RECORD KEEPING
________________
Boat Record
Use the Boat Record (included at the end of
this manual) to record all important information
concerning your yacht and its equipment. After
your dealer has recorded all the information,
remove the record from your Owner ’s Manual
and store in a safe, convenient location.
Do not
keep this form aboard your yacht.
Float Plan
The Float Plan (included at the end of this
manual) provides a record of your destination,
departure and return times, yacht description,
passenger list and other information about the
trip you have planned. At the bottom of the
form is a space for listing emergency telephone
numbers in case your return is delayed past the
expected time. It also has space for indicating
information about the person
fi
ling this report.
Leave a copy of the completed form ashore with
a responsible person. Carry the original form
with you on your cruise, and if you deviate from
your original plan, be certain to notify the person
with whom you left the copy of your change in
plans. Silverton recommends you make several
copies of this form each yachting season to en-
sure you have an adequate supply.
Maintenance Log
The Maintenance Log (included at the end of
this manual) provides the means to keep mainte-
nance records in one location. Using this log will
allow you to track maintenance work completed
and to determine when speci
fi
c maintenance is
required. Your Silverton Dealer will also
fi
nd
this information helpful if you decide to sell or
trade your yacht. The maintenance record will
make your yacht a more desirable purchase be-
cause it tells prospective buyers that you have
maintained the proper care of the vessel on a
regular basis.
