4.Canvas

!DANGER

Exhaust fumes from engines contain deadly carbon monoxide gas (CO). Boats with canvas or with poor ventilation are most likely to collect fumes.

CO sickness symptoms include headache, nausea and dizziness. Do not mistake these symptoms for sea sickness.

Ventilate boat. See Section 1.3, Carbon Monoxide, for more details.

!DANGER

In rainy and/or cold weather, fresh air must circulate through boat to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning.

See Section 1.3, Carbon Monoxide, for more details.

Bimini Top or sunshade must not be used when the vessel speed exceeds 45 MPH. Damage to boat or bimini may occur.

Removing or installing canvas on the water can be difficult since rough water or wakes can cause you or your passengers to lose their balance while attempting canvas removal or installation.

For safety and ease of installation and removal of canvas, use at least two people.

!DANGER

If the cockpit is totally enclosed with canvas covers and curtains while engine is running or boat is moving, carbon monoxide will build up and cause death or permanent injury.

Do not use the rear (aft) curtain or camper top while engine is running or boat is moving.

The following canvas options are available for the

20 Outlaw:

Cockpit Cover

Mooring Cover

Trailering Cover

A.Canvas Care and Maintenance

See Section 9, page 9.2, for instructions on the care and maintenance of your canvas.

B.Trailering With Canvas

To trailer your boat with the cockpit cover installed, you must install a mooring cover over the cockpit cover with tie down straps tightened.

5.Horn

ELECTRIC HORN

The horn is operated by a switch on the dash and is protected by a fuse under the dash. There is no maintenance required on the horn itself, although it is advisable to avoid spraying water directly into the horn. Check periodically to ensure that horn is still operational.

6.Swim Platform w/ Ladder (Optional)

Your 20 Outlaw may have a swim platform installed with a ladder.

With this option, entering the boat from the water is more convenient, but there are safety rules that must be followed.

1.Never sit on the swim platform when boat is moving.

2.Before using or extending the ladder, make sure engine is off and prop is stopped.

3.It may be difficult to extend the ladder while in the water so it important to leave the ladder down if swimmers are in the water.

4.Always make sure ladder is secure before starting engine.

!DANGER

MAKE SURE ENGINE IS OFF AND PROPELLER IS STOPPED BEFORE USING BOARDING LADDER
