NOTICE
If the engine continues running with the craft
capsized, water can enter the throttle body

severe and immediate damage to internal en-
gine parts.
To prevent severe engine dam-
age, immediately stop the engine if the craft
is capsized.
Do not operate the watercraft with water in

pletely empty of water; internal engine parts

yourself up onto the bottom of the hull.
•
Now, push down on the rear corner of the hull with
one foot, using your body weight to roll the cap-
sized craft toward you.

As the craft rolls over toward you, reach for the far
side of the hull, if needed, and pull it on over.
