You must be with your boat for it to be inspected.  Have your hoods open, handle poles up and seats or hoods removed.  Your boat must be tech inspected before you will be allowed to practice.  Here are some of the things we are checking: proper race numbers, grips secured and do not turn, battery cables secured, zip-ties on all fuel lines, bow eyes removed, bumpers are in place and approved helmet and lifevest.  We also will check to make sure that your tether works properly. Safety Inspection personnel will have gauges on hand to check intake grate and sponson depth, however, it is the riders responsibility to ask the inspector to check these items for compliance.
