Give way to craft under sail. Hazardous Conditions Keep track of weather developments and avoid hazardous conditions if possible. When forced to operate your Pro Line in storm conditions: * Wear PFD's * Stow loose gear and equipment. * Place heavy items as low as possible.

Launching- * If possible use a lookout. * Back down the ramp until wheels are under water or the stern of the boat just starts to float ( keeping perpendicular to the shore). * Loosen bow strap, board the boat, lower the motor. * Start the engine and check the bilge for leaks.
* Make sure engine cooling water intakes are submerged. * Lock helm seats to face straight forward. * Attach safety lanyard. Start the engine in accordance with the manufactures recommendations. After your engine starts make sure to observe a few basic rules to ensure that the engine is functioning properly: * Verify engine cooling water circulation.
Trim Conditions Prop If your Pro Line was ordered with a factory installed engine it will have a propeller that has been performance tested to provide the best all-round performance for your engine /hull combination at sea level. In some situations, it may be desirable to re- prop your Pro Line to enhance desired performance needs.
Fiberglass / Gel Coat The gel coated fiber glass on your Pro Line provides a smooth easy to clean and maintain surface. Regular cleaning and waxing will preserve the finish on your boat for many years to come.
Stainless Steel / Aluminum Stainless steel is used on bow rail and deck fittings on your Pro Line. Stainless is corrosion resistant but not corrosion proof. If used in contact with sulfides, chloride salts, or rusting metals, stainless will show rust spots, discolor or corrode. The grain structure of stainless, when modified by welding processes has increased susceptibility to micro- corrosion (invisible to the unaided eye) and embrittelment.
If you moor your Pro Line in salt water for extended periods make sure to check the anti-corrosion anode often for operation. Make sure the anode surface is exposed and not caked with corrosion and scale. If the anode is eroded renew it.
