operate your boat. It does not relieve you of the responsibility of
safely operating your boat. Avoid navigational hazards and
never leave the helm unattended.

water.
Use caution when operating the autopilot near hazards in the
water, such as docks, pilings, and other boats.

stops, acceleration, and turns.
When stowing or deploying the motor, be aware of the risk of
