SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
•Always wear a US. Coast Guard Approved Floatation Device. As with canoes and kayaks, there is a danger of falling over board. Always keep your weight centered. Flotation devices are mandatory for your safety.
•Your Float Cat was designed for Class 1 water or less. It was not designed for rough water, rapids, or high wind conditions. Always use common sense and take weather, wind and water conditions into account before using your Float Cat.
•Use common sense when using waders. Always wear a wader safety belt to keep water from entering your waders in case you need to get off your boat or you end up in the water.
•Always attach the supplied tether to yourself so you will never get separated from your boat.
