Operating Your Tender
CAUTION.
Operate the boat with due
care and at a speed appropriate to
the sea conditions. Be aware of local laws
and restrictions. Always carry out a visual
check of the boat and its components prior to
use. Adhere to the maintenance schedule.
WARNING.
This boat uses a water
jet propulsion system which may
exceed the performance and behave
differently to other boats you have
operated in the past. At slower speeds,
ability to steer is reduced.
WARNING.
The Operator of this boat
must be of a suitable age and
competence, have read and understood
the owner's manual and safety labels,
have been familiarised with the correct
use of this boat, possess knowledge of
basic seamanship and hold the necessary
qualifications as required under law.
WARNING.
Never permit a guest to
operate this boat unless the guest is
of suitable age and competence, has
read and understood the owner's manual
and safety labels, has been familiarised
with the correct use of this boat,
possesses knowledge of basic
seamanship and holds the necessary
qualifications as required under law.
WARNING.
Never exceed maximum
passenger capacity under any
circumstances; doing so reduces stability
and control.
WARNING.
Always wear the
appropriate buoyancy aid and ensure
all passengers do the same.
WARNING.
Always operate
prudently according to visibility and
water conditions.
WARNING.
Never operate the boat
under the influence of drugs or
alcohol. They will slow down reaction time
and impair judgment.
WARNING.
Never perform high
speed and extreme manoeuvres,
which could result in loss of control.
WARNING.
Always attach the kill
cord to your leg. Removal of the kill
cord will stop the engine in the event of an
emergency.
WARNING.
Ability to steer the boat
is restricted while decelerating.
Familiarise yourself with the boat's handling.
After running tender at high speeds it is good
practice to allow the engine to idle for a
minimum of one minute before switching off,
to allow the turbo to cool.
This boat uses a water jet propulsion system
and has unique characteristics in steering. The
throttle produces thrust from the jet pump, the
directional control is provided by opening the
throttle and turning the wheel in the direction
of your turn. High thrust will turn the boat
sharply; low thrust will produce less turning
force. There is no rudder, so while underway
there is no steering without thrust.
Moving the shift lever
WARNING.
rapidly from forward to reverse
whilst the tender is traveling at speed
(a crash stop) will result in a rapid
deceleration and unpredictable handling.
Be aware that occupants of the boat could
become unseated during such a manoeuvre.
If weed or debris gets caught in the jet unit
during use, cavitation can occur, causing a
decrease in forward thrust. If this condition is
allowed to continue the engine may overheat,
resulting in serious damage. If there is any
sign of debris or weeds etc blocking the jet,
remove the boat from the water.
Switch off the battery isolator and remove
all debris from around the jet unit. DO NOT
make repeated attempts to start your
tender if it has been blocked or jammed
by debris or rope as engine damage
may occur. In case of difficulty consult
your Williams authorised dealer. A full list of
authorised dealers/engineers is available at
