COMMISSIONING
4.1 Preparation.
Your RS Vision comes complete with all the components necessary to take
the boat sailing. In order to commission it, you will need the following tools:
•
Pliers or a shackle key.
•
Small, flat bladed screw driver.
•
PVC (electricians) tape.
You may require other tools later, should you wish to make any settings or
tuning adjustments to the boat and rig.
DO NOT use a knife or other sharp object to cut through packaging
containing parts – you may damage the contents!
Whilst your RS Vision has been carefully prepared, it is important that new
owners should check shackles and knots are tight. This is especially important
when the boat is new, as travelling can loosen seemingly tight fittings and
knots. It is also important to regularly check such items prior to sailing.
4.2 Unpacking.
Having unpacked your RS Vision you should check that you have all the items
listed below and in picture 4.1 and picture 4.2 before throwing away any of the
packing as there may be some small items still wrapped.
•
1 x RS Vision hull.
•
1 x mast.

1 x gnav bar.
