These rules are used internationally, and are also enforced by the United States Coast Guard and local agencies. You should be aware of these rules, and follow them whenever you encounter another vessel on the water.
6G8-9-1L-1 3/26/02 11:56 AM Page 13 E RULES WHEN ENCOUNTERING VESSELS one another if you continue on your set course and speed. There are three main situations which you may encounter with other vessels which could lead to a collision unless the Steering Rules are followed: Meeting (you are approaching another vessel head-on) Crossing (you are traveling across the other vessel’s path) Overtaking (you are passing or being passed by another vessel) In the following illustration, your boat is in the center.
6G8-9-1L-1 3/26/02 11:56 AM Page 14 E way until you are clear of it. Likewise, if another vessel is passing you, you should maintain your speed and direction so that the other vessel can steer itself around you. OTHER SPECIAL SITUATIONS There are three other rules you should be aware of when driving your boat around other vessels. Narrow channels and bends When navigating in narrow channels, you should keep to the right when it is safe and practical to do so.

6G8-9-1L-3 3/26/02 11:57 AM Page 22 E EMU01412 TRIMMING OUTBOARD MOTOR The trim angle of the outboard motor helps determine the position of the bow of the boat in the water. The correct trim angle will help improve performance and fuel economy while reducing strain on the engine. The correct trim angle depends upon the combination of boat, engine, and propeller. Correct trim is also affected by variables such as the load in the boat, sea conditions, and running speed.
6G8-9-1L-3 3/26/02 11:57 AM Page 23 E ADJUSTING TRIM ANGLE EMU00951 q 001557 Manual tilt model There are 4 or 5 holes provided in the clamp bracket to adjust the outboard motor trim angle. 1) Stop the engine. 2) Remove the trim angle adjusting rod 1 from the clamp bracket while tilting the motor up slightly. 3) Reposition the rod in the desired hole. To raise the bow (“trim-out”), move the rod away from the transom. To lower the bow (“trim-in”), move the rod toward the transom.
6G8-9-1L-3 3/26/02 11:57 AM Page 24 E EMU01558 Bow Up When the boat is on plane, a bow-up attitude results in less drag, greater stability and efficiency. This is generally when the keel line of the boat is up about 3 to 5 degrees. When trimmed out, the boat may have more tendency to steer to one side or the other. Compensate for this as you steer. The trim tab can also be adjusted to help offset this effect. q 105011 w Too much trim-out puts the bow of the boat too high in the water.
6G8-9-1L-3 3/26/02 11:57 AM Page 25 E EMU00285 TILTING UP/DOWN 105031 If the engine will be stopped for some time, or if the boat is moored in shallows, the engine should be tilted up to protect the propeller and casing from damage by collision with obstructions, and also to reduce salt corrosion. cC 8 Before tilting the motor, follow the procedures under “STOPPING ENGINE”. Never tilt the motor while the engine is running. Severe damage from overheating can result.
6G8-9-1L-3 3/26/02 11:57 AM Page 26 E EMU00286 PROCEDURE FOR TILTING UP Manual tilt model 1) Remove the fuel-line connection from the motor.
