WARNING
!
M-4
Never trailer your boat with the convertible/bimini canvas (including side curtains, aft
curtain, windshield connector, bow cover and cockpit cover) up. Monterey Boats’ canvas is
not designed to withstand the high wind loads of trailering. Severe wind damage can occur
such as torn material, fastener pull-out and frame distortion. Damage caused by trailering
is not covered under the limited warranty.
l
The outer canvas surfaces can be cleaned with a soft scrub brush and either automotive convertible
top cleaners or household cleaners suitable for use on acrylic surfaces. The underside of the canvas
may be periodically sprayed with a spray disinfectant to prevent the growth of mildew.
l
Do not store or dock your boat under trees. Tree sap is very corrosive to canvas and can also be
harmful to gelcoat and vinyl interiors.
l
Adjust top bows to eliminate pockets in which rain water can accumulate. The weight of this
accumulated water can collapse the top or bag the canvas.
l
Zippers and snaps should never be forced. Occasionally lubricate with silicone/Teflon grease.
l
When trailering, dismantle, roll or fold and securely stow all canvas to prevent damage. Monterey
recommends purchasing a transportation cover to keep your boat clean on the road. Your Monterey
dealer will assist you in finding a suitable cover (not available from Monterey Boats).
l
Roll clear plastic (isinglass) curtains (do not fold) and store in a clean, dry place.
l
Do not allow petroleum products or bug sprays to come in contact with canvas.
NOTICE
Your Monterey boat is basically an open vehicle. Therefore, in spite of well-designed and
well-fitting canvas enclosures, your boat is not waterproof. We have made every effort to
design these enclosures to conform with the boat, but a certain amount of leakage may
occur, especially at the seam lines. After cleaning with soap and water, allow seams to
thoroughly dry. A sealant can be applied on the seams to somewhat close the needle holes
according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Acrylic and Plexiglas ®
Acrylics and Plexiglas have properties that make them ideal for the marine environment. Components
such as cabin doors and deck hatches need special care to prevent scratches and other damage. The
following guidelines will help keep acrylics and Plexiglas looking good for years to come.
DO’S
l
Wash your hatches, windshield connector, side curtains and other clear plastic pieces, as well as
other acrylic components on your boat with a mild soap and plenty of lukewarm water.
l Use a clean, soft cloth, applying only light pressure.
l
Rinse with clear water and dry by blotting with a damp cloth or chamois.
l
Grease, oil or tar may be removed with a good grade of hexane, aliphatic naphtha or kerosene.
These solvents may be obtained at a paint or hardware store and should be used in accordance with
the manufacturer’s recommendations.
l
To maintain a high-luster finish on your acrylics, we recommend that after properly cleaning, apply
Meguiar’s™ Mirror Glaze #10 with a soft towel. Note: If slight scratches appear on acrylics, use
Meguiar’s™ Mirror Glaze #17.
