MAINTENANCE OF THE HULL
The materials and equipments of your boat have been selected because of their high quality
and performance and ease of maintenance. However you shall carry out a minimum
maintenance in order to protect your boat from outside attacks (salt, sun, electrolysis ...).
Preferably wash your boat on shore.
Use as few cleaning agents as possible.
Don't use solvents or aggressive detergent agents. Don't discharge your cleaning product into the water.
CARREENING
The lower hull of your boat should be covered with an anti-fouling paint which will prevent the
adhesion of marine growth.
The nature of the water in which the boat sails will determine the choice of the anti-fouling paint as well
as the frequency of hull stripping and painting. Do not hesitate to take advice from your specialists.
Refer to chapter 12 for launching instructions.
If cleaning of the anti-fouling paint has to be done with a high pressure hose:
- The water temperature must not exceed 15 °C.
- The water pressure must not exceed 150 bars.
- The distance between the hose nozzle and the hull must not be less than 10 centimetres.
Follow the supplier's instructions very closely when applying the anti-fouling paint.
All these hull maintenance operations can be carried out by your dealer.
Before applying anti-fouling paint never:
- Do any sanding down.
- Use any other solvents than ethylic alcohol.
- Use detergents under pressure.
- Use scrapers.
- Do any sanding other than a light rubbing down by hand with a grade 400 wet abrasive paper
(for the first application).
