Shifting to “Bow Down”
“Bow Down” puts more of the bow in the
water. This gives the water vehicle more
“hook”, which enhances turning perfor-
mance. This position will also help the
water vehicle get up on plane more quick-
ly. At higher speeds, however, the water
vehicle will have greater tendency to
“bow steer” and follow waves and wakes
in the water. Fuel economy and maxi-
mum speed are also reduced.
Shifting to “Bow Up”
“Bow Up” puts less of the bow in the
water. There is less water resistance, so
straight-ahead acceleration when on
plane and top speed are enhanced. In
some conditions, however, the vehicle
may tend to “porpoise” (hop in the
water). If the vehicle is porpoising, choose
Neutral or Bow Down trim.

OVERHEAT WARNING SYSTEM
The engine has an overheat warning
device. If the engine starts to overheat,
the overheat warning symbol/indicator
begins to blink, the buzzer sounds, and
the engine speed will be limited to about
3,000 r/min.
If this happens, check for water discharge
at the cooling water pilot outlet(s). If there
is no discharge of water, beach the vehi-
cle and check the jet intake grille and
impeller for clogging.
