Maintenance
General care and cleaning
Top quality virgin grade polyethylene is used in the manufacture of this boat, which contains powerful
ultra violet stabilizers designed to survive in harsh environments. Polyethylene is impervious to
osmosis, corrosion, rot, and rust, and has no gelcoat or paint to maintain.
Wash down using a mild environmentally friendly detergent is recommended after use in salt water.
Avoid using oily or abrasive substances. Read labels and instructions carefully to avoid products that
could damage polyethylene or other plastics. DO NOT use products that contain phosphates, chlorine,
solvents, non-biodegradable or petroleum based products. Citrus-based cleaners are excellent for
marine cleaning purposes, and are safe to use. Household cleaners should be used sparingly and not
discharged into waterways. Never mix cleaners and be sure to work in a well ventilated area
For engine care /maintenance refer to the manufacturers recommendations
Repairs to hull/deck
Minor abrasions
These can be lightly scraped or sanded back and the surface heated/flamed to restore to a shiny
finish. Use a hair dryer or hot air gun to gently heat the area and restore the finish. Be careful not to
over heat and deform the plastic or scorch the surface.
Major Repairs
The polyethylene thermoplastic construction means it can be repaired by Plastic Welding.
Small indentations can be repaired by applying heat to the area and gently returning the plastic to it’s
original shape. In many instances minor dents will come out if left in a warm area or in the sun due to
the plastics memory effect.
Please contact Marine Revolution or your local dealer for further details.
Storing Your Boat
Your boat is UV stabilized and uses only stainless steel hardware, so it will stand up well to the
elements for many years. To maximize the life of your boat we recommend the following:
•
Protect your boat with a storage cover or flip it upside down when left for any period.
•
If your boat will remain unused for long periods, store it indoors if possible.
•
If you keep your boat in a windy area, tie it down
•
Ensure your boat is stored in a position that provides adequate support for the hull. Failure to
do so may result in distortion or indentations.
•
Store the boat with the engine in the running position.
•
Consult your engine owner’s manual for specific storage and winterising information.
