D
ODGER
As
with
all
dodgers,
please
be
gentle.
If
the
glass
becomes
spotted
with
salt,
please
get
a
pot
of
fresh
water
from
the
galley
sink
and
“flood”
the
salt
crystals
off
the
plastic.
Our
dodger
has
some
very
handy
rails
on
the
back
and
sides
that
make
staying
upright
and
onboard
easier.
The
connector
canvas
between
the
dodger
and
bimini
can
be
removed
by
unzipping
it.
If
you
do
remove
it
please
roll
and
stow
it.
This
goes
for
the
window
covers
too,
which
are
typically
left
off
during
the
charter
season
and
stowed
in
a
cockpit
locker.

Cruising
should
be
done
at
engine
RPMs
of
1900
to
2500
(
the
boat
feels
most
comfortable
to
us
at
2200
to
2300).
The
following
table
gives
approximate
cruising
information:
RPM’s

The
ranges
listed
assume
a
25%
reserve
in
the
53
gal
fuel
tank
(so
40
gal
usable)
.
We
find
pushing
the
engine
beyond
2500
RPM
(or
8
knots)
does
little
good
as
the
boat
reaches
hull
speed
at
about
this
point.
There
is
a
blower
in
the
engine
compartment
which
is
vented
in
the
transom
walkway
above
the
swim
shower.
This
blower
runs
continuously
when
the
engine
power
is
on.
