11.6.1 Leaving the mooring

The yacht is steered by turning the wheel, which moves the stern drive.
If necessary and/or when manoeuvring in restricted waters, the yacht can be manoeuvred using the engine.

Bear in mind that the effect of the rotation of the stern drive is proportional to the propeller rpm and the yacht’s momentum, and particularly in forward gear; as a result, with high rpm and high speed, the effect of the rotation of the stern drive is high, while with engine in neutral and low draft, the rudder angle reaction is greatly reduced.

WARNING

Before casting off the mooring, disconnect the cable connecting to the shore charging point.

CAUTION

It is the Owner’s/the operators’ responsibility to make sure that the mooring ropes, the towing ropes, the anchor chain, the anchor lines and the anchor are suitable for the intended use of the unit, i.e. the resistance of the ropes or chains must not exceed 80% of the resistance to breaking of the relevant strength point.
