The orange nose is part of the rules ... firstly designed to find the boat easily if it goes under (we have flotation in the nose so that will always be visible). The number on the orange part of the nose tells the divers how many pilots to look for ... ours has a 2 on it

When you turn the key wait for about 10 -15 seconds before you start the engines. Starting the engines to quick will set off a fault in the system. Had this happen with our new boat.
