TROPHY Owner’s Manual Supplement
1901 Bay - 2101 Bay - 2401 Bay
Electrical System:
The battery should be removed from the boat. Re-
move the negative (-) cable fi rst, then the positive (+)
cable and the battery given a full charge. Clean the
external surface of the battery and check all water
levels before and after charging. Grease both termi-
nals and bolts on the cable ends.
Drainage:
It is important to raise the bow of the boat enough
to allow for proper drainage of water from the deck
and bilge area. Make sure all the drainage fi ttings are
clear and free of debris. Store the engine in an upright
position to promote adequate drainage of water.
Store the batteries in a cool, dry location. Keep
the batteries in their plastic boxes. Periodically
check the batteries during storage.
NOTICE
Chafing, fiber wear from dirt and grit and deterioration
from ultraviolet light can cause your canvas sun top and
covers to degrade over time.
Canvas Care & Maintenance
NEVER trailer the boat with the Bimini top in
the open position. Damage to the frame, canvas
and securing straps can occur. Store the top
in the protective boot when the boat is being
trailered or stored.
NOTICE
The effects of ultraviolet light can sometimes be reduced
by chemical treatment of canvas items.
Consult your dealer or check with your owner’s manual
before using any chemical treatments on your canvas.
To keep the canvas and metal parts in good working
condition and keep a good appearance, you will need to
keep them clean.
The fabric should be cleaned regularly before substances
such as dirt, pollen, etc. are allowed to accumulate on
and become embedded in the fabric. The fabric can be
cleaned without removing the framework.
Simply brush off any loose dirt, pollen, etc. Hose down
and clean with a mild solution of a natural soap in
lukewarm water (no more than 100 ° F. 38° C.). Rinse
thoroughly to remove soap.
Allow the canvas to completely air-dry. After each use
especially in salt water areas, rinse the canvas completely
with fresh cold water. Let the canvas dry completely
before stowing. All metal components of the canvas
frame should be rinsed with fresh cold water and exposed
components wiped dry to maintain appearance and
working order.
Lubricate the snaps of the canvas with petroleum jelly,
use a paraffin wax on the zippers to keep them in proper
working order. If you have stubborn cleaning cases call
your Trophy dealer for proper cleaning procedures.
Do not use bleach or solvents to clean the canvas
material.
