WET STORAGE PROCEDURES: Special care for boats
that are moored: If permanently moored in salt water
or fresh water, your boat will collect marine growth on
its bottom. This will detract from the boat's beauty and
greatly affect its performance. There are two methods
of preventing this:
• Periodically haul the boat out of the water and scrub
the bottom with a bristle brush and a solution of soap
and water.
• Paint the hull below the waterline with a good grade
of antifouling paint. DO NOT paint the engine drive
surfaces.
NOTE: There are EPA regulations regarding bottom paint
application. Consult your marine paint dealer for proper
application methods.
SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS: Be conscious of the
security of your boat. Always remove the key from the
ignition, store your boat in a secure place, put a lock on
the trailer and if location permits chain your trailer to a
pole or other permanently fixed object. Remove and
stow any removable electronic gear (fishing poles, skis,
etc.) normally left aboard your boat.
