cabin and locker doors, and hang a commercially
available mildew protector in the cabin.
Notice:
Always read the label carefully on mildew
protectors. Remove the protector and allow
the cabin to ventilate completely before us-
ing the cabin.
Interior Woodwork
Oiled and varnished woodwork can be cleaned
with a damp cloth. For heavy duty cleaning, use
a mixture of water and Murphy’s Oil Soap or a
solution of 10% white vinegar and water to clean
the wood and wipe it dry with a clean towel. Ap-
ply a furniture polish to add luster and help to
preserve the finish.
13.4 Bilge
To keep the bilge clean and fresh, it is recom-
mended that you use a commercial bilge cleaner
on a regular basis. Follow the directions carefully.
All exposed pumps and metal components in the
bilge should be sprayed periodically with a pro-
tector to reduce the corrosive effects of the high
humidity always present in these areas.
Periodically check the bilge pumps for proper
operation and clean debris from the strainers.
Inspect all hoses, clamps and thru-hulls for leaks
and tightness on a regular basis and operate all
thru hull valves at least once a month to keep
them operating properly.
Frequently test the automatic switches for the
bilge pumps for proper operation. This is accom-
plished by pressing the “Pump Check” switch until
the pump is activated. You can also use a garden
hose to flood the bilge until the water level is high
enough to activate the pump.
13.5 Drainage System
It is essential that the following items be done
periodically to maintain proper drainage of your
boat:
• Clean the cockpit drains with a hose to remove
debris that can block water drainage.
• Clean the hardtop or T-top leg drain holes.
This is especially important just before winter
lay-up.
• Flush all gravity drains with freshwater to keep
them clean and free flowing.
• Operate the thru-hull valves once a month and
service as required.
Notice:
All drains and pumps must be properly win-
terized before winter lay-up.
