Your boat's engine and accessories were selected to provide optimum performance and service. Installing a different engine or other accessories may cause unwanted handling characteristics. Should you choose to install a different engine, or to add accessories that will affect the boat's running trim, have an experienced marine technician perform a safety inspection and handling test before operating your boat again. Certain modifications to your boat will result in cancellation of your warranty protection. Always check with your dealer before making any modifications to your boat.

9.Propellers

Your Baja© has been equipped with propellers which our tests have shown to be the best suited for general use with our engine under normal conditions and load. Do not change the pitch of your propellers without getting your dealer's recommendations first. If you change to a different propeller pitch, under no circumstances use propellers which allow the engine to operate at higher than recommended RPM. (Your engine manual specifies the maximum recommended RPM).
