DO NOT WAX NONSKID AREAS AS THIS COULD MAKE THEM SLIPPERY
AND CONSEQUENTLY INCREASE THE POSSIBILITY OF INJURY.
Stainless Steel Hardware
When using the boat in saltwater, the hardware should be washed with soap and water after
each use. When your boat is used in a corrosive environment such as saltwater, water with
a high sulfur content, or polluted water, the stainless steel will periodically develop surface
rust stains. This is perfectly normal under these conditions. The stainless can normally be
cleaned and protected by using a high quality boat or automotive wax or a
commercial metal cleaner and protectant.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD ANY ABRASIVE MATERIALS SUCH AS
SANDPAPER, BRONZE WOOL, OR STEEL WOOL BE USED ON STAINLESS
STEEL. DAMAGE TO THE HARDWARE WILL RESULT.
Anodized Aluminum Surfaces
Anodized aluminum should be washed periodically with soap and water to keep it clean. If
the boat is used in saltwater or polluted water, the aluminum should be washed with soap and
water after each use. Saltwater allowed to remain on anodized aluminum will penetrate the
anodized coating and attack the aluminum.
Hard tops with aluminum frames, Bimini tops and towers with canvas and/or fiberglass tops
require special attention to the anodized aluminum just below the top. This area is subject to
salt build up from salty condensation and sea spray. It is also frequently overlooked when the
boat is washed and will not be rinsed by the rain. Consequently, the aluminum just below the
top is more likely to become pitted than the exposed aluminum on the structure. Make sure
the aluminum in this area is washed frequently with soap and water and rinsed thoroughly. Pay
particular attention to places where the top material and lacing contact the frame. Once a
month coat the entire frame with a metal protector made for anodized aluminum to protect
against pitting and corrosion caused by the harsh effects of salt water. The anodized aluminum
used on your Pursuit was coated with a metal protector called Aluma Guard at the factory.
Aluma Guard is a nonabrasive marine metal protector that protects anodized aluminum,
stainless steel, brass, and chrome. It also protects color anodizing from fading and discoloring
due to harmful ultraviolet rays. It is available from Rupp Marine Inc., 4761
Anchor Avenue, P.O. Drawer F, Port Salerno, FL 34992.
ONE DRAWBACK TO ALUMA GUARD AND OTHER METAL PROTECTORS IS
THAT THEY CAN MAKE THE METAL SLIPPERY. THEREFORE, THEY
