signals and adheres to common skiing,

wakeboarding and boating courtesy.

Inexperienced skiers might not know

that there are waterskiing hand signals,

similar to bicycle and motorcycle hand

signals, that can be used while skiing.

For example, giving a thumps up or

palm facing up signal while motioning

upwards means “speed up,” and the op-

posite, thumbs down or palms facing

down, means “slow down.” There are

also signals for speed—turn right, turn

left, stop—and signals for when you are

down in the water. Learning these help

the water skier communicate with the

boat over the loud roar of the engine.

The best way to utilize these signals is

by having a spotter. Many states require

at least two people be aboard the boat

while towing a skier—one driver and

one spotter. Having a spotter to watch

the water skier allows the driver of the

boat to concentrate on the water in front

of and around the boat. The spotter

watches the water skier and communi-

cates hand signals to the driver and also

can alert the driver when the skier falls.

• Never ride on the ski platform or hold

on to the ski platform while in the wa-

ter during engine operation, including

at idle. Carbon monoxide fumes are

expelled from the lower transom areas

of your boat and can cause death or se-

rious illness. See the Common Sense

Approach section following for more

details.

• Give immediate assistance to anyone

who falls because they are vulnerable

and may not be seen by other boaters.

Approach individuals in the water from

the leeward side (opposite the wind) and

turn OFF the engine prior to reaching

them. Propellers and engine exhaust are

only part of the potential problem for

someone in the water. Be aware that pro-

pellers may continue to turn for a period

of time after the engine is shut OFF, and

the edges are often sharp enough to eas-

ily cut skin or break bones.

• Ski and wakeboard only in acceptable

areas. Avoid restricted areas.

• The above mandates are not all-inclu-

sive. It is the boater’s responsibility to

operate the boat in a safe fashion and be-

come familiar with any and all rules and

regulations governing boat operation.

Do not tow more than two (2) persons at

one time on a tow tower. The tow tower

approved for use on your boat should be

used only for water skis, wakeboards or

recreational two-person towables, and not

for parasailing, kite ﬂying or towing other

boats. Do not add any attachments that are

not approved for use on your MasterCraf

boat. Do not climb on, sit on, stand on, jump

o of or dive o of the tower. Never allow

passengers to sit behind the tow rope at-

tachment point. Never allow loose tow rope

ends to dangle. Always be certain that all

bolts are in place and tight before and dur-

ing use. When the tower is up, watch for low

obstacles such as tree limbs, bridges or

power lines.
