5.1 Foil Care

5.2 Spar Care

RS Sailing foils are manufactured from anodised Aluminium extrusions with injection

moulded glass reinforced Nylon ends. Lower mouldings are bonded in with polyurethane

adhesive sealant. Upper mouldings are riveted or screwed in. The upper

daggerboard

moulding shows the type of boat.

Lower mouldings are sealed, however over time there may be some water ingress. If

this occurs foils should be inverted to allow water removal through the drain holes in

the top of the moulding.

Foils contain closed cell foam to ensure buoyancy and limit potential water ingress.

Maintenance

• Foils should be rinsed with fresh water after use.

• Anodising will prevent surface corrosion, however if surface damage does occur the

aluminium should be polished with wax polish e.g. car polish.

• Nylon mouldings are maintenance free but can be replaced if damaged.

• If you run aground hard with the

daggerboard

down, you should check that the hull has

not been punctured at the front or the trailing edge of the

daggerboard

case. Special ‘shock

absorbing’ pads have been fitted at these points to reduce the risk of damage, and these can

be replaced if damaged.

If you are going to trail your boat frequently, you may wish to invest in some RS Racing

padded rudder bags. These will protect your RS Feva from any damage caused by the foils.

The

mast

and

boom

are aluminium. Wash with fresh water as often as possible, both inside

and out. Check all of the riveted fittings on a regular basis for any signs of corrosion or wear.

5.3 Sail Care

The

mainsail

and

Jib

should be rolled and stored dry, out of direct sunlight. When using a

new sail for the first time, try to avoid extreme conditions as high loads on new sailcloth can

diminish the racing life of the sail.

If your sail is stained in any way, try to remove it using a light detergent and warm water. DO

NOT attempt to launder the sail yourself.

A sail can be temporarily repaired using a self-adhesive cloth tape, such as Dacron or Mylar.

The sail should be returned to a sail maker for a professional repair. Check for wear and

tear, especially around the batten pockets, on a regular basis.
