resulting from improper cradle or trailer

Preparing The Boat For Storage:
• Remove the bilge drain plug(s), if
installed.
• Thoroughly wash fiberglass exterior,
especially the antifouling portion of the
bottom. Remove as much marine growth
as possible. Lightly wax the exterior
fiberglass components.
• Remove all oxidation from the exterior
hardware and apply a light film of mois-
ture displacing lubricant.
• Remove propellers and grease the pro-
peller shafts using light waterproof
grease.
• Remove batteries and clean using clear,
clean water. Make sure batteries have
sufficient water and terminals are clean.
Keep the batteries charged and stored in
a cool, dry place and safe from freezing
throughout the storage period.
• Refer to the Electrical System for infor-
mation on the maintenance of the AC
and DC electrical systems.
• Coat all faucets and exposed electrical
components in the cabin and cockpit
with a protecting oil.
• Clean, drain and completely dry the fish-
boxes, sinks and livewells.
• Thoroughly clean the interior of the boat;
clean all upholstery.
• Remove cushions, open the refrigerator/
cooler door and as many locker doors as
possible. Leaving as many of these
areas open as possible will improve
fresh air ventilation during the storage
period.
• Place a mildew preventive system in the
cabin area before it is closed for storage.
• Clean the exterior upholstery with a good
vinyl cleaner and dry thoroughly. Spray
the weather covers and boat upholstery
with a spray disinfectant. Enclosed areas
such as the refrigerator, shower basin,
storage locker areas, etc. should also be
sprayed with a disinfectant.
12.2 Winterizing
Fresh Water System
The entire fresh water system must be com-
pletely drained. Disconnect all hoses, check
valves, etc. and blow all the water from the
system. Make sure the water heater and
fresh water tank are completely drained. Use
very low air pressure only when blowing
water from the system to prevent damage to
components. The check valve mechanism
built in the fresh water pump will not remove
the water from the pump. Remove the outlet
hose on the pump, turn it on and allow it to
pump out any remaining water, approxi-
mately a cupful.
An alternate method is to use commercially
available nontoxic, fresh water system anti-
freeze. After draining the potable water tank,
lines and water heater, pour the antifreeze
mixture into the fresh water tank, prime and
operate the pump until the mixture flows
from all fresh water faucets. Be sure to open
ALL faucets, including the fresh water spray
head in the cockpit and the water supply
valve for the head. Make sure antifreeze has
flowed through all of the fresh water drains.
Allow the antifreeze to fill the sink traps to
trap odors from the waste tank.
The shower/cabin drain sump system must
be winterized also. Clean debris from the
drain and sump and flush for several min-
utes with fresh clean water. After the system
is clean, pump the drain sump as dry as pos-
sible. Then pour a potable water antifreeze
mixture into the shower drain until antifreeze
has been pumped through the entire system
and out of the thru-hull.
