CHAPTER 1: WELCOME ABOARD! 3
Qualified Maintenance
Failure to maintain your boat’s systems (listed in the warning above) as designed could violate the laws in your juris-
diction and could expose you and other people to the danger of bodily injury or accidental death. Follow the instruc-
tions provided in the Cruiser & Yacht Owner’s Manual, this Owner’s Manual Supplement, the engine owner’s manual
and all accessory instruction sheets and manuals included in your owner’s packet.
Structural Limitations
The transom platform and bow platform are designed to be lightweight for proper boat balance. The load limit for
these platforms is 30 pounds per square foot, evenly distributed.
Special Care For Moored Boats
Whether moored in saltwater or freshwater, your boat will collect marine growth on its hull bottom. This will detract
from the boat’s beauty, greatly affect its performance and may damage the gelcoat. There are two methods of slowing
marine growth:
•
Periodically haul the boat out of the water and scrub the hull bottom with a bristle brush and a solution of soap
and water.
•
The hull below the waterline may have anti-fouling paint applied by the factory. Occasionally you will need to re-
paint it with a good grade of anti-fouling paint.
Sacrificial Anodes (Zincs)
Your boat is equipped with sacrificial anodes (zincs) to protect underwater metal parts from excessive deterioration.
Check the zincs regularly and replace them if they have deteriorated more than 70%.
There are many factors that affect the rate at which the zincs deteriorate, including:
•
Water temperature
•
Salinity
•
Water pollution
Stray electrical current from the boat or dock may cause complete deterioration in just a few weeks. If there is rapid
zinc deterioration, measure the electrolytic corrosion around your boat with a Corrosion Test Meter. If the zincs are
not bonded correctly, they will not provide protection.
To maintain the integrity and safety of your boat, allow only qualified personnel to perform
maintenance on, or in any way modify: The steering system, propulsion system, engine control
system, fuel system, environmental control system, electrical system or navigational system.

•
To help seal the hull bottom and reduce the possibility of gelcoat blistering on moored boats,
apply an epoxy barrier coating, such as INTERLUX, Interprotect 2000E/2001E. The barrier
coating should be covered with several coats of anti-fouling paint.
•
Many states regulate the chemical content of bottom paints in order to meet environmental
standards. Check with your local dealer about recommended bottom paints, and about the
laws in effect in your area.
Do not paint between the zinc and the metal surface it contacts and do not paint over the zincs.
