Vinyl
• Clean clear vinyl thoroughly with denatured alcohol and apply a protective layer of clear
wax. Do not use paste wax, as it will turn the vinyl yellow. This process should be repeated
as necessary to maintain the protective wax coating.
• Store and secure canvas before trailering.
• Dry all canvas before storing to prevent mildew.
• Remove the top, front, and side panels. Roll them for storage. This is necessary to prevent
the front and side vinyl pieces from cracking. Never fold these pieces!
Storage
Consider the following steps when putting your bimini/vista top canvas option in the stored
position:
• Fold the top and zip it into the canvas cover provided.
• Pivot the covered top into the stowed position on the foredeck. The canvas cover is
equipped with a strap on each side and an eyelet in each strap. Place the eyelets over the
male fasteners located on the port and starboard foredeck.
• Twist the male fastener 90 degrees to engage.

PHOLSTERY
Your exterior vinyl upholstery may be cleaned with a mild solution of household detergent
and fresh water. Commercial cleaners for vinyl also work well. Since the seams of your exterior
upholstery are not waterproof, your upholstery should be stored in the cabin or covered when not
in use. Exterior cushions will trap moisture between themselves and the gel coat. If a cushion is
not removed to allow the moisture to dry, blistering of the gel coat may occur. Cockpit bolsters
may be removed if you desire. These bolsters clip onto brackets mounted to the deck structure.
Screws are then installed through the underside of the bolster to hold them in place. Most cabin
cushions are removable and may be dry-cleaned or steam cleaned.

INYL
In the cockpit area of your boat, plexiglass and vinyl are used for trim and polyethylene is
used for the toe rails and rod racks. Routine maintenance for vinyl should include regular cleaning
with soapy water and the application of a surface protector at least twice per year. Polyethylene
can be cleaned with products such as 409® or any spray and wipe cleaner. Plexiglass can be
maintained with mild soap and water and a soft cloth.
C A U T I O N
Secure the folded top when in the stowed position to prevent damage or the loss of your canvas.
