CENTURY BOATS
It's most important to clean and rinse well.
DO IT OFTEN! DO IT PROPERLY! How often you need to wash your boat depends on how often you use it and your
local environment. You should clean your boat each and every time you use it. If the boat is stored in a marine
environment, it will need to be cleaned more often. If the local conditions expose the aluminum or stainless steel
to harsh chemicals, then washing on a regular basis is highly recommended.
KEEP IT SIMPLE! Always use a mild, non-abrasive soap and lots of FRESH water (not saltwater). Thoroughly wash
the aluminum with a soft towel or sponge. Using lots of soap and water will remove dried salt crystals and other
contaminates. Rinse completely with direct water pressure.
As well, the stainless steel on your boat has corrosion-resistant qualities which are inherent to the metal itself.
These qualities help the stainless steel form an iron chromium oxide film which in turn protect it from forming rust.
If there are signs of rusting:
•
Wash with Fresh water and a high-quality detergent
•
Clean with an automobile chrome polish
•
Wax with an automobile or fiberglass wax
•
For brushed finishes... those finishes that show grit lines, an abrasive cleaner or sand paper can be used.
Always test a small area first and go in the same direction of the grain
Avoidable:
•
DO NOT clean with chlorinated cleaners (NO BLEACH) or scouring powders.
•
DO NOT use sand paper or abrasive cleaners on buffed or mirror finished metals.
•
DO NOT clean with muriatic or hydrochloric acids.
Important Tips: Wash with lots of freshwater
•
Wash often enough to keep contaminates from forming or building up.
•
Avoid the use of bleach or chlorides to clean aluminum, stainless steel, or nearby components. Chlorides can
leach into the metal when used nearby.
•
Avoid abrasive cleaning products. For anodized aluminum products, NEVER use steel or brass wool, wire
brushes, polishing wheels, rubbing or polishing compounds. These items will remove the anodizing and will
lead to pitting.
•
Pay close attention when cleaning the pipe and tubing directly beneath the top or canvas. These areas do not
receive the natural rinsing action of rainwater. The area is shielded from the sun and does not dry as
completely or as quickly as the rest of the frame. It is often overlooked when cleaning the boat. This area is
likely to be the first place that staining or pitting will occur.

16. Electrical Schematics

The following schematic drawings will provide a reference for you if you need to trace the wiring or electronic
components on your boat. Schematics 1-6 provide data on the battery panel, main harness, bilge, deck harness,
main switch harness and the digital control harness. Schematics 7-8 provide data on the electric head harness and
hard-top harness, optional components. Schematic 9 provides data in the event you choose dual engines for the
quad battery panel.
