There are two bow eyes (1) and two aft eyes (2) installed to lift your boat.
Always use all four eyes to lift the boat.
You should always use only certified, verified and suitable lifting slings for lift of your boat.
Inspect lifting slings before use. There should be no damage, tears, abrasion. Hooks of all lifting slings must have locks to
prevent spontaneous or accidental disconnection from the lifting eyes of the boat.
The hooks of all lifting slings should be
the right size for your boat's lifting eyes.
Inspect boat’s lifting eyes and adjacent fiberglass before lifting of your boat. There should be no damage, cracks, bends.
Make sure that the front slings deflect no more than 30º and the stern slings deflect no more than 15º (see Fig.19) to
avoid damaging the boat superstructure.
Fig.19 shows the center of gravity of a boat with a motor, fuel and equipment from the manufacturer. Boat's center of
gravity of your boat may differ from showing. It depends on the equipment, the boat load and the weight of the installed
motor.
Before lifting the boat all equipment must be securely fixed. If this is not possible, all non-fixed equipment should be
removed from the boat or stored in lockers.
All boat hatches must be locked before the boat is lifted.
People cannot be onboard during the lifting.
Never stand under or near the boat suspended.
Never use to lift the other elements of the design of the boat, except for the lifting eyes.
Do not use other slinging methods than those specified.
Always check the lifting eyes, the boat hull around them, and the boat lifting straps before use.
