Hunter 33 • Maintenance

14.2

Maintenance

You  have made the  investment to purchase  your  boat. 
Now is the time to take care of it.  Here we will supply you
with the knowledge to do just that.

We will separate this chapter into sections that deal with 
each part of your boat.  The exterior, the interior, and the
mechanical components.  At the end of the chapter, we 
will offer  you some maintenance tips and also give  you
a schedule of maintenance to be performed.  Remember 
that any manufacturer’s recommended maintenance 
schedules supersedes ours and their specific schedules 
or tasks should be performed.

14.1  Maintenance Materials

Following is a list of tools we recommend that you carry 
on board your  yacht.  Note that this list is the minimum
required:

Flashlight
Vise grips (small and medium)
Needle nose pliers
Screw and nut driver set with ratchet handle
Multi-bladed knife
Set of screwdrivers (Phillips and flat blade, including 
“shorty” in both
Offset screwdriver
Set of combination wrenches (box at one end, open end 
at the other)
Extra batteries for flashlight
Set of tubing wrenches
Wire crimping and stripping tool
Hacksaw

14.1.2  Recommended Maintenance Materials

We recommend that you carry the following on board
your yacht:

Plastic marine tape
Instant glue
Silicone rubber
Electrical tape
Two-part epoxy adhesive
Engine oil
Spray lubricant

14.1.3  Recommended Spare Parts

We recommend that you carry the following spare parts
on board your yacht:

Engine oil (1 case) (Refer to engine manual).
Antifreeze (5 gallons) (Refer to engine manual).
Transmission  fluid  (4 quarts)  (Refer to transmission 
manual)
Oil filters (2)
Coolant pump impeller and cover plate gaskets (2)
Spare engine hoses and clamps (2)
Electric fuses
Fuel filters (4)
Water hose or pipe for freshwater unions
Pipe or hose unions
Engine accessory belts (2 complete sets)
Propeller and shaft (for extended cruises)

To keep the exterior of your boat in good condition, you
should follow a periodic preventive maintenance program 
and practice  good storage  habits.  In this section, are 
important suggestions that will help keep your boat in the
best possible condition.

14.2  Exterior

14.2.1  Care and Maintenance During Summer 
Months

Before storing  your boat, remove loose items such as 
cushions, towels, and similar items.  Water trapped under 
these items can cause gelcoat discoloration and mildew. 

After each use, rinse the entire boat with fresh water.  If 
the boat has been used in brackish or salt water, use a
mild soap during the washdown.

Covering  your boat between uses will protect the finish 
from direct sunlight.  Do not cover it with anything that 
will not allow moisture to evaporate, for example, sheet 
plastic.

14.2.2  Finish Protection

Waxing two or four times a year is recommended.  If you
are in a climate where you use your boat year round, wax
your boat every three months.  If  you have a summer 
boating season, wax at the beginning of the season and
before winter storage.

Waxing helps protect your boat from everyday elements. 
Use a wax recommended for fiberglass (gelcoat) finishes. 
Many automatic, over-the-counter waxes can be used.
