Special Notes Prior To Winter Storage
If the boat will be in outside storage, properly support a storage cover and secure it over the boat. It is best
to have a frame built over the boat to support the canvas. It should be a few inches wider than the boat so
the canvas will clear the rails and allow passage of air. If this cover is fastened too tightly there will be
inadequate ventilation and this can lead to mildew, moisture accumulation, etc. It is essential to fasten the
canvas down securely so that the wind cannot remove it or cause chafing of the hull superstructure. Do not
store the boat in a damp storage enclosure. Excessive dampness can cause electrical problems, corrosion, and
excessive mildew.
Whenever possible, do not use the bimini top or convertible top canvas in place of the winter storage cover.
The life of these canvases may be significantly shortened if exposed to harsh weather elements for long periods.
PLACING AN ELECTRIC OR FUEL BURNING HEATING UNIT IN THE BILGE AREA CAN
BE POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS AND IS NOT RECOMMENDED.
Proper storage is very important to prevent serious damage to the boat. If the boat is to be stored indoors,
make sure the building has enough ventilation. It is very important that there is enough ventilation both inside
the boat and around the boat. If the boat is to be stored indoors or outdoors, open all drawers, clothes lockers,
cabinets, and doors a little. If possible, remove the upholstery, mattresses, clothing and rugs. Then hang a
commercially available mildew protector in the cabin.
14.3 Recommissioning
BEFORE LAUNCHING THE BOAT, MAKE SURE THE HULL DRAIN PLUG IS INSTALLED.
DO NOT OPERATE THE BOAT UNLESS IT IS COMPLETELY ASSEMBLED. KEEP ALL
FASTENERS TIGHT. KEEP ADJUSTMENTS ACCORDING TO SPECIFICATIONS.
MAKE SURE THE MUFFLERS HAVE NOT BEEN DAMAGED DURING WINTER STORAGE.
DAMAGED OR LEAKING MUFFLERS OR EXHAUST HOSES WILL ALLOW CARBON MON-
OXIDE, ENGINE GASES AND WATER INTO THE BILGE CREATING A POTENTIALLY
HAZARDOUS CONDITION.
Reactivating The Boat After Storage:
• Charge and install the batteries.
• Install the drain plug in the hull.
