Snaps should be lubricated periodically with petroleum jelly or silicone grease. Zippers should be
lubricated with silicone spray or paraffin.
The bimini top, side curtains, clear connector, back drop and aft curtain must be removed when
trailering. Canvas enclosures are not designed to withstand the extreme wind pressure encountered
while trailering and will be damaged. Always remove and properly store the enclosure before
trailering your boat.
Do not operate engines, fuel consuming heaters or burners with the canvas enclosures closed. The
cockpit must be open for legal ventilation and to prevent the possible accumulation of carbon
monoxide fumes, which could be lethal.
CARBON MONOXIDE IS A LETHAL, TOXIC GAS THAT IS COLORLESS AND
ODORLESS. IT IS A DANGEROUS GAS THAT WILL CAUSE DEATH IN CER-
TAIN LEVELS.
13.3 Cabin Interior
The cabin interior can be cleaned just like you would clean a home interior. To preserve the teak
woodwork, use teak oil. To maintain the carpeting, use a vacuum cleaner. Because air and sunlight
are very good cleansers, periodically put cushions, sleeping bags, etc. on deck, in the sun and fresh
air, to dry and air out. If cushions or equipment get wet with saltwater, remove and use clean, fresh
water to rinse off the salt crystals. Salt retains moisture and will cause damage. Dry thoroughly
and reinstall.
Vinyl headliner material should be cleaned periodically as explained in the previous section. Avoid
using products containing ammonia, bleach, or harsh chemicals as they can shorten the life of vinyl.
If you leave the boat for a long period of time, put all cushions on their sides, open all interior cabin
and locker doors, and hang a commercially available mildew protector in the cabin.
ALWAYS READ THE LABEL CAREFULLY ON MILDEW PROTECTORS. RE-
MOVE THE PROTECTOR AND ALLOW THE CABIN TO VENTILATE COM-
PLETELY BEFORE USING THE CABIN.
