17. HOISTING, TRANSPORT, STORAGE ASHORE
(Plans on page N°98 and 99)
During haulout, ensure that the slings are correctly positioned and they are not bearing on the
propellers, or any delicate parts, such as transducers, etc.
The slings must be positioned in line with the mast bulkhead and the coachroof bulkhead, as indicated
by grey triangles above the antifouling.
Under no circumstances must the slings put any weight on the guardwires.
When placing the boat ashore, the hull must rest uniformly on the points marked by the grey triangles
above the antifouling.
Travel hoists must be sufficiently wide or be equipped with spreader bars so as not to apply too much
transverse force at the gunwales.
The pads of a cradle or props must be positioned level with structural elements, and only exert the
pressure necessary to provide the correct balance to the boat. Their curve must perfectly fit that of the
hull in a way that each should apply pressure over an area no smaller than 400 mm wide by 200 mm long
(100 mm either side of the structural area).
Take advantage of the boat being out of the water to inspect the propellers, anodes, rudders, through
hull skin fittings and transducers.
DANGER
Never use the electric winches for hoisting a person up the rig: a breakdown in the system could lead
to irreparable damage.
18. Anchoring, mooring and towing
The mooring cleats are designed for a maximum load of 8,500 kg.
If towing or being towed, always do so at a slow speed.
A tow line must always be tied in a way that it can always be released under load .
CAUTION
- Any anchorage points which show any visible signs of deterioration must be replaced.
- It is the responsibility of the owner / user to ensure that mooring warps, towlines, chain and anchor
rode, as well as anchors are adequate for the envisaged use of the boat, which is to say that lines
or chains should not exceed 80% of the breaking strain of the corresponding anchorage point.
- The owner should also take into consideration the actions which would need to be taken to rig a
towline on board.
- The yard recommends using an anchor rode comprising 70 metres of 12mm chain and a 40Kg Delta
anchor (breaking strain 7,100 kg).
