Cabin Door
The sliding cabin door is made of acrylic plastic
glass and slides on a top and bottom track. A
lockable latch secures the door in the closed
position. There is a special hook on the bulk-
head next to the door to secure it in the open
position.
It is very important that the cabin door is secured
properly in the open or closed position. The
cabin door is heavy and if the door is not
properly latched, it could slide when the boat
rocks and pinch someone’s fingers between the
door and the bulkhead or damage the door.
When closing the door, make sure you push the door against the door jam with enough pressure
to allow the latch to secure the door. When the door is open, it must be properly secured with the
hook.
The door is made of acrylic plastic glass. Acrylic glass scratches easily and can chip. Always make
sure the bulkhead bumper and the vinyl-covered latch are in good condition. They should be
changed whenever they show signs of deterioration from the exposure to elements. Please refer
to the Routine Maintenance chapter for information on the proper care and maintenance of acrylic
plastic glass.
NEVER LEAVE THE CABIN DOOR UNLATCHED. THE CABIN DOOR IS
HEAVY AND SLIDES EASILY. IF THE DOOR IS LEFT UNLATCHED, IT
COULD SLIDE UNEXPECTEDLY AS THE BOAT ROCKS, DAMAGING THE
DOOR OR CAUSING AN INJURY TO A PASSENGER. ALWAYS MAKE SURE
THE DOOR IS PROPERLY LATCHED IN THE OPEN OR CLOSED POSITION.
Hard Top
The optional hard top consists of a laminated fiberglass top mounted to a welded aluminum frame
that is bolted to the deck. It is designed to accommodate radio antennas, radar antennas and
navigation lights. It could also be equipped with optional top gun outriggers and/or rod holders.
The hard top is not designed to support the additional weight of items like an instrument locker or
a life raft. Radar and electronics antennas must be mounted to the top between the front and rear
legs. Do not mount any antennas or equipment to the brow area forward of the front legs. The
hard top frame is not designed to support the weight of accessories in this area and could be
damaged. The starboard rear leg is the wire chase for lights and antennas mounted to the top.
