Impact With Underwater Hazards

Reduce speed and proceed with caution whenever you’re driving a

boat in shallow water areas or in areas where the waters are

suspected of having underwater obstacles that could be struck by the

sterndrive or the boat bottom. The most important thing you can

do to help reduce injury or impact damage from striking a

floating or underwater object is control the boat speed. Under

these conditions, boat speed should be kept to a minimum

planing speed of (15 to 25 MPH).

Striking a floating/underwater object may result in an infinite number

of situations. Some of these situations could result in the following:

• The boat could move suddenly in a new direction. Such a sharp

change in direction or turn can cause occupants to be thrown out

of their seats or out of the boat.

• A rapid reduction in speed. This will cause occupants to be thrown

forward, even out of the boat.

• Impact damage to the sterndrive and/or boat.
