FOREWORD
Dear Buster boat owner, Thank you for choosing Buster. We wish you many enjoyable
moments with your craft.
The purpose of this owner's manual is to help you use your boat in a safe and
enjoyable way. This owner's manual includes detailed information about the boat and its
accessories as well as instructions for use and correct maintenance of the boat. Please
read the manual carefully and familiarise yourself with your boat before using it.
The owner's manual alone is not a sufficient source of information on seamanship
and boating safety. If Buster is your first boat or the boat type is not familiar to you,
please make sure you obtain sufficient experience in handling and using the boat
before assuming the responsibilities of the boat master. Your local Buster dealer, local
boating clubs and national motor boat and sailing associations will provide you with
more information about local boating schools and will be able to recommend qualified
instructors.
Make sure the expected wind and sea conditions match the design category of your boat
and that you and your crew are able to navigate the boat in the conditions. Wind and
sea conditions for design category C range from storm to strong wind with the danger of
exceptional waves and gusts. These are dangerous conditions that necessitate a skilled
and fit crew and a well-maintained boat.
This owner's manual is not a detailed service and troubleshooting guide. In case of
problems please contact your local Buster dealer. Only use the services of repair
companies recommended by your local Buster dealer. Modifications that may affect the
safety features of the boat may only be performed with the builder's written authorisation.
The builder assumes no responsibility for unauthorised modifications.
In some countries operating the craft may require a permit or authorisation, and special
regulations may apply.
Always keep your boat in good condition. Carefully observe any signs of wear caused by
age, heavy use or abuse. Any boat, regardless of how strong it is, may sustain severe
damage if used incorrectly. Inappropriate use of the boat is not part of responsible
boating. Always adapt the speed and heading of your boat to the prevailing sea
conditions.
If your craft is equipped with a life raft, study the instructions carefully. The boat must be
equipped with the appropriate safety equipment (life vests, safety harnesses, etc.) as
required by the boat type and the weather conditions. In some countries this equipment
is compulsory. The crew must be familiar with the correct use and operation of all
safety equipment (including rescuing a person who has fallen overboard and towing)
in emergencies. Yachting schools and clubs arrange rescue training and practice
opportunities on a regular basis.
Everyone aboard the craft should wear a suitable personal flotation device, life vest or
boating vest when on the deck. Please note that in some countries national boating
regulations may require everyone aboard to always wear a personal flotation device
while on board.
PLEASE RETAIN THIS MANUAL AND PROVIDE IT TO THE BOAT'S NEXT OWNER IF
YOU SELL YOUR BUSTER.
