Maintenance
The materials and equipment of your boat have been selected for
their high quality and performance and for their ease of maintenance.
However you must carry out a small amount of maintenance in order
to protect your boat from external elements (salt, sun, corrosion...).
Clean your boat preferably on shore with fresh water.
Use as few cleaning products as possible.
Do not use solvents or aggressive detergents.
Do not discharge cleaning products into the sea.
Regularly brush the deck with a degreasing cleanser and fresh water.
DECK FITTINGS
- Thoroughly rinse all your equipment with fresh water.
- Periodically lubricate blocks, sheaves, turnbuckles, winches, tracks
and travelers with water-repellent grease.
- Stainless steel that is showing small spots or blisters of rust should
be cleaned and polished with a chrome and steel renovator.
EXTERNAL TEAK FITTINGS / TECK DECK
Regularly clean all exterior wood with fresh water using a sponge (if
necessary some mild soap may be added).
PLEXIGLASS
- Rinse Plexiglass with fresh water.
- Polish with a soft cloth soaked in liquid paraffin.
- Use polishing paste to remove scratches.

Haul out
Applying a tin-free anti-fouling paint every year will avoid the need for
tedious and frequent haul-outs. An epoxy undercoat is recommended.
You are reminded that sanding before applying antifouling paint
attacks the gel coat and impairs its durability.
Polishing will restore your boat's original shine. If a persistent and
isolated problem arises, contact your dealer.
