Thank you for purchasing the Pro Fisherman ™ ! We at
AquaCraft know how exciting a new R/C boat purchase can
be and we know you’re anxious to get started, but please take
time to read these instructions carefully and completely

susceptible to possible interference from other R/C
transmitters, paging systems, or other electrical noise.

• Do not touch the propeller anytime the electronics are
turned “ON.” Pay close attention to items such as loose
clothing, shirt sleeves, ties, scarves, long hair or any
loose objects that may come in contact with the spinning
propeller. If your fingers, hands, etc. come in contact
with the spinning propeller, you may be severely injured.

damage and severe personal injury if a collision occurs.
Never run this boat in the presence of swimmers or where
