0.1.22 Before winter storage
Clean the boat thoroughly after lifting it out of the water. Remove all fouling and
apply a thin layer of wax or Vaseline over the boat. This will ease the
maintenance next year. Spray all electrical contacts with anti-corrosion spray,
suitable for electrical equipment.
0.1.23 Normal maintenance
Remember that a well kept boat has a higher second hand value. Oil and grease
can leave permanent stains. If you need to rub and polish the boat it is important
to wax it.

0.48 Maintenance of the teak deck
The deck supplier recommends that the boat owner tests and uses those
products, which give the best result. The wood must first be well cleaned with
soap and water. Do not use a hard brush. Do not use high pressured water. The
wood must be totally dry before fat/grease/oil is applied. This will give the teak its
color but many boaters prefer the teak to go grey. There are many products on
the market and Marex recommends oiling the deck with oil without chemical
additives. To get the best result the teak can be sanded with fine sandpaper and
then oiled.
