CAREFUL NAVIGATION REQUIRES MORE THAN ONE METHOD TO
OBTAIN POSITION INFORMATION.

details of safe vehicle operation at all times.
It is the sole responsibility of the vehicle operator to operate that vehicle in a safe and proper manner. If the operator of a GPS-Equipped vehicle (boat) does not pay full attention to the details of driving at all times it is possible for an accident or collision to occur causing property damage, bodily injury or even death. The vehicle operator must pay complete attention to the details of operation while the
vehicle is running and moving
.
DO NOT RELY ON A GPS UNIT AND/OR BOATLANES WAYPONTS / TRAILS TO NAVIGATE IN THE DARK, AT NIGHT, IN FOG OR TIMES OF REDUCED VISIBILITY!
GPS waypoints and the BOATLANES LLC memory cards/dowloaded files will not give details above or below the water...Boat operator must maintain a visual on all surroundings at all times in order to operate safely.
Although BOATLANES LLC has taken every precaution to provide customers with waypoints/trails that indicate the safest possible boat running lanes
on the lakes for which it has been created...
It is the sole responsibility of the individual boat operator using the BOATLANES Products to watch for any hidden obstacles in, under, and around the water
--Specifically in the direct path of any of the BOATLANES WAYPOINTS AND/OR BOATLANES TRAILS.
Fog reduces visibility.
Operating a boat during foggy conditions is not advised.
Visibility is reduced in the dark.
Operating a boat in the dark is not advised.
Lake water levels are important as some of the BOATLANES trails on various lakes will not be accessible during periods of varying water levels. Some of the BOATLANES trails affected by water levels are appropriately marked with detailed information on the BOATLANES Installation Instructions included with your order.
(See BOATLANES installation instructions)
In some cases, however, the water levels fluctuate so frequently that there is no way to predict and accurately indicate those areas on some BOATLANES products.
It is for this reason that we recommend always using visual naviagion as you primary source of navigation and check the
CURRENT LAKE LEVELS before heading out to the lake.
