6.1
Washing and waxing the boat
Normally it is sufficient just to wash and wax the deck and sides. A special boat cleaning
agent is best for washing. Do not use strong solvents as they may damage the gloss of the
reinforced plastic surfaces. Mildly abrasive polishes can be used to remove chafings and
embedded dirt. Fibreglass surfaces can be washed with a pressure washer.
Useful tip: when the boat has been washed using tap water, a thin chalk-like layer of lime and
minerals will appear on its surface after it has dried. This results from the hardness of the
water and can be eliminated by adding a few drops of tall oil soap solution into a bucket of
rinsing water, which will soften it.
Useful tip: Water and lime stains on acid resistant rails disappear when you apply some
Lemon Pled furniture spray on them. The rails start shining like on the shipyard's production
line.
Useful tip: If the boat's ropes smell bad after winter storage, immerse them into a bucket of
water and add a bottle of apple vinegar with some fabric softener. Drip dry over the night and
they are like new.

Care instructions for seat cushions
In order that the boat's seat cushions remain in good condition they must be stored in a dry
and well-ventilated space. Although they are made of water resistant material, their seams let
water in. If the cushions remain damp for a lengthy time, they will grow mouldy and
deteriorate. So always take the cushions inside for the night, if you want them to stay dry and
in good condition. Front seats will remain dry if you remember to use protective bags on
them. The warranty does not cover cushions spoilt by rain or dampness.
The press studs of the seat cushions should be sprayed with silicon spray every now and then.
Otherwise they may become so tight that the fabric is torn in the attempt to open them. The
warranty does not cover seat cushions that have been damaged.
Useful tip: Any mould spots on boat seats with imitation leather finish disappear when you
wipe them clean with a lemon juice concentrate seasoned with a pinch of table salt. This
gives the seats a fresh scent.
6.3
Care instruction for canopy
Store the canopy over the winter in a dry and well-ventilated place. The press studs of the
canopy should be sprayed with silicon spray every now and then. Otherwise they may become
so tight that the fabric is torn in the attempt to open them. The warranty does not cover a
canopy that has been damaged.
