Notes on Sailing a New Boat

When sailing on a new boat, particularly in rough

weather, never just sit in the cockpit. Force yourself
to walk around outside and inside to look for possible
sources of trouble. Thoroughly inspect the rigging by
looking for loose cotter-pins or shackles, problems

with the rivets in the mast, and any other hardware
issues. Inside the boat, periodically check under the
floorboards for leaks. If a small puddle of water is

discovered, it is possible to find the source by tracing
back the flow of water. If this leak is left until the

whole area below the floorboards is full, it is impossi-

ble to find the source, particularly in a pitching sea-
way.

Regarding the break-in period associated with the

engine and drive leg; Sillette-Sonic Marine suggests
running the engine up to about 1/2 the engine RPM

for the first 20 hours of operation. This equates to
1500 RPM on the Westerbeke diesel.
