DANGER
Use only flat, wide belt-type slings and
spreaders to lift the boat.
Lifting with bow and stern eyes will cause
stress on the fiberglass & gel coat and may
cause injury or death.
• Ensure that fishboxes and bilge are pumped out
prior to lifting.
• Use a wide, flat, belt sling for lifting to
minimize stress on the gunwales.
• Careful location of the sling is required.
DO NOT place slings where contact with
underwater fittings will occur.
• When secured on land, pull the garboard drain,
ensure that motorwell drains and deck drains are
free flowing and position the boat with the bow
slightly higher than the stern so that any water
which is allowed to accumulate in the cockpit,
motorwell or bilge can easily drain from the boat.
Safety Chain/Cable - There is a safety chain/cable
that attaches to the bow eye and will keep the boat
from sliding off the trailer in the event that the winch
strap or cable breaks. Hook this up first.
Trailer Safety
Use a trailer with bunks ONLY. Your warranty
may be voided if you use a trailer with rollers.
NOTICE
If you have a trailer or plan on purchasing a trailer
separately there are some points you need to consider,
such as:
• Having a center roller and keel guards will help
provide good support for the keel, also provide
good fore and aft support.
•
Trailers equipped with rollers instead of
bunks can damage the foam sandwich hull of
your boat and should never be used .
• Bunks provide a more even weight
distribution.
Tie-Down Straps - Can be used to secure the boat
from the stern. The tie-down straps hook into the tie-
down loops on the trailer frame and to the stern eyes
on the transom. Padding (or similar) chafe protection
should be used wherever the tie-down straps come
in contact with the hull.
