Enclosed Head
An option on some models is the enclosed, portable head. This
convenience should be emptied on-shore within an acceptable
holding tank, septic system or sewer. It should never be emptied
within the boating body of water or on-shore, except in an ap-
proved receptacle!
The head should be cleaned after each outing. After thoroughly
cleaning with a mild detergent, add a neutralizing chemical made
especially for portable heads, such as that found in RV centers. The
neutralizing chemical will help deal with potential odors that might
otherwise be foul.
Slick Boot
The optional Slick Boot should periodically be dismantled, cleaned and
the wand thoroughly rinsed. The Slick Boot material can sometimes become
gelled, particularly in colder weather.
Upholstery
While the vinyl is made to withstand the elements, it is important to care for
vinyl by keeping it clean at all times. Many substances may stain the vinyl if
left untreated over a period of time. Remember to remove any contaminant
and clean vinyl immediately.
Regular washing with mild detergent (see attached information) and warm
water or vinyl cleaners is sufficient to keep the cushion and vinyl coverings in
good condition. Do not soak the cushion, and dry thoroughly after washing to
prevent mildew accumulations when the boat is covered. Spray the cushions
with a mildew repellent and prop them up in the boat when it is covered to
take advantage of air circulation.
MasterCraft vinyl is made to withstand the effects of sun, heat, acid rain and
soiling, under normal conditions, but this does not preclude the cleaning re-
quirements. Please consult the following cleaning recommendations before
cleaning your upholstery.
Certain household cleaners, powdered abrasives, steel wool, and industrial clean-
ers may cause damage and discoloration, and are not recommended for use. Dry
cleaning fluids and lacquer solvents should not be used as they will remove the
printed pattern and gloss. Waxes are not recommended, as many contain dyes and
solvents that can permanently damage the vinyl’s protective coating.
In some instances, consumers have reported the appearance of a pink stain
on vinyl that is resistant to various cleaning methods. Although there can be
other causes for pink staining in vinyls, most pink stains are caused by dyes
produced by micro-organisms. These dyes are metabolic products of the mi-
cro-organisms, otherwise known as a form of fungi.
