• If you fall overboard, hold on to the mainsheet or other lines. Try to
avoid holding on to the tiller, especially if the boat is moving at a high
speed, as this may break the tiller or rudder or both.
• Make sure that the boat and all the systems are in working order and
do not show signs of excessive wear and tear. Periodically check all
hardware and running rigging and replace parts if necessary.
• Periodically open the inspection port and check for large amounts of
water that might indicate a leak. It is normal for a small amount of
water to accumulate inside the hull - just be sure you drain the boat
completely through the transom drain plug every time you go sailing.
If a serious hull leak develops, immediately stop using the boat and
contact your local dealer or International MX Composites.
• Check that the inspection port and drain plug are always closed tight
before leaving the shore.
• The hull is constructed with closed cell foam that provides 1,000lbs
(453kg) of buoyancy so there is no danger of your boat sinking.
• The mxNext hull, mast and boom are made of carbon fiber, which is
an excellent conductor of electricity. Rigging or sailing your boat near
electrical lines or during a storm with lightening could be extremely
dangerous.
