INTRODUCTION

This manual has been compiled to help you to operate your craft with safety and pleasure. It contains details of the craft; the equipment
supplied or fi tted, its systems and information on their operation. Please read it carefully and familiarize yourself with the craft before
using it.

This Owner’s Safety Manual is not a course on boating safety or seamanship. If this is your fi rst craft or infl atable, or if 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 or national boating/sailing federation or yacht club will be pleased to
advise you of local sea schools or competent instructors.

Ensure that the anticipated wind and sea conditions will correspond to the design category of your craft (see DESIGN CATEGORIES) and
that you and your crew are able to handle the craft in these conditions. Even when your boat is categorized for them, the sea and wind
conditions corresponding to the design categories A, B, and C range from severe storm conditions for category A, to strong conditions for
the top of category C, open to the hazards of a freak wave or gust. These are therefore dangerous conditions, where only a competent, fi t
and trained crew using a well maintained craft can satisfactorily operate.

This Owner’s Safety Manual is not a detailed maintenance or trouble-shooting guide. In case of diffi culty, contact Walker Bay or its
national representative.

Always use trained and competent people for maintenance, fi xing or modifi cations. Modifi cations that may affect the safety of the craft
must be assessed, executed and documented by competent people. Walker Bay or its representative cannot be held responsible for
modifi cations that Walker Bay® has not approved. Modifi cations or attachment of items to the hull or tube may affect your warranty
(see LIMITED WARRANTY).

In some countries a driving license, boating license, certifi cation, or authorization are required, or specifi c regulations are in force for
operating a marine craft. Check with your local boating safety offi ce.

ENG

Always maintain your craft properly and make allowances for the deterioration that will occur over time and as a result of heavy use or
misuse of the craft. Any craft, no matter how strong it may be, can be severely damaged if not used properly. This is not compatible with
safe boating (see OPERATOR INSTRUCTIONS). Always adjust the speed and direction of the craft to sea conditions.

The craft should have onboard the appropriate safety equipment (see SAFETY EQUIPMENT) according to the type of craft, weather
conditions etc. This equipment is mandatory in some countries. The crew should be familiar with the use of all safety equipment and
emergency maneuvering (see SAFETY EQUIPMENT & EMERGENCY PROCEDURES). Contact your local boating/sailing organization for
information, lessons or drill sessions.

All persons should wear a suitable Coast Guard approved buoyancy aid (life jacket/personal fl oatation device). Note that in some
countries, it is a legal requirement to wear a buoyancy aid that complies with their national regulations at all times.

PLEASE KEEP THIS OWNER’S MANUAL AND YOUR MSO IN A SECURE PLACE AND HAND IT OVER TO THE NEW
OWNER WHEN YOU SELL THE CRAFT.

REGISTRATION AND REGULATION

REGISTER YOUR BOAT (USING YOUR MANUFACTURING STATEMENT OF ORIGIN OR MSO, AND YOUR HULL
IDENTIFICATION NUMBER OR HIN) WITH YOUR STATE OR PROVINCE IF REQUIRED. REGULATIONS VARY BY
JURISDICTION SO CONTACT YOUR LOCAL REGISTRATION OFFICE DIRECTLY.

The operator is responsible for knowledge of federal, state or local regulations concerning operation
requirements. For example: safety equipment, discharge of oil, speed, noise, wake etc.

MATERIALS

Walker Bay® uses materials and fabric from the world’s most respected manufacturers. We take extra care in our construction to create a line of
boats you can depend on.

1100 Decitex Polymer - All 1100 Decitex boats are made from a high grade 32oz. synthetic material which has an
internal woven fabric and multiple layers of polymer coating for maximum durability and minimum weight. This
creates a fabric which has been tested and proven to give nearly twice the tear resistance and overall tensile
strength of other polymer fabrics.

Thermo-SealTM - A proprietary bonding technique where material is heated under pressure to create a perfect
adhesion area. A three-layer gluing process with all seams internally and externally butted end to end provides
maximum strength and durability.

Hypalon® - Walker Bay uses the fi nest Hypalon® material available. Four layers of calendared sheets offer
guaranteed air-tightness and optimal adhesion of rubbers. This combination of materials provides improved
resistance against weathering, chemicals and abrasions. The tubes are bonded using a three-layer gluing
process with all seams internally and externally butted for maximum reliability.

High Impact Marine Composite Hull - Walker Bay® uses high-pressure injection molding as the optimum
manufacturing process due to the incredible precision and quality of fi nish attainable.

The process of building a boat to such high standards requires the largest injection molding machine in the world and a mold which weighs
72 tons. A Genesis hull is then molded at extremely high pressures of up to 6000 tons, producing a one piece hull with no seams where failure
can occur. Custom engineered UV resistant resins are used to create an incredibly durable and long lasting boat that has a superior strength­to-weight ratio over other boats. The result is a lightweight, durable, and virtually maintenance free boat.
