Section II Boating Safety Important Safety Information! Your safety, as well as the safety of others with and around you, is a direct result of how you operate and maintain your boat. Read and comprehend this manual. Make sure that you understand all the controls and operating instructions before attempting to operate the boat. Improper operation is extremely dangerous. The basic safety rules are outlined in this section of the manual.
Safety Equipment Safety Training Organizations The following is a listing of just some of the agencies and organizations that offer safety training or information: American Red Cross, National HQ 17th & D Streets NW Washington, DC 20006 (202) 639-3686 www.redcross.org USA Waterski 799 Overlook Drive Winter Haven, FL 33884 (941) 324-4341 www.usawaterski.org Boat Owners Association of the United States (BOAT/US) 880 South Pickett Street Alexandria, VA 22304 (703) 823-9550 www.boatus.
General Safety Precautions Failure to adhere to these precautions may result in severe injury or death to you and/or others. - Improper operation is extremely dangerous. Operators must read and understand all operating manuals supplied with the boat before operation. General Safety Precautions (continued) - The tow bar is not designed for vertical extensions. Any modifications to the tow bar or its mountings may result in damage to the boat and injury to the user.
Skiing Safety Skiers are obligated to be as aware of the fundamental safety rules as well as the boat operator. If you are new to water skiing, seek certified training before starting. You will find it especially helpful to join a local ski club and USA Waterski when possible. Always remember that the majority of water skiing injuries are the result of impacts with other objects, so always look where you are going and be aware of what is going on around you.
Proper Seating Contact Information Proper seating is an important element of boating safety. Proper seating consists of sitting with your buttock in full contact with a seat anytime the boat is underway and using hand holds and grab handles to secure oneself and prevent loss of balance. Do not sit in locations not designed as a seat. For instance, do not sit on seat backs, do not sit on the sides or gunwale of the boat, and do not sit on the sundeck while the boat is in motion.
Warning Plates and Labels Read and note ALL warning plates and labels from bow to stern that appear on the boat, including these! If your warning decals should become damaged in any way, please contact your Moomba Dealer or write to Skier’s Choice, Inc., 1717 Henry G. Lane Street, Maryville, Tennessee 37801 to request replacement warning decals. The decals will be provided free of charge. Your boat’s serial number (located on the transom) must be included for warning decal requests. Skier’s Choice, Inc.
Section III Reprinted from “Fishing and Skiing Boats Owner’s Manual” with permission from the NMMA. Emergency Procedures The time to think about emergencies is before they happen. Plan ahead. Know what to do before you encounter any of these situations. Wear a PFD (Personal Flotation Device) when boating. • Throw burning materials overboard if possible. Explosion & Fire • Signal for help. • Move anyone not needed for firefighting operations away from the flames.
Grounding (continued) Basic Guidelines • Inspect damage to hull, propulsion and steering systems. • Check for leaks. If water is coming in, stopping the flow takes priority over getting free. Towing Vessel (continued) • Use double-braided or braid-on-braid line. Never use three-strand twisted nylon; it has too much elasticity and can snap back dangerously. • Fasten the towline as far forward as possible on the upwind or up-current side of the towing boat.
Person Overboard (continued) Propulsion, Control or Steering Failure • Keep person overboard on helm side so operator has the person constantly in sight. • Shut off engine. • Put out an anchor to prevent drifting. • Approach from downwind and move alongside into the wind for pickup. • When almost alongside, stop the engine in gear to prevent dangerous propeller “windmilling.” • As part of your emergency plan, consider what to do if you were alone and fell overboard (e.g.
Visual Distress Signals (continued) Notes: boats participating in organized events, and manually propelled boats. • If you are required to have visual distress signals, at least three safety-approved pyrotechnic devices in serviceable condition must be readily accessible. They must be marked with a date showing the service life, which must not be expired. • Carry three signals for day use and three signals for night use.
Section IV Boating Rules Basic Boating Rules Encountering Other Vessels You should be aware of these rules and follow them whenever you encounter another vessel on the water. There are three main situations in which you may encounter other vessels and you must observe the Steering Rules in order to avoid a collision. These are: The rules presented in this manual are condensed and have been provided as a convenience only. Consult your local U.S.
When two power-driven vessels are crossing each other’s path close enough to run the risk of collision, the vessel that views the crossing vessel to the starboard (right) side must give-way. If the other vessel is to the port (left) side, maintain your course and direction, provided the other vessel gives you the right-of-way as it should. All vessels which are fishing with nets, lines or trawls are considered under International Rules to be fishing vessels.

Section VI Operating Information BREAK IN Taking care to properly break in your new engine will pay off in the long run. In our years of field testing, we have proven that an Indmar engine, when properly broken in according to our simple procedures, will last longer, run better and have fewer repairs over its lifetime. During the BREAK-IN process, engine temperature should be carefully monitored and speed should be reduced if overheating is evident.
Maximum Capacities Canvas Cover In compliance with United States Coast Guard Regulations, Moomba Boats meet or exceed all safety standards designed for recreational boats. To ensure safe handling and performance, each Moomba boat displays a maximum capacity sticker (see sample), stating the maximum passenger weight load allowable. Your Moomba boat cover is made from the finest canvas and webbing to ensure that your boat will be protected in the off season.
Section VII Starting & Operation A standard pre-starting procedure should be always be followed before the first start-up of the day. 1. Check the engine oil level. 2. Check for gasoline fumes in bilge or engine compartment. 3.Operate engine blower for four minutes before starting the engine to remove any fumes. 4. Check manual operation of bilge pump. Make sure bilge areas are empty. Other items might also be inspected, depending on the boat and its use.
To Start Carburetor Engine If Carburetor Engine Floods 1. Place shift selector in Neutral with the throttle in the upright (zero) position and push the transmission lockout button at the bottom of the lever to disengage the transmission. 2. Turn the ignition key to the start position to operate the starter. 3. When the engine starts, release the key and it will return to the run position. 4. With the transmission disengaged, push the throttle lever forward to increase the engine idle to 1200 to 1500 RPM.
Throttle Lever The throttle lever controls both the throttle and the transmission. The idle position (normally vertical) is the zero throttle position and the neutral position for the transmission. A safety ring (umbrella) keeps the lever from being accidentally moved to engage the transmission. To place the transmission into gear, with your hand placed over the lever ball, pull up on the safety ring (umbrella) and slowly push the lever into forward gear or slowly pull the lever back into reverse gear.
Fuel Precautions Fueling Use a gasoline with a minimum octane rating of 89. See engine owner’s manual for more information. DO NOT use gasoline containing methyl alcohol (methanol). Methanol can damage your boat’s fuel system. Sparks while fueling could cause an explosion! Gasoline stabilizer should be added to the fuel tank when the boat is used infrequently or whenever your boat will not be used for two weeks or more. During storage always add Gasoline stabilizer to reduce gumming or tank sludge.
Section VIII Instrument Panel & Controls Instrument Panel & Controls Speed Calibration Moomba Dash Speed may be checked using a stopwatch and a standard slalom course. Adjust the speedometer needle by twisting the adjuster knobs located beneath the dash panel. Slalom Course Speeds (Times are from start gate to end gate) Blank Gauge The Moomba dash has extra slots for gauges for accessories. If you add options in the future that have a 2 inch gauge (I.e. wakeplate, depth finder, etc.
Warning Stickers Tachometer Always heed the dash mounted warning stickers. GASOLINE VAPORS CAN EXPLODE! BEFORE STARTING ENGINE: - Check engine compartment for gasoline or vapors. - Operate blower for four minutes before starting engine. - Run blower below cruising speed. - Turn off engine before using ski platform. The tachometer registers the operating speed of the motor’s shaft output and may be used as an alternative to speedometer if weight and water conditions permit.
Voltmeter (Inboard) The voltmeter indicates whether the battery is charging or discharging. The needle should be located in the normal range while the engine is running. If the voltmeter does not register in the normal range, there may be a problem within the electrical system. It is normal for the voltmeter needle to fall when starting the engine. Normal range is 12 to 14 volts. Temp Gauge The temperature gauge indicates the engine coolant temperature while the coolant is circulating inside the engine.
Depth Sounder Setting Deep Alarm (continued) To set the Deep Alarm, perform the following: 1.Press the down button. The current deep alarm depth setting will display. 2.Press the up or down button to increase or decrease respectively the deep alarm depth value. Pressing either button once will change the depth value in 1-foot or 0.1 Meter increments. Holding either button will change the depth value in 9-foot or 1-Meter increments per second.
Troubleshooting INSTRUMENT DOES NOT TURN ON (continued) housing or replace the fuse holder assembly if necessary. 2.Check the power cable connection. Be sure that the unit is connected to a known power source: RED wire to positive, BLACK wire to negative or ground. 3.Ensure that the power source is powered using a test light or some other reliable form of testing 12 volt power.
Stereo engaged. The red LED light will remain on until the system is turned “OFF” using the rocker switch. 3.The system will not allow any more throttle input than the position of the throttle arm. Therefore, the throttle arm should be advanced completely after the initial engagement of the system to allow the system to maintain the set RPM with different throttle positions required such as when the boat turns.

Ignition Switch Tilt Steering Located on the port side of the dashboard, the ignition switch has three positions. In the vertical position the ignition is OFF. With the key in, turn the ignition switch one notch to the right to check all electrical equipment, including blower, pump, and lights. Turn the ignition all the way to the right to operate the starter. NOTE: All electrical equipment should be turned off when the boat is in storage.
Warning Light (V-Drives Only) The warning light should be “on” at idle. If the light remains “on” when the engine is above 1200 RPM, shut the engine off and check V-Drive oil level. Gravity Ballast System The optional Gravity Ballast System is an electronically controlled ballast system that can be operated from the driver’s seat. The Gravity system is available in a 1 or 3 position system.
Gravity Ballast System (continued) Each Gravity Ballast system also includes a manual shut off valve in case of emergencies. If closed, the valve will prevent any water from entering the system and is only used in emergency situations. Under normal use the valve should remain open to allow full flow of water into system. Priming the System To allow water into the system, the Gravity Ballast system utilizes a scooped intake strainer to force water into the system.
Outback Optional Gravity Ballast System NOTE: When filling the rear ballast bag in the Outback, the rear seat should be raised to the upper position to allow the bag to expand freely. 40 © 2006 Skier’s Choice, Inc.
Section IX Equipment & Options Ignition Keys Fuel Cap Key Two ignition keys are provided with the boat. Key entry into the ignition may sometimes be difficult due to the rubber boot protector. Please do not unduly force the key into the ignition. Key tumblers are located vertically, so the key should be vertical when placed into the switch. To prevent tampering with the fuel system, your boat is supplied with a gas cap which may be opened only with a special key.
Driver’s Seat & Seat Adjustment The Rise-R Seat is a unique driver seat enhancement. The front edge of the driver’s seat cushion lifts up to give the driver a taller sightline. To switch the seat to the raised position, use two hands to lift and push the front edge of the seat cushion up and back until it is sitting on the rear half of the driver’s seat cushion. To switch to the lower position, use two hands to push the Rise-R seat cushion forward and down. Be careful of the articulating hinge.
Fire Extinguisher Glove Box A standard Coast Guard approved fire extinguisher is provided on all Moomba boats. The fire extinguisher is located on the port side of the interior under the observer’s seat. To open the glove box, press the black round cylinder down while lifting the black finger tab. Once open, the lid is supported by a spring. To close the lid, push the middle of the spring toward the rear of the glove box with one hand as you guide the lid closed with the other.
Rad-A-Cage The Mobius models are equipped with a Moomba Rad-A-Cage towing tower. The cage is designed as a stable tower to enhance wakeboarding. It is NOT intended to be used to tow skiers, barefooters, or multiple wakeboarders. Such use will void any warranties written or implied. Be sure that all bolts are tightly in place before use. Be aware of and avoid low overhead objects such as bridges, power lines, overhanging trees, etc.
Stern Pole Light Bow Light The removable pole light is stored in the bow. Always check for proper alignment when inserting the pole light into the receptacle. The bow light is located on the forward deck. To alert other boaters to your position and direction while underway at night, the light is green on the starboard side and red on the port side. To replace the bulb, remove Phillips screw to lift cover.
Bow Eye Lifting Rings The bow eye is located at the front of the hull below the rub rail. It is the point of attachment to lead the boat onto the trailer and to secure the boat to the trailer or to a tie-off when docking. Two lifting rings are located on the transom. NOTE: See Hoisting Instructions before using the bow eye to hoist the boat. NOTE: The lifting rings should be the only point of attachment for lifting cables. (See Hoisting Instructions.
Propeller The research and design team at Skier’s Choice has carefully explored and tested many different propellers and pitch angles for use on Moomba boats. All tests indicate that the current propeller installed on your model is the best for the variety of boating performance required, whether skiing competitively or for pleasure. It is strongly recommended that your Moomba dealer be notified before changing the propeller.
Optional Trim Switch and Gauge Optional Hydraulic Wakeplate This switch controls the optional hydraulic wakeplate. The gauge indicates the position of the wakeplate. The gauge will only read from 0 degrees to 50 degrees due to limited hydraulic movement. The optional hydraulic wakeplate allows the driver to control the running attitude of the boat. Battery Box The battery box is mounted on the inside of the observer’s seat storage compartment.
Fueling Conditions Fuel Vent The following conditions may be considered normal operation of the fuel gauge and fuel system: - Gas station pumps may shut off before the fuel gauge indicates FULL. - The amount of fuel required for fill-up may not exactly correspond to the gauge. - The gauge needle may not move away from FULL until some time after fill-up. - The gauge needle may move during turns, stops, and acceleration.
Double-Up Seating Optional Bimini Top Some Moomba models offer Double-Up seating. This unique seating can be stored flat for easy access to the bow or flipped up for extra rear and forward facing seating. To use this seating, lift and pull the seat back into the locked position. Be sure that the metal arms are locked straight before applying pressure. To lay seat back down, simply push down on the middle section of the metal support arm.
Optional Boat Heater The boat heater is a forced air heater that uses hot engine water as a heat source. To use the heater, simply turn the heater switch to the selected fan speed. In order for the heater to work, the engine must be at operating temperature. One of the features of the heater are the snorkel vents, which can be pulled out to direct heat to specific areas. Cooler Some Moomba models offer built-in coolers. They are foam insulated and have drain holes that drain water into the bilge.
Optional Perfect Pass Perfect Pass is a marine approved cruise control system. It is an accurate and simple way to ensure consistent speed. It is controlled by the driver via a gauge on the dash. Knowing how to properly operate your Perfect Pass will ensure a trouble-free day on the water. When the operation of the Perfect Pass is tested at the factory, it is set for an weighted boat. Under this setting you may experience surging if you have weighted your boat by filling your ballast system.
Fresh Water Cooling System The optional fresh water cooling system has a heat exchanger which allows the engine to have an antifreeze mixture which circulates in the engine. For more information, see your engine owner’s manual. Fresh Water Flush The optional Fresh Water Flush kit is a valve specifically designed to allow you to attach a garden hose to your engine water intake to flush brackish or salt water out of your engine. To use the Fresh Water Flush, simply attach a garden hose to the valve.
Optional Stereo Amp The stereo amplifier is an optional piece of stereo equipment that is designed to increase the wattage of the signal going to the speakers while minimizing distortion of this signal. Please see stereo amplifier owner’s manual for more information. Using a stereo amplifier without boat engine running may drain the battery to the point where the boat will not restart.
Transom Mount Stereo Remote Automatic Fire Suppression System The optional Automatic Fire Suppression System has a sensor in the engine compartment that is designed to detect a fire. Under normal conditions, the dash area warning light will glow green when the ignition is “ON”. If the engine compartment sensor is activated by a fire, it will deploy the content of it’s fire extinguisher and the dash mounted warning light will turn red.
Altitude and Wakeboard Prop Moomba offers an optional prop designed specifically for high altitude and wakeboarding. This prop may help boats perform better if the boat is being operated at elevations above 4,000 feet. This prop also helps boats specifically weighted for wakeboarding get on plane faster. NOTE: This prop will reduce the top end speed of the boat. NOTE: IT will change the RPM-to-speed ratio and make it possible for the RPM limiter built into the engine to engage at full throttle.
Dual Battery Option Hookup The dual battery option is designed to give you extra battery power to run accessories, but at the same time give you a safety feature not commonly found in a dual battery setup. The Moomba Dual battery option features a Voltage Sensitive relay which always monitors the engine starting battery so that your engine will always restart. We recommend that the selector switch always be set to “1”.

Section X Service & Maintenance Service & Maintenance For your convenience a maintenance chart has been included in this manual. The chart indicates when to perform safety checks, lubrication, and general service to the boat. Engine hours or elapsed time determine when service is necessary. It is recommended that any replacement parts used during maintenance or for repair be supplied by an authorized Moomba dealer. NOTE: You are responsible for keeping records of all maintenance on your boat.
Cooling Systems Body Lubrication Fresh Water Cooling System Normal use of your Moomba causes metal to metal movement at some parts in the boat. Driver seat track should be lubricated with a water resistant chassis lubricant such as silicon grease. The standard cooling system for Moomba boats is an open circulating cooling system with water intake. This is preferred for lakes and reservoirs with low salt content.
Engine Oil & Filter Dipstick The oil filter is located below the engine. The engine manufacturer recommends that you change the oil and oil filter after the first 10-20 hours use of your new boat. Thereafter, to maximize engine life, change oil and filter after every 50 hours of use (See Engine Manual.) REFER TO ENGINE MANUAL for more information. If the oil pressure indication is too high or too low, stop the engine immediately and check the oil level on the dipstick.
Transmission Direct Drive V-Drive Transmission fluid level should be checked regularly (such as every ten engine hours) and fluid added if necessary. Maintain fluid level as follows: - Boat must be at rest. - Engine should be at operating temperature but turned off while checking level. - Remove transmission fluid dipstick. - Wipe fluid clean from dipstick and replace. - Remove dipstick and note level indicated by the upper and lower marks. - If required, add fluid to bring the level to the upper mark.
V-Drive Location Maintaining Fluid Level V-Drive oil level should be checked regularly (such as every ten engine hours) and fluid added if necessary. Maintain fluid level as follows: - Boat must be at rest. - Engine should be at operating temperature but turned off while checking level. - Remove V-Drive Unit dipstick. - Wipe fluid clean from dipstick and replace. - Remove dipstick and note level indicated by the upper and lower marks. - If required, add fluid to bring the level to the upper mark.
Battery Cable Installation & Precautions Hydrogen and oxygen gases are produced during normal battery operation and charging. Sparks or flames near the battery vent openings can cause the mixture to ignite and explode. Your battery is an important part of your boat. It provides all of the power to start your boat and also allows all of your electrical components to work, even if the motor is not running (bilge pump, blower, stereo, etc.).
Section XI Cleaning, Care & Storage Fiberglass Care Rub Rail Care Washing and waxing the boat hull and deck regularly will extend the life and beauty of your Moomba. It is a good routine to rinse your boat with fresh water after each day’s use. It is recommended that the hull and deck be cleaned and waxed after every 50 hours of use. This will decrease water friction and lessen the potential for staining or spotting on the gel coat surface.
Upholstery Cleaning Foreign Deposits Tree sap, bird droppings, air borne chemicals, petroleum products and other foreign matter may damage the gel coat surface if not removed promptly (See Washing Instructions). All upholstery items on your boat are made of tough marine grade vinyl that is easily cleaned with a mild detergent. Strong detergents and cleaners may shorten the life of the vinyl. PLEASE SEE VINYL MANUFACTURER’S RECOMMENDED CARE GUIDE INCLUDED IN YOUR OWNER’S PACKAGE.
Section XII Winterization & Dry Storage Winterization Summerization When the boating and ski season comes to a close, it is important to have your boat professionally winterized. Before using the boat after it has been in dry storage requires some special treatment. Moomba recommends having your boat professionally summerized, preferably by the same facility that prepped it for storage. They will be familiar with what items were done in the fall and what items need to be addressed in the spring.
Hoisting CORRECT HOISTING If the boat ever needs to be hoisted, special attention should be given to the following recommendations: - Hoist the boat using a horizontal lifting bar only. - Never attempt to lift the boat by means of a cable sling from bow to stern lifting eyes. - Hoist operator should slowly and smoothly lift the boat without jerking to avoid damage to the lifting eyes. - Use a clevis inserted through the lifting eye since a hook may damage the lifting eye edges.
Section XIII Technical Information Identification Number Battery Specifications A good Quality Marine Dual Purpose Battery is recommended. The hull indentification number is located on the upper right hand side of the transom below the rub rail. © 2006 Skier’s Choice, Inc. Hydrogen and oxygen gases are produced during normal battery operation or charging. Sparks or flames can cause this mixture to ignite and explode if it comes near the vent openings.

Trailer & Towing Section XIV Trailering Your Boat Connecting the Trailer The trailer supplied with your Moomba model was designed especially for the boat with your convenience in mind. Please be sure that you have an appropriate tow vehicle before attempting to trailer your boat. Your vehicle must be capable of towing 3,500 — 6,000 lbs. depending on the model.
Unloading Procedure Loading Procedure NOTICE: DO NOT attempt to use excessive power to free the boat from dry carpet runners. Power off of the trailer only when the boat has floated free. To re-trailer the boat, position the trailer in the water with approximately 1 inch of the top of the fender showing as in step 3. UNLOADING. If the trailer is not submerged to the correct depth, the bow of the boat could drop when powering off incorrectly, possibly damaging the boat.
Trailer Alignment CORRECT ALIGNMENT When pulling the boat onto the trailer, be sure that it is centered on the trailer. © 2006 Skier’s Choice, Inc. INCORRECT ALIGNMENT The distance between the boat and the wheel runner board should be about equal on both sides.
Trailer Options Tandem Axle Swing-Away Tongue With the swing tongue, you can shorten the trailer length for storage by pulling the pin and swinging the tongue away to the side. Some models come standard with a tandem axle trailer and with some it is an option. DO NOT tow trailer without latch pin installed. Always install safety clip on end of latch pin. Second Axle Disc Brakes Spare Tire Bracket This optional second axle disk brakes give the trailer more stopping power.
LED Package The optional LED lighting package replaces the traditional trailer lights with LED lights. The LED lights are brighter than the traditional lights. NOTE: Vehicles with trailer light monitors may not function properly with LED lights due to the low resistance of the LED lights. Aftermarket resistor packages are available which allow the monitors to work properly. Laser Cut Steps The optional laser cut steps are backlit so they illuminate when the trailer’s running lights are illuminated.
