Post-Operation Checks - Yamaha 195S 2021 Owner's/Operator's Manual

Operation
To cross a wake or swell, change your speed
and choose the angle at which you cross the
wake or swell. Usually, a slower speed and
"quartering" the wake (crossing at an angle)
will reduce the jolt.
Two other things you may notice. The first is
that crossing a group of wakes or swells is
not as easy or smooth as crossing just one
wake. The second is that when you quarter
the wake or swell, the boat will try to steer
away from the wake or swell. When crossing
at a 45° angle, you may not notice this, but at
a smaller angle, say 10°, it can be very strong.
Be prepared to steer and balance as neces-
sary.

These post-operation procedures are devel-
oped to help preserve the long-term appear-
ance and reliability of your boat. Perform
these procedures as soon as possible after
the boat is loaded back on the trailer after the
day's use.
Some owners prefer to moor their boat sea-
sonally, rather than keeping it on the trailer
between uses. Extended mooring is not
recommended. Proper flushing of the cool-
ing system is not possible with the boat in the
water. In addition, conditions such as stray
electrical voltage in the water, marine organ-
isms, and saltwater corrosion can adversely
affect the life of many boat components.
NOTICE: Leaving the boat in the water for
extended periods will accelerate the rate
of normal deterioration of the jet pump
components, sacrificial anodes, hull finish
and other components.
If you do decide to moor your boat, be sure to
remove it from the water periodically to clean
the hull and jet pump area. The frequency of

maintenance required will depend upon
whether the water is salt water or fresh water
and other local water conditions.
