  • Page 30: Folding Sails

    Folding Mainsail If your yacht does not have a self-furling mainsail system, one of the easiest methods of folding is with the sail still on the boom: Tighten topping lift to support boom. 2 Lower the sail fully. 3 Ensure the coachroof hatches are closed. 4 Ease the tension in the foot of the sail by releasing the clew outhaul.
  • Page 31 Some yachts are fitted with furling headsails but if not, the headsail must be removed and bagged when not in use. Bagging 1 Put the head of the sail into the sailbag. 2 Work the luff, leech and body of the sail in together. 3 Leave the tack and clew until last and pass the sailbag neck cord through both tack and clew before drawing tight.
  • Page 32: Setting Sails

    Setting No yacht wil sail well if the sails are badly set. The points which follow are therefore included to assist in setting sails correctly. Hoisting Whilst this is a very straight forward procedure in itself, the amount of tension in the halyard depends on wind conditions.
  • Page 33: Maintenance

    Maintenance Rigging checks During the sailing season when your yacht is in commission, regular maintenance checks should be carried out and particularly before a long voyage. 1 Examine all steel/wire ropes for corrosion, wear and damage. 2 Examine all terminations for signs of wear, cracks or damage. Pay particular attention to all split pins, they should be the largest size possible to pass through the cotter pinhole with at least 3/4"...
  • Page 34: Mast

    See autumn overhaul in Kemps 'Hints and advice on rigging and tuning your Kemp Roller Roller furling gear must be lubricated and cleaned regularly in accordance with the manufacturers recommendations.. Sails should be checked regularly and repairs effected for the following: 1 Chaffing occurring mainly at spreaders and on foot of large sails.
  • Page 35: Steering Systems

    Moody 425 Constellation 400 36" * Tiller steering is standard on Moody 31, wheel steering fitted only as an option. Emergency All yachts, less those fitted with two steering positions as standard, are supplied with an emergency tiller. This is fitted in a tiller socket located either within the yacht or externally under a blanking cover.
  • Page 36: Constellation Systems

    Constellation Systems The Whitlock Constellation 400 system, comprises a pedestal complete with friction brake and conduit plate assembly. The system consists of: Engine control and guard rail. 2-turn tangential Unit. 12" or 15" quadrant in either aluminium or bronze, bored and keyed to suit rudder stock.
  • Page 37: Rudders

    All yachts are fitted with a partial skeg hung, semi-balanced rudder. It consists of a long stainless steel stock passing through the hull. A stainless steel stiffening plate is welded to the stock and a GRP rudder is moulded over the stock and plate. For wheel operation, a steering quadrant is fitted to the stock within the hull area.
  • Page 38: Maintenance

    Maintenance Rudders Rudders become less efficient as bush wear increases. Bushes should therefore be checked at the end of each season and repaired as necessary. Rudders may leak slightly as the 'O' rings become worn. These should be checked at the end of each season and replaced as necessary.

  • Page 45: Running-In

    Running It is recommended to run-in new engines (20 hours) following these basic points: 1 Do not excessively rev engine. 2 In the event of a warning light or alarm, stop the engine immediately. 3 All gear changes should be implemented at low engine revolution (i.e. from neutral).
  • Page 46: Fuel Systems

    A diesel water tap is mounted on a bulkhead within the engine compartment. The bowl should be checked periodically for water content and drained as necessary. Return All diesel engine installations in Moody yachts are fitted with fuel return pipes to allow surplus fuel to be returned to the tank. Fuel Fuel tank contents are determined by either sightglass or fuel gauge.
  • Page 47: Cooling Systems

    Cooling systems The basic cooling system is illustrated below. Seawater is drawn into the system by the engine impeller, entering the yacht through a skin fitting. It passes through a seacock and a filter before passing through the engine and the mixer box and out through the exhaust system.
  • Page 48: Water Filter

    This is a very basic strainer forming part of the water inlet seacock (see illustration on page 1.2). Inspection and cleaning should be carried out as follows: 1 Ensure the seacock is in the closed position. 2 Unscrew the wing nuts and swing the cap aside. 3 Withdraw the plastic filter and inspect/clean.
  • Page 49: Engine Controls

    Engine controls All yachts are fitted with the a single lever 'TX' type throttle and gear change lever. Gear selection Forward is selected by pushing the lever forward, the further forward it is pushing the higher the engine revs. Reverse is selected by pulling lever aft and again, the further aft it is pulled, the higher the engine revs.
  • Page 50: Turbocharged Engines

    first that the engine 'stop' control is in the 'run'position. On engines fitted with mechanical stop systems, do not turn the key to the 'off position whilst the engine is running. This can seriously damage the charging system, particularly the alternator. If your engine fails to start, when the batteries are in good condition, check first that the engine 'STOP' control is in the 'Run' position.
  • Page 51: Stern Gear

    4 If the engine has been run hard for a long period, let it idle for a few minutes before switching off. This is sometimes known as 'Turbo Run Down'. In all engines, it will avoid the risk of 'After Boil', a condition where the cooling system temperature continues to rise because of lack of circulation.
  • Page 52: Calcium Deposits

    Calcium deposits Where yachts remain unused for long periods it is possible for a hard calcium deposit to form on the propeller shaft. If this deposit forms between the joins in the cutlass bearing, when the shaft revolves for the first tune the hard calcium deposit can cause damage to the bearing surface.
  • Page 53: Maintenance

    Maintenance Basic engine care The following basic points, if adhered to, will ensure long engine life. The most critical period in the life of a marine diesel engine is the first 20 - 30 running hours. If in any doubt, the engine manufacturer's manual should be referred to. 1 Do not start an engine unless you are sure: •...
