Refer to dimension “J” in Table I to set height on the
jaw slide. On the 278 model, the dimension varies
and is dependent upon installation. The bows must
be fully extended before tightening the set screw.
NOTICE
Later models will use two jaw slides with lan-
yards. One will be located for set up of the
camper and the other for storage.

beginning at forward edge. Readjust bows if neces-
sary.

in Figure L1. Be sure canvas is centered on stern.
Canvas should be snug. If taut or extremely tight, canvas
could tear or pull at seams.

B. Cockpit Cover
The cockpit cover is used to cover the complete cockpit
area and is intended as a short term storage cover. This
is available as an option on all Vistas. Refer to L-3 Win-
ter Storage for additional information.
To install:
1. Snap the forward edge of the cockpit cover to snaps
located forward of the windshield.
2. Snap canvas along sides and proceed to rear of boat.
3. Attach shock cords to knobs and center canvas at
the stern.
L - 2 TRAILERING
High winds encountered during trailering your boat can
severely damage most weather covers. If an extended
trip at highway speeds is planned, the top and other
weather covers should be in the down position or removed
entirely. This will prevent damage and loss.
L - 3 WINTER STORAGE
The boat must be properly protected during winter dry
dock storage. A winter storage cover is advisable. Many
marine dealers offer shrinkwrap enclosures for outdoor
storage. See a Four Winns dealer for information on the
availability of winter storage covers or other alternatives
for storage.
