5.12.7. Docking
The storage cradle should be sufficiently steady and suitable for the boat’s dimensions. A sturdy
plank (2x4”), should be placed between the V trestles to support the keel and to bear most of the
weight of the boat. The side supports must not support the boat. The side supports should have
cut outs at the bottom steps to avoid load points on the steps. The supporting structures at the
transom should be strong enough to also support the weight of the engine.
Only use reputable lifting companies or boat yards with sufficient lifting capacity. In addition to the
boat’s own weight (please refer to technical specification), also take into consideration the acces-
sories and other possible loads on the boat.
When the boat is lifted, lines should be placed under the boat and, during lifting, the boat must
remain horizontal.
NOTE!
The boat cannot be lifted by the anchor bollards/strong points.
WARNING!
Never stand under a boat that is suspended from a crane.
6. Servicing and maintenance
Maintain your boat and its components clean. It will make your boat more comfortable to use and
increases the real sale value of the boat.
Familiarize yourself with the service procedures shown in the engine manual (see attachment). Car-
ry out the service carefully, or ensure it is performed by an accredited service company.
6.1. Washing and cleaning the boat
Normally it is sufficient just to wash and wax the deck and sides. A special boat cleaning agent is
most suitable for the purpose. Mildly abrasive polishes can be used to remove chafing’s and em-
bedded dirt. Fiberglass surfaces can be washed with a pressure washer.
Useful tips: When the boat has been washed using tap water, a thin chalk-like layer of lime and
minerals will remain on the boat’s surface after it has dried. The problem can be eliminated by add-
ing a few drops of pine oil soap into a bucket of rinsing water, which will soften it.
Useful tips:
Water and lime stains on stainless steel rails and handles disappear when you apply
some Lemon Pled furniture spray. The rails start shining just as nice as they did when the boat left
the shipyard.
Useful tips: If the boat’s ropes smell bad after winter storage, immerse them for a couple of hours
into a bucket of water and add a bottle of apple vinegar and a splash of fabric conditioner for
clothes. Allow the lines to dry properly.
6.2. Care instructions for seat cushions
In order to ensure that the boat’s seat cushions remain in good condition you are advised to always
use the canopy or harbor cover when raining. Although they are made of water-resistant material,
their seams can let water in. It is advisable to protect the cushions by spraying them with Sunbrel-
la -spray. If the cushions remain damp for any length of time, they may grow moldy and become
