for recommended periodic cleaning procedures. Typically, the bottom will need to
be repainted once a year and then cleaned a few times during the year. Contact
your local Tiara Yachts dealer for recommended local cleaning procedures and
services. Failure to keep the bottom clean will result in loss of boat performance
and fuel economy.
7.4.5 Underwater Gear
The underwater gear (shafts, struts, propellers, rudders etc.) do not come painted
with the antifouling paint, if that option is purchased. Consequently, regular scrub-
bing is required, depending on where your boat is stored, in order to keep them
clean. Fouled underwater gear can greatly effect your boat’s performance, espe
-
cially growth on the propeller. Please see section 6.1.1 Bottom Paint, in Chapter
6, for more information.
Sacrificial anodes have been installed on the propeller shafts, trim tabs, and on
the transom of your boat, to prevent electrolysis of underwater hardware. The
zincs should be replaced when they become depleted by 50% or more. Regular
inspection is recommended to monitor their condition. See your Tiara dealer or
local qualified marine service facility for replacement.
NOTE:
Bottom paint must not be applied to the sacrifical anodes.
Zeus pod installations have recommendations from the manufacturer for bottom
paint. Please refer to pages 8A-6 and 8A-7 of the Cummins Applications Manual
for Zeus.
Annually, the strut cutlass bearings should be checked for wear. If the bearings
are worn, they will cause excessive shaft vibration while running, and therefore
should be replaced. To replace, see your Tiara dealer or other qualified marine
service facility.
7.4.6 Washdowns
It is important to keep the “o” ring on the insert end of the washdown hoses lubri-
cated. To lubricate the washdown quick disconnects apply a liquid mild soap such
as a liquid boat wash to the insert on the hose end. For a long term lubrication
solution apply petroleum jelly such as Vasoline®. Depending on the location and
usage, a monthly application may be necessary. Apply a light coat to the hose
connection and insert it into the washdown port.
