AFTER SAILING CHECK LIST
PAGE
15
When leaving your Hunter at
the dock for more than a short
time, it is a good idea to review
the following checklist to make
sure everything is in order. This will help protect the various
parts of your boat and add to
their attractiveness and usable
life.

Flake or furl mainsail and cover, or remove and bag.

Remove and stow all portable deck hardware such as snatch blocks, winch
handles, etc.

Secure the boom to the topping lift and set it firmly amidships with the main-
sheet purchase. (It is a good idea to rig a line from the steering wheel or tiller
to a convenient cleat to keep the rudder from swinging back and forth with the
motion of the water or employ the wheel brake if so equipped.

Attach the shackle ends of all halyards to convenient fittings and take up
slack. Find a location leading away from the mast to keep the halyard from
slapping the mast.

Coil and stow all lines in line lockers.

Cover the winches and steering pedestal when leaving the boat for several
days or more.

Close all fuel lines and seacocks.

Switch off the electrical system.

Pump out the bilge.

Check air vents, secure ports and hatches, swab the deck, and clean deck
stainless, particularly if you have operated in saltwater.

Make a final check of mooring lines, chafing gear, fenders, etc.
