If at all possible you should try never to run the wipers on a dry windshield. This will dramatically reduce the life of
your wiper blades.

Windows

Two (2) styles of windows have been installed in the cabin.
Cabin Hatch - A cabin hatch complete with screen is installed in the
ceiling of the main cabin. To open the window, remove the screen, turn
both levers forward and push the hatch open to the desired position. To
hold the hatch in place, tighten the black plastic cylinders on both of the
mounting arms. Then replace the screen. DO NOT allow passengers
to sit or stand on the hatch as they could break the hatch. The hatch
should be in the closed and latched position when the vessel is
underway.
Two smaller but similar hatches are installed in the fiberglass hard top
There is a black plastic cylinder on
for added air circulation in helm area.
each mounting arm.
Cabin Portholes - Two portholes complete with screens are installed in
the main cabin. One is located in the galley and the other is located in
the head. To open the porthole window, loosen the 3 star nuts by
turning them in a counter clockwise direction. Then, rotate each of the
star nuts down/away from the plastic window; the window is hinged at
the top. Once the star nuts are out of the way, lift the window open and
away from the frame by pulling on the phalanges at the bottom of the
window.
When finished, close the window, rotate each of the star nuts back into
place and turn the star nuts in a clockwise direction to secure the

Hardware

Cleats

Your boat is equipped with 7 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.

Bow Handrail

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.

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.
