Supporting The Boat For Storage
A trailer, elevating lift or a well-made cradle is the best support for your boat during storage.
When storing the boat on a trailer for a long period:
•
Make sure the rollers and pads support the hull of the boat.
• Make sure the trailer is on a level surface and the bow is high enough so that water will drain
from the bilge, cockpit and exhaust system.
• The trailer must properly support the hull. The bunks and rollers should match the bottom
of the hull and should not be putting pressure on the lifting strakes.
• Make sure the hitch is properly supported.
• Check the tires at least once each season. Add enough air for the correct amount of inflation
for the tires.
Note: Read the owner’s manual for the trailer for the correct amount of inflation for the
tires.
When storing the boat on a lift or cradle:
•
The cradle must be specifically for boat storage.
• Make sure the lift or cradle is well supported with the bow high enough to provide proper
drainage of the bilge.
• The cradle or lift must be in the proper fore and aft position to properly support the hull. When
the cradle or lift is in the correct location, the bunks should match the bottom of hull and
should not be putting pressure on the lifting strakes.
BOATS HAVE BEEN DAMAGED BY TRAILERS, LIFTS AND CRADLES THAT
DON’T PROPERLY SUPPORT THE HULL. ALWAYS MAKE SURE THE BUNKS
AND ROLLERS ARE ADJUSTED SO THEY ARE NOT PUTTING PRESSURE ON THE
LIFTING STRAKES AND ARE PROVIDING ENOUGH SUPPORT FOR THE HULL.
HULL DAMAGE RESULTING FROM IMPROPER CRADLE OR TRAILER SUPPORT
IS NOT COVERED BY THE PURSUIT WARRANTY.
Preparing The Boat For Storage
• Remove the bilge drain plug(s), if installed.
• Thoroughly wash the fiberglass exterior, especially the antifouling portion of the bottom.
Remove as much marine growth as possible. Lightly wax the exterior fiberglass components.
