2. OPERATING THE BOAT __PAGE 21
for both bow and stern. Only use the strong point cleats, not the stem eye or secure
eye. The ropes for the bow should be equipped with elastic shock absorbers and the
ropes for the stem should be about the length of the boat. The points of contact
between the rope and the clasps should be checked regularly for wear and tear.
Moor your boat carefully, even in sheltered places, because weather conditions can
change rapidly. Do not moor the boat with the stern facing the open sea, because high
waves could flood the boat and sink it. Use loose fenders between the boat hull and any
close objects such as other boats when there is a risk of contact.
If the boat is left unattended, turn off the electric power using the main power switch
(for location and function, refer chapter 5.4).
Never leave your boat unattended for long periods. Observe the floating position of the
boat so that the water line is at a normal level. Check for any water in the bilge. If large
volumes of water accumulate in the bilge or at the deck (for instance due to leakage,
broken bilge pump, lack of electric power, flooding or blocked deck drains), the boat
may be seriously damaged or sink as the deck drain system may not work as intended.
Examples of different types of mooring
Principal figure only
Anchoring:
When you anchor or land temporarily in a natural harbour, ensure sufficient water
depth. Drop the anchor at a sufficient distance from shore, allowing time for the anchor
to drop and grip and to release enough anchor rope/chain. The anchor rope/chain length
should be at least 4-5 times the water depth. Choosing the right type of anchor and
anchoring method requires boating experience, ask for advice when needed.
Storm anchor:
If you lose engine power at sea and waves are strong, keep the boat headed into the
waves by rigging a sea anchor off the bow (below principal figure). If there is no sea
anchor onboard, use a canvas bucket or any object that will offer resistance.
