Yamarin 80 Day Cruiser

WARNING!
Always keep the drainpipe shut when its inboard end is constantly
below the waterline due to the load. The shut-off flap on the
transom only prevents water from entering the boat when
reversing!
NOTE!
Make sure that water can flow unobstructed through the drainpipe.
For instance, autumn leaves may obstruct the water flow, which
can cause the boat to fill with water and sink. The bilge pump
system does not work in conditions below 0°C.
NOTE!
There is always some amount of condensed water in the bilge. As
the boat ages, there is a risk that a small amount of water may
come through the hull bushings. Always remember to check the
bilge, via the inspection hatch under the aft seat, before you leave
the boat at quay or buoy and always before setting off.
Have an authorised repair shop check for possible leaks.
WARNING!
The boat's handling properties may become extremely dangerous,
if there is water in the bilge.
WARNING!
The boat's hull windows should be closed when underway. Close
the hull windows also when you leave boat at quay or buoy. In
rough weather, the hatches, drawers and doors should be kept shut
to minimise the risk of them filling with water.
5.6.2
Stability and buoyancy
Please note, that stability is reduced by any weight added high up. Any change in the
distribution of the weight onboard may significantly affect the stability, trim and performance
of your craft. However, please remember that large breaking waves always present a serious
danger to stability. The boat does not float if filled with water. In accordance with the
Recreational Craft Directive boats with a length of 6 metres or more do not need to float if
filled with water.
5.7
Avoiding the risk of fire or danger of explosion
5.7.1
Refuelling
Shut off the engine and extinguish any cigarettes before starting to refuel. During refuelling,
do not use switches or appliances that can cause a spark.
If the nozzle shuts off while you are refuelling, you should rotate the nozzle by 90 degrees to
prevent the jet from landing directly on the chain mounting screw.
When filling the fuel tank, do not use a plastic funnel, as this prevents discharge of the static
electricity between the fuel nozzle and the filling fitting.
Useful tips: As your boat has a synthetic teak deck and you are concerned about fuel spillage
when refuelling, we recommend that you wet the teak surface with water before refuelling.
