Yamarin Cross 53 Bow Rider
33 (40)
The colours used on this boat are specified in the
Technical specifications
. One point to
consider is that a paint called gelcoat has been used in manufacturing the boat, but the
surface is always repaired with a paint called topcoat. Gelcoat paint does not harden without
a mould surface, whereas paraffin has been added to topcoat to allow it to harden.
NOTE!
Post-delivery installations may cause damage to the structure of
the boat or impair safety if not performed correctly. Please
contact the dealer if you are planning any modifications.
NOTE!
It is important to use aluminum or stainless steel screws and
rivets when installing accessories. There are ready-made fittings
for a depth finder sensor (Garmin) on the boat's transom.
NOTE!
When installing accessories on an aluminum surface
(except in
their pre-ordained places)
always use aluminum rivets and
insulating washers to avoid corrosion.

Winter storage
Preparing your boat for winter storage is an annual routine. Have your boat lifted in good
time before the water freezes. Your boat is not designed for use in ice and it is not meant to
be used in temperatures below zero (for example, the rain water draining system will freeze
up). It is advisable to perform all maintenance, repair and inspection procedures in
connection with placing the boat in winter storage.
Familiarise yourself with the service procedures shown in the engine manual. We
recommend that you leave them to an authorised service agent. Do not forget to service the
remote control and steering system. Make sure to perform their maintenance according to
their separate instructions and manuals.
7.1
Measures before winter storage
Wash the bottom of the boat immediately after the boat has been lifted. Algae and slime will
come off easier if they are not left to dry.
Give the engine and other equipment – following their separate manuals, their winter
servicing. If your boat is stored outside or in a humid place over the winter, empty it of
textiles and other equipment that may corrode or become mouldy in damp conditions. Wash
the ropes in fresh water. Replace any worn ropes. Leave bushing valves open. Remove the
drain plug for the winter.
Always cover your boat so that water or snow cannot gather inside. Always make sure,
however, that it is adequately ventilated. A winter storage cover is available as an optional
extra for your boat.
