Hull and deck
Winter is the right season to inspect the hull and all load-bearing components
of your yacht. If the gel coat or protective coatings are damaged, you should
repair them or renew them completely. Sound advice on this is available in the
yard. You will find manufacturer’s notes for maintenance and caring for all
parts of the equipment in relevant paragraphs of this manual.
Cleaning
Please clean your yacht immediately after you have it taken out of the water.
High pressure cleaning devices will remove any growth. This is followed by
maintenance of the surface of the yacht. All paint manufacturers provide
detailed instructions for their coating systems.
For ships sailing salt waters:
Leftovers of salt absorb water and can cause a
faster corrosion. Whenever possible, you should rinse the yacht with fresh
water.
Furniture and upholstery
Moisture is the worst enemy of all inner spaces of the yacht. For preserving the
furniture and upholstery it is important that the yacht is well aired or
ventilated constantly or at least as often as possible.
Deck ventilators are standard equipment on all
SALONA
yachts (see deck
arrangement and equipment). Nevertheless, it is important that you do
something about fighting humidity and moisture in the yacht. You should first
inspect your yacht for eventual leakages and repair them immediately. Next,
make sure that your bilge is always dry and clean. Dirt can damage the bilge
pump and cause a breakdown. All furniture is made of high quality wood that
has been varnished several times. The surfaces should not be cleaned with
aggressive cleaning agents.
NOTICE
IT IS RECOMMENDED TO RE-VARNISH ALL
SCRATCHES OR OTHER DAMAGE IMMEDIATELY
TO PROTECT THE WOOD FROM WATER AND
SALT. THOSE SPOTS SHOULD BE GRAINED
WITH FINE GRAIN ABRASIVE PAPER BEFORE
VARNISHING THEM WITH THREE COATS.
