THE ANCHOR MUST BE POSITIONED SO IT DOES
NOT REST DIRECTLY AGAINST THE SIDES OF THE
LOCKER AND BE PROPERLY SECURED AT ALL
TIMES WHEN IT IS STORED IN THE ANCHOR
LOCKER. A LOOSE ANCHOR IN THE ANCHOR
LOCKER WILL BOUNCE AND CAN DAMAGE THE
BOAT. DAMAGE RESULTING FROM THE ANCHOR
BOUNCING IN THE ANCHOR LOCKER IS NOT
COVERED BY THE SCOUT WARRANTY.
Periodically remove the anchor line from the rope locker, rinse
it with freshwater and allow it to dry in the sun. Cleaning the
anchor line regularly will reduce odors in the anchor locker
and increase the life of the line. The line should also be in-
spected for abrasions or signs of deterioration. Replace the
line if it shows any sign of damage or deterioration. Make
sure the bitter end of the anchor line is secured to the special
fitting in the locker when you reinstall it.
Windshield
The Abaco and Dorado is equipped with a vented heavy duty
aluminum windshield with tinted glass. The side wing pan-
els and front panels are tempered safety glass.
The center windshield section on the Dorado opens to pro-
vide access to the bow seating area. The section is opened by
releasing the locks on the inside of the windshield. Make
sure the center section is closed and latched with both locks
before cruising.
The Sportfish is equipped with a tinted acrylic windshield
mounted to the front of the center console. Acrylic glass
scratches easily. Never use a dry cloth or glass cleaning solu-
tions on acrylic. Use a soft cloth and mild soap and water for
routine cleaning. Solvents and products containing ammonia
can permanently damage acrylic. Please refer to the Routine
Maintenance chapter for more information on the proper care
and maintenance of acrylic plastic glass.
TO AVOID INJURY, THE CENTER WINDSHIELD
SECTION MUST BE SECURED IN THE CLOSED
POSITION WHEN VESSEL IS IN MOTION. USE BOTH
LOCKS.
9.2 Hull
Engine Mounting System and Swim Platform
Your Scout is equipped with an engine mounting system that
is integrated into the hull and stringer system and designed to
equally distribute the stresses of engine weight and thrust
throughout the entire hull.
The design of the engine mounting system requires the stern
seat be in the folded or in the down position before tilting the
engine to the full up or trailering position. If the stern seat is
in the up position when the engine is tilted, the cowling will
hit the seat causing damage to the engine cowling and to the
stern seat. Always make sure the stern seat is down before
tilting the engine and returned to the up position before oper-
ating the boat.
A transom platform is standard on the Abaco and Dorado and
optional on the Sportfish.
Boarding Ladder (Optional on Sportfish)
A telescopic boarding ladder is recessed into the transom plat-
form. The ladder is standard on the Abaco and Dorado and
optional on the Sportfish.
To use the ladder, rotate it out of the recess to the down posi-
tion. Then pull the ladder out to the open position. The lad-
der must be retracted and folded into the recess before start-
ing the engines.
