WARNING! The boat’s handling properties may become extremely dangerous
if there is water in the bilge.
5.6.2 Stability and buoyancy
Please note that stability will be reduced by any weight added high up on the boat. Any
change in the distribution of weight on board may significantly affect the stability, trim and
performance of your boat. Please remember that large breaking waves always present a
serious danger to stability.
Preventing fires and explosion hazards
5.7.1 Refuelling
Shut off the engine and extinguish any cigarettes before starting to refuel. During refuelling,
do not use switches or appliances that can cause a spark.
When refuelling at a service station, do not use a plastic funnel, since it will prevent the
tension between the refuelling nozzle and filling vent from being discharged.
Hint: If you are afraid of getting fuel on the synthetic teak deck during refuelling, wet the
deck with water. You can also hold a rag in front of the fuel filler to prevent fuel from
splashing on the deck.
Always keep a spare can of fuel on board. The anchor boxes at the stern are especially
suitable for storing the spare canister as there is no risk of vaporised fuel coming into
contact with battery compartments or the electrical system from either of these boxes.
Do not stow any loose items under the aft sofa that could prevent fuel flow to the engine if
they shift. Check the fuel hoses annually for wear, especially at through fittings.
Please note that, depending on the trim of the boat or the boat's heeling angle, it might not
be possible to use the full capacity of the fuel tank.
If the boat is on trailer behind a car when refuelling, please note that the fuel tank
ventilation does not work efficiently if the bow of the boat is downwards.
WARNING! Vaporised fuel is highly explosive. Observe these instructions and the utmost
caution during refuelling. The smell of fuel always means that there is
vaporised fuel on your boat.
