballast and people for additional weight.

• Never exceed the passenger or weight limitations of the watercraft.

• Never allow passengers to hang outside the watercraft or towed device or sit on the gunwales or anywhere outside of the normal seating area.

• Never allow water to overow the bow or gunwales of the watercraft.

• Uneven weight distribution or additional weight may; aect the handling of the watercraft.

Carbon Monoxide: The exhaust from the engine on a watercraft contains Carbon Monoxide (CO) which is a colorless, odorless and poisonous gas. Excessive exposure to CO can cause severe injury or death. Follow this advice to avoid injury:

• Never “Platform Drag” by holding onto the boarding platform or be dragged directly behind the watercraft. This is where CO will be.

• Do not sit on the watercraft transom or boarding platform while the engine is running.

• Make sure the engine is properly tuned and running well. An improperly tuned engine produces excessive exhaust and CO.

• If you smell engine exhaust, do not stay in that position.

• Go to the United States Coast Guard’s website: www.uscgboating.org for more information on how to help protect yourself and others from the dangers of CO.

Tow Ropes: Tow ropes come in dierent lengths and strengths for dierent activities. Make sure any rope you are using is suited for skiing or riding and that it is in good condition.

• Never use a rope that is frayed, knotted, unraveling or discolored from use or being left in the sun. If a rope breaks while in use, it can recoil at the skier/rider being towed or into the watercraft where it might strike passengers. Replace tow ropes with any sign of damage.

• Never use a tow rope with elastic or bungee material to pull skiers or riders.

• Rope should be attached to the watercraft in an approved fashion with hardware designed for towing. Refer to you watercraft manual for instructions on proper tow rope attachment.

• Always keep people and tow ropes away from the propeller, even when idling.

• If a tow rope should become entangled in a propeller, shut o the engine, remove the key and put it in your pocket before retrieving the rope.

Preparing to ski or ride: Always have a person other than the driver as an observer to look out for the skier/rider.

• BE sure the driver is aware of the experience and ability level of the skier/rider.

• The driver, observer and skier/rider need to agree on hand signals before skiing or riding. Signals should include READY, STOP, SPEED UP, and SLOW DOWN.

• Start the engine only after making sure that no one in the water is near the propeller.

• Turn the engine o when people are getting into or out of the watercraft, or in the water near the watercraft.

• Always make sure the tow rope is not wrapped around anyone’s hands, arms, legs, or other parts of the body.

• Start the watercraft and move slowly to remove slack until the tow rope is tight.

• When the skier/rider signals READY and there is no trac ahead, take o in a straight line. Adjust the speed according to the signals given by the skier/rider.

Skiing or Riding: The watercraft and skier/rider should always maintain a sucient distance from obstacles so a skier/rider falling or coasting and/or watercraft will not encounter any obstacle.

• Do not use in shallow water or near shore, docks, pilings, swimmers, other watercraft, or any other obstacles.

• Use only on the water.

• Never attempt land or dock starts. This will increase your risk of injury or death.

• Always wear a properly tted U.S. Coast Guard Type III (PFD) or ISO approved Life Jacket.

• The faster you ski or ride, the greater your risk of injury.

• Never make sharp turns that may cause a slingshot eect on the skier/rider’s speed.

• Skier/Rider should be towed at an appropriate speed for their ability level.

Fallen skier or rider: Falling and injuries are common in skiing or riding.

• Circle a fallen skier/rider slowly to return the tow rope handle or pick up the fallen skier/rider.

• Put the watercraft in neutral when near a fallen skier/rider.

• Always keep the fallen skier/rider in view and on the driver’s side of the watercraft.

• Display a red or orange skier-down ag to alert other vessels that a skier/rider is down.
