Operating By Minors
Minors must be supervised by an adult whenever operating a boat.
Many states have laws regarding the minimum age and licensing
requirements of minors. Be sure to contact the state boating
authorities for information.
Overloading
DO NOT overload your boat. Your boat is equipped with a required
capacity plate indicating the maximum acceptable load as
determined by the manufacturer following certain Federal
guidelines. If in doubt, contact your Correct Craft Dealer.
The capacity plate is used by boat manufacturers participating in
the National Marine Manufacturers Association certification
program. Correct Craft has submitted your model for inspection
and compliance with their guidelines.
The capacity plate has the following information permanently
printed on it. It is attached to the boat by the throttle for the
operator to read before they drive the boat.
