ALUMINUM    SAILDRIVES

   

   

Most   of   these   areas   are   made   of   aluminum   and   it   is   important   to   ensure   the   surfaces   are   
properly   prepared   and   primed   in   order   that   the   paint   adheres   well   and   the   metal   is   protected   
from   galvanic   reactions.      Aluminum   Saildrives   cannot   be   painted   with   copper   base   anti-­‐
fouling   paints,   so   it   is   important   that   the   antifouling   for   these   areas   be   specified   for   use   on   
aluminum.      Interlux   makes   Micron   33   Aerosol,   Trilux,   Tri-­‐Lux   II   and   Micron   33   for   use   on   
aluminum.      Check   with   the   specific   Saildrive   manufacturer

   

for   recommended    painting   

procedures.

   

   

TARTAN   YACHTS   DOES   NOT   OFFER   THIS   DOCUMENT    AS   A   WARRANTY    FOR   BOTTOM   

PAINT   APPLICATION    OR   THE   PERFORMANCE    OF   BOTTOM   PAINT   APPLIED.

   

   

   

   

PLEASE    CONTACT    THE    FACTORY    IF    YOU    HAVE    ANY    QUESTIONS    OR    CONCERNS    ABOUT   THE   
BOTTOM   PAINTING   PROCEDURES.   

   

When    applying    seasonal    applications    of    bottom    paint,    it    is    extremely    important    that    the   
coatings    be    the    best    quality    and    that    they    be    applied    carefully    and    strictly    according    to   
manufacturer's    instructions.    Thereafter,    the    routine    maintenance    of    the    bottom    will    be   
much   easier   with   the   best   possible   results.   

   

The    frequency    and    amount    of    maintenance    required    on    the    bottom    is    governed    by    the   
nature    of   the   water   in    which      the    yacht      is    kept,      and    to    some      extent,      by    the    use    it    gets.      
If    the    waters      are    polluted      or    are   conducive    to    marine    growth,    the    yacht    may    have    to    be   
hauled    frequently    and   the   bottom    scrubbed    down   with    brushes,    detergent    and    fresh    water   
immediately    upon    hauling.         If    for    any    other    reason    the    yacht    is   hauled   and   it   is   planned   to   
keep    it    out    of    the    water    for    any    length    of    time,    the    bottom    should    be    scrubbed    down   
immediately   before   any   marine   growth   dries   and   hardens   upon   the   bottom.   

   

12.5                  Cove   Stripe   

   

The   cove   (just   below   the   deck   line)   is   colored    vinyl   tape.   The   cove   stripe   may   be   cleaned    by   
using    a   mild   detergent    solution.       The    vinyl    tape,    if    needing    replacement,    can    be    purchased   
through   your   Tartan   Dealer.   

   

12.6                  Standing   Rigging   

   

Standing    rigging    is    defined    as    those    fixed    parts    of    the    rigging,    which    support    the    mast.         
The    standing    rigging    and    all    the    components    listed    under    "Stainless    Steel"    should    be   
checked    each    time    before    going    sailing    and    given    a    detailed    monthly    examination.         
Turnbuckles    should    be    inspected    to    make    sure    that    cotter    pins    are    in    place    at    top    and   
bottom,    that    cotter    pin    ends    are    turned    back    carefully    and    that    they    are    covered    with   
plastic    tape.       Each    spreader    should    be   checked    that    the    pins    are    properly    in   place    and    that   
the    spreader    is    not    out    of    alignment.        The    end    of    the    spreader    where    the    shroud    passes
