SEAT COVERINGS AND VINYL
Because seat coverings and trim are made of expandable vinyl,
extreme temperatures have little effect on them.
Note: Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations (found in
your owner’s packet) for cleaning and seat covering and
removing stains. These recommendations include the proper
cleaning methods and cleaning agents.
Care
Place removable exterior cushions inside the boat when they are
not in use.
Cleaning
Remove stains as soon as possible to eliminate any possible reac-
tion between the staining agent and the vinyl. Wipe away dirt and
smudges with mild soap and warm water. If additional cleaning is
required, scrub with a soft bristle brush to remove dirt from textured
patterns. Dry with a soft, lint-free cloth or towel.
Follow manufacturer’s instructions closely. NEVER use steel wool,
powdered abrasive cleaners, or bleaches. They will mar the surface
and leave an unsightly appearance. Never use bleaches or solvents
of any kind on monogram parts. Use mild soap and water. Bleaches
and solvents will cause monograms to fade.
To store cushions onboard boat for winter or extended periods of
time, open zippers and elevate cover away from foam padding.
Place a small rounded object (for example, a plastic bowl) inside to
allow for air circulation.
CANVAS (WEATHER COVERINGS)
The canvas, or weather coverings, are 100% acrylic yarn. Besides
its resistance to mildew, rot and weather, canvas also resists indus-
trial pollutants and the effects of ultraviolet light from the sun.
Care
• Keep the top up when boat is not in use or when it’s raining.
Never trailer your boat with the canvas up. None of the canvas or
covers supplied with your boat were designed for the stress of
highway speed trailering, and to do so may damage the canvas.
• Keep canvas clean. Acrylic fabric will not support mildew
growth, but dirt and dust on the canvas will.
• Lubricate zippers with paraffin and snaps with petroleum jelly.
• If canvas or seams leak, apply a light coating of a fluorocarbon
based water repellent, or “303 High Tech Fabric Guard,” avail-
able at most marine dealers.
• Allow all canvas to air dry before storing. Never store canvas
damp or wet. Provide proper ventilation to limit the possibility of
mildew.
• Avoid mooring under trees.
• Do not tow your boat with canvas attached to any hull or wind-
shield mounted fasteners.
•
Cleaning
• Wet down all canvas material. Scrub with a soft bristle brush
and a solution of mild soap and water. Never use a detergent or
bleach on your canvas.
• Brush or sweep the underside of the top. Spray with Lysol or
other disinfectant to prevent mildew.
•Important: Do not use scrub brushes, buffing wheels, harsh
chemicals, rubbing or polishing compounds or steel wool
on the logo. All of these items can damage the finish of the
logo.
