The Buster Mini does not have a pump. The boat should be drained when moored
using draining equipment (Easy Bail) or a bailer. Draining equipment operates using
water currents: when the boat is planing, open the valve using the lever located
under the rear bench to discharge the bilge water via the low-pressure chamber.
Alternatively, the boat can be drained on land, but it should not be drained when
floating stationary or moving slowly.

Stability and buoyancy
The stability of Buster boats is excellent thanks to their hull shape and balanced
distribution of masses. However, please bear in mind that large breaking waves
always represent a significant danger to the boat's stability.
Please also note that any load placed above floor level reduces the boat's stability
and may increase the risk of capsizing. It is strictly forbidden to place loads on the
roof of a boat with a cabin. Any change in the distribution of mass may affect the
boat's stability, design trim and performance significantly. Contact your local Buster
dealer if you are planning such a change.
The amount of water in the bilge should be minimized because freely moving water
always reduces the boat's stability.
Please note that the boat's stability may be reduced when it is towing or being
towed.
The Buster XL, XL Pro, XLe Convertible, XLe, X, Le, Lx, L Pro, L, M, Mcc, S, Scc,
XS, XSr, and Mini are equipped with floats that enable the boat to carry the load
specified in section 5.4 even if it is flooded. The gangways and hatches on boats
with cabins should be kept shut in stormy conditions to prevent the boat from taking
on water.

Engine and fuel system
The Buster Magnum M5, Magnum Pro, SuperMagnum, Magnum, Cabin, XXL, XL,
XL Pro, XLe Convertible, XLe, X, Le, Lx, and L Pro have a fixed fuel tank, which is
attached to the bilge area about a meter from the transom. The Buster L, M, Mcc S,
Scc, XSr, XS, and Mini have removable fuel tanks. Stop the engine and extinguish
The bilge pump is not designed to control flooding caused by
running aground or by any other structural damage.
Check the functioning of the bilge pump at regular intervals.
Clear the pump's suction tube.
The owner or operator is responsible for ensuring that at
least one bucket or bailer is kept aboard the board. It must be
attached to the boat by a rope to prevent loss.
