• Make sure the hitch is properly support-
ed.
•
Check the tires once each season. Add
enough air for the correct amount of
inflation for the tires.
• Make sure the engines are in the down
position.
Custom-made cradles, with protective pad-
ding on the bunks, are available through your
Tiara Yachts dealer.
When storing the boat on a lift or cradle:
•
The cradle must be specific for boat
storage. Make sure the lift or cradle is
well-supported with the bow high enough
to provide proper drainage of the bilge.
The cradle or lift must be in the proper
fore and aft position to properly support
the hull. When the cradle or lift is in the
correct location, the bunks should match
the bottom of the hull and should not be
putting pressure on the lifting strakes.
• Make sure the engines are in the down
position.
• Make sure bunks and rollers are ad-
justed so they are not putting pressure
on the lifting strakes and are providing
enough support for the hull. Hull damage
resulting from improper cradle or trail-
er support is not covered by the Tiara
warranty.
12.3 Recommissioning
DO NOT operate the boat unless it is com
-
pletely assembled. Keep all fasteners tight.
Keep adjustments according to specifica-
tions.
Before launching the boat, make sure to
install hull drain plug(s).
Recommissioning the boat after storage:
• Charge and install the batteries.
• Install hull drain plug(s).
• Check the bilge area and all thru-hulls
and seacocks to ensure there are no
leaks.
• Open all seacocks and make sure the
hoses and fittings are not leaking.
• Verify all bilge pumps are operational by
manually activating the float switch at
each pump.
• Check the engines and generator for
damage and follow the manufacturer’s
instructions for recommissioning.
• Check the mounting bolts of engines to
make sure they are tight.
• Perform all routine maintenance.
• Check all hose clamps for tightness.
• Pump antifreeze from any systems win-
terized with antifreeze and flush several
times with fresh water. Make sure all an-
tifreeze is flushed from the water heater
(if installed) and it is filled with fresh
water before it is activated. Disinfect the
fresh water system. Refer to section 5,
Plumbing Systems, for instructions.
• Check and lubricate the steering system.
• Clean and wash the boat.
• Install all upholstery, cushions, and
canvas.
After launching:
• Check all water systems and the engine
mounting bolts for leaks. Operate each
system one at a time and check for
leaks and proper operation.
•
Make sure all BILGE pump switches are
ON.
• When the engines start, check the
cooling system port below the engine
cowling for a strong stream of water to
ensure cooling pump is operating.
• Carefully monitor the gauges and check
for leakage and abnormal noises.
• Operate the boat at slow speeds until
the engine temperature stabilizes and all
systems are operating normally.
