NOTE!
Do not lift the boat by its bollards.
DANGER!
Never stand under a boat that is suspended from a crane.
7. Servicing and maintenance
Keep your boat and its equipment clean and tidy. This increases comfort and safety on board, and
also the boat’s resale value.
Familiarise yourself with the service procedures shown in the engine manual (see annex). Have
your engine serviced according to the instructions in the manual.
7.1. Washing and waxing the boat
Normally it is sufficient to just wash and wax the deck and sides. Special boat cleaning agents are
most suitable for the purpose. Do not use strong solvents; they can cause glossy reinforced plastic
surfaces to fade. Mildly abrasive polishes can be used to remove chafes and embedded dirt from
the deck. Fibre glass surfaces can be washed with a pressure washer.
Useful tip: When the boat has been washed with tap water, a thin chalk-like layer of lime and min-
erals will remain on the boat’s surface after it has dried. The problem can be eliminated by adding a
few drops of pine oil soap into a bucket of rinsing water, which will soften it.
Useful tip: Water and lime stains on stainless steel rails and handles disappear when you apply
some Lemon Pled furniture spray. Your railings will shine like the day they came off the assembly
line.
Useful tip:
If the boat’s ropes smell bad after the season, immerse them for a couple of hours in a
bucket of water with a bottle of apple vinegar and a splash of fabric conditioner added. Allow the
lines to dry properly, and they will be as good as new.
7.2. Care instructions for seat cushions
Always use the canopy or harbour cover when it is raining to protect the seat cushions. Although
the seat cushions are made of water-resistant material, water can get in through their seams. It is
advisable to protect the cushions by spraying them with Sunbrella spray. If the cushions remain
damp for any length of time, they may get mouldy and be ruined. If the mattresses get wet, the
fabric can be removed by unzipping the mattress and dried in the sun, at room temperature or in a
sauna (50°C). The warranty does not cover cushions spoilt by rain or damp.
NOTE!
To keep the boat’s seat cushions in good condition over the winter, they should be stored
in a dry, well-ventilated space.
NOTE!
Wet cushions should not be placed in storage, because they gather mould easily.
The press studs of the seat cushions should be sprayed with silicon spray every now and then, oth-
erwise they may become so tight that the fabric will tear when trying to open them. The warranty
does not cover ripped seat cushions. Use very little silicon spray at a time in order not to stain the
cushions.
