Bimini Top or sunshade must not be used when the
vessel speed exceeds 45 MPh. Damage to boat
or bimini may occur.
Removing or installing canvas on the water can
be difficult since rough water or wakes can cause
you or your passengers to lose their balance while
attempting canvas removal or installation.
for safety and ease of installation and removal of
canvas, use at least two people.
The following canvas options are available for the
250 Sportfish:
• Cockpit Cover

elecTric horn
The horn is operated by a switch on the dash and
is protected by a fuse under the dash. There is no
maintenance required on the horn itself, although
it is advisable to avoid spraying water directly into
the horn. Check periodically to ensure that horn is
still operational.

The depth finder that may be
installed in your boat is a high-
performance digital sonar (See
figure 7.2.1). It works only off the
bottom signal and operation is
completely automatic. There are
no sensitivity or noise controls.
all this is made possible by the
computer built inside.
Since the depth finder is an automatic sonar, all
you have to do is turn the power on. It will give
you a water depth reading within seconds. Once
it finds the bottom, the depth finder locks on to it
and automatically adjusts the sensitivity and noise
suppression circuits. It will track the bottom at
speeds over 70 MPh.
Do not rely on the depth fider to determine a safe
depth for swimming. The depth finder reads from
the middle of the boat, not the back or front.

DANGER
!
If the cockpit is totally enclosed with canvas covers
and curtains while engine is running or boat is
moving, carbon monoxide will build up and cause
death or permanent injury.
Do not use the rear (aft) curtain or camper top while
engine is running or boat is moving.
In rainy and/or cold weather, fresh air must circulate
through boat to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning.
See Section 1.3, Carbon Monoxide, for more
details.
! DANGER
Exhaust fumes from engines contain deadly carbon
monoxide gas (CO). Boats with canvas or with poor
ventilation are most likely to collect fumes.
CO sickness symptoms include headache, nausea
and dizziness. Do not mistake these symptoms for
sea sickness.
Ventilate boat. See Section 1.3, Carbon Monoxide,
for more details.
