ALUMINUM SAILDRIVES
Most of these areas are made of aluminum and it is important to ensure the surfaces are
properly prepared and primed in order that the paint adheres well and the metal is protected
from galvanic reactions. Aluminum Saildrives cannot be painted with copper base anti-­‐
fouling paints, so it is important that the antifouling for these areas be specified for use on
aluminum. Interlux makes Micron 33 Aerosol, Trilux, Tri-­‐Lux II and Micron 33 for use on
aluminum. Check with the specific Saildrive manufacturer
for recommended painting
procedures.
TARTAN YACHTS DOES NOT OFFER THIS DOCUMENT AS A WARRANTY FOR BOTTOM
PAINT APPLICATION OR THE PERFORMANCE OF BOTTOM PAINT APPLIED.
PLEASE CONTACT THE FACTORY IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS ABOUT THE
BOTTOM PAINTING PROCEDURES.
When applying seasonal applications of bottom paint, it is extremely important that the
coatings be the best quality and that they be applied carefully and strictly according to
manufacturer's instructions. Thereafter, the routine maintenance of the bottom will be
much easier with the best possible results.
The frequency and amount of maintenance required on the bottom is governed by the
nature of the water in which the yacht is kept, and to some extent, by the use it gets.
If the waters are polluted or are conducive to marine growth, the yacht may have to be
hauled frequently and the bottom scrubbed down with brushes, detergent and fresh water
immediately upon hauling. If for any other reason the yacht is hauled and it is planned to
keep it out of the water for any length of time, the bottom should be scrubbed down
immediately before any marine growth dries and hardens upon the bottom.
12.5 Cove Stripe
The cove (just below the deck line) is colored vinyl tape. The cove stripe may be cleaned by
using a mild detergent solution. The vinyl tape, if needing replacement, can be purchased
through your Tartan Dealer.
12.6 Standing Rigging
Standing rigging is defined as those fixed parts of the rigging, which support the mast.
The standing rigging and all the components listed under "Stainless Steel" should be
checked each time before going sailing and given a detailed monthly examination.
Turnbuckles should be inspected to make sure that cotter pins are in place at top and
bottom, that cotter pin ends are turned back carefully and that they are covered with
plastic tape. Each spreader should be checked that the pins are properly in place and that
the spreader is not out of alignment. The end of the spreader where the shroud passes
