Key Locks, Carpet and Upholstery
KEY LOCKS, CARPET AND UPHOLSTERY
Your Ranger
®
boat has been equipped with top-quality marine grade
key locks to secure your storage areas. Should your boat be subjected to
use in or near salt water, care should be taken to flush the locks out
thoroughly with fresh water to prevent corrosion.
The carpet in your boat is the finest grade available. Although the
special backing is RESISTANT to oil and gasoline, spills should be
removed with soap and water to maintain the good looks and extend the
carpet life. A car-wash is suitable for washing and rinsing your carpet as
well as cleaning the fiberglass surfaces.
Your Ranger upholstery is top-grade marine vinyl. Naturally, the
suppleness and color fidelity of the upholstery is best maintained by
storing your boat out of direct sunlight. Cleaning and conditioning of your
upholstery is best accomplished with an approved, top-quality vinyl
cleaner. To loosen stubborn soil or embedded dirt in textured surfaces,
use a soft bristle brush, your approved cleanser, followed by wiping with
a damp sponge. See specific suggestions for cleaning of marine vinyl on
pages 35 and 36.

The popular and effective “fish scents” that
are commonly sprayed on lures today will
cause deterioration of the carpet backing. Use caution to spray these
formulas well away from your boat carpet! Any spills should be cleaned
up promptly.
