EXTERIOR EQUIPMENT
11.1 Deck
Deck Hardware
The rail system and hardware fittings have been
selected and installed to perform specific func -
tions. Hand rails are installed to provide a hand-
hold in certain areas of the boat. You should make
sure you keep at least one hand on the handholds
as you move about the boat.
Fenders or mooring lines should be secured to
the cleats and not to rails or stanchions. The
cleats on your boat are retractable and flush with
the deck when not in use. To use the cleats, pull
up on the center of the cleat until it locks in the
mooring position. Be sure a clear lead exists
when running dock lines or anchor lines. A line
inadvertently run around a stanchion or over the
rail could cause damage.
An optional stainless steel bow cleat that is also
a lifting ring is available. It is flush with the deck
when it is not in use. To use the cleat, pull up on
the center of the cleat until it locks in the mooring
position. A stainless steel threaded rod connects
the lifting ring/cleat to the bow eye, transferring
the lifting load to the hull. If your boat is equipped
with this option, the bow lift ring/cleat and rod
hardware should be checked at least once a year
to make sure it is sound and tight.
Important:
All fittings must be periodically inspected for
loose fit or wear and damage. Any problems
should be corrected immediately.
WARNING
EVERGLADES BOATS ARE NOT EQUIPPED WITH HARDWARE
DESIGNED FOR TOWING PURPOSES. THE MOORING CLEATS
ARE NOT TO BE USED FOR TOWING ANOTHER VESSEL OR
HAVING THIS BOAT TOWED.
Anchor/Rope Locker
The anchor/rope locker is in the bow of the boat
and accessed through a hatch in the deck. A
flush, “push to close” latch secures the hatch in

the closed position. Always make sure the hatch
is closed and latched before operating the boat
above idle speed.
The anchor line is always stored in the locker. The
locker has a molded cradle designed to secure a
fluke style anchor. The anchor must fit the cradle
and be properly secured to prevent it from bounc-
ing in the locker, causing damage to the hull or
anchor locker.
The locker is designed for one fluke style anchor
that is properly secured in the cradle. Do not
store additional anchors or any heavy object in the
anchor locker. Heavy objects like weights for float -
ing markers will bounce and damage the hull or
rope locker if they are stored in the anchor locker.
Always store and secure additional anchors and
