Curious about a VP sticker on the transom shield. What does it say?

Both these photos are taken on the starboard inside of a SP-A transom shield.

First photo shows a sticker that is easy to read (at least for me).
In that same photo, you can also see the hydraulic lines going into the transom shield.
Under those lines, on the "true" starboard side of the shield, there is another sticker (2nd photo) that I assume can only be read before the shield is mounted to the transom. You can see one end of it in the photo, but one needs to have some pretty good "angle vision" to be able to read it...

Anyone has any idea what it says?

"If you can read this while on the water, your transom has failed, put on a PFD now!!!" :D

Honestly don't know. Someone else may. If you feel ambitious you could always try to see if you can get an inspection mirror in there (sold at an autoparts store/Sears craftsman) and try to decipher what it says with the mirror.

I have that mirror (Craftsman), no chance to get mirror in and eyes positioned to read. Christmas gift from an understanding wife:)

But, was more just curious since I had not seen that one before. Was only "down there" to spray some small amount of WD40 and ensure that the (on the surface) corroded hydraulic connectors were not stuck.

Mirror and digital camera/ cell phone maybe? Probably wouldn't be able to read the sticker in it's entirety this way, but you would at least may be able to get the jest of what it says.
