Head Door; Transom Door; Hardware; Cleats - Pro-Line Boats 2008 23 Sport Owner's Manual

Head Door

The poly head door is equipped with a locking latch. To open the door, just pull the latch and pull the
door open. To close the door, slide the door back into the track of the doorframe and push the door
closed until it snaps in place. The latch will engage itself.
The door should never remain open when you are underway or when conditions might cause a
passenger to lose their balance and accidentally fall through the doorway.
The locking latch comes with a set of two numbered keys. We recommend that you make note of the key
number and keep it in a safe place. In the event that you need to replace the keys, this will allow you to
replace just the keys and not the entire lock assembly.
See the Service and Care section of this manual for cleaning recommendations.

Transom Door

The poly transom door is located on the starboard aft corner of the boat. The sliding bolt style latch
secures the door in the closed position. To open the door, slide the latch starboard (to the right when
standing on the dive platform). The transom door should always remain closed while underway.

Hardware

Cleats

Your boat is equipped with 6 standard cleats. They are installed to provide areas to permit you to tie off
the boat at dockside, tie off to another boat that is anchored, secure bumpers/fenders, and/or tie off the
anchor (when dropped) to prevent the line from pulling on the windlass, etc. You should never use the
cleats for towing another boat or skier.

Hand Rails

Bow Rail - The low profile bow rail is constructed of stainless steel. The railing, which is through bolted to
the gunwale, is provided for safety. Never use the bow rail to tie off to anything heavier than a
bumper/fender. Do not use the bow rail for anchoring, or to tie off to the dock or another boat. Do not
use the bow rail to tow another boat or skier. Never stand on the bow rail or use it as leverage when
pulling up an anchor, a fish or any other objects. Do not use the bow rail to tie off and/or secure a large
catch, etc.
Grab Rail – A stainless steel grab rail has been installed at the boarding ladder to provide safe boarding
on the boat.

Gunwale Trim / Rubrail

A white rigid vinyl gunwale trim with a stainless steel insert is installed at the juncture of the deck and hull.
This durable trim provides a nice clean look and serves as somewhat of a cushion when you are docking,
coming along side another vessel, etc.
See the Service and Care section of this manual for cleaning recommendations.
