Please read the manual carefully and familiarise yourself with your boat before using it. At Anytec, we believe that you shall be free to choose a suitable outboard engine for your specific needs. For this reason, the boat manual cannot be very detailed on engine related topics.
wind with a danger of unusual waves and gusts. These are dangerous conditions that necessitate a skilled and fit crew and a well-maintained boat. If your craft is equipped with a life raft, study its instructions carefully. The boat must be equipped with the appropriate safety equipment (life vests, safety harnesses, etc.) as required for the boat type and the weather conditions.
1.4 E XPLANATION OF SAFETY LABELS The labels that advise the owner/operator regarding necessary safety precautions are mounted at the key locations of your boat (refer chapter 3.7 to learn their location). These safety precautions should be followed while operating/servicing the equipment and hence are duplicated in this manual.
The code is added at the factory and enables them to access the boat and owner details from a database. The SecurMark system requires a subscription and Anytec pre-pays it for the first 12 months after you register your ownership details. We encourage you to activate SecurMark and continue the subscription after the first 12 months of free service.
2. OPERATING THE BOAT WARNING Read and make sure you understand the operation and safety topics of this owner’s manual before you operate the boat for the first time. 2.1 S AFETY ROUTINES BEFORE LEAVING SHORE Familiarise yourself with this owner’s manual. Always check the following items before leaving shore: 2.1.1 Weather and forecast Consider the wind, waves and visibility.
regular charts onboard. There is always a risk for technical malfunction of electronic devices; therefore regular charts are also important. 2.1.8 Safety check of the boat Check that hatches are closed and watertight. Ventilate the stern sofa storage where batteries are installed. Ventilate the bow sofa storage where the Webasto fuel tank (optional) is installed;...
2.3 M OVERBOARD PREVENTION AND RECOVERY Refer chapter 3.6 for passenger and working areas of the boat. Other areas must not be occupied when underway, due to the risk of falling potentially into the water. If a person has fallen into the water in calm seas, the person can use the rescue ladder located on the stern platform, see the figure given below.
2.4 F IRE PREVENTION Fire is a serious boating hazard; because boats burn quickly. Do not remain onboard and fight a fire for longer. If the fire is out of control and cannot be put out with the fire suppression equipment onboard, abandon ship immediately. It is the ultimate responsibility of the boat owner to inspect and maintain the boat’s fire prevention and fire-fighting equipment.
1. Fire Extinguisher Principal figure only WARNING Never obstruct passageways to exits/hatches, safety controls (fuel valves, LPG valves, electrical switches, etc.), portable fire extinguishers and fire ports; never allow unqualified personnel to modify any of the boat's systems. Have the fire-fighting equipment checked at the intervals indicated on the equipment.
1. Fireport 2.4.3 Refuelling Before you start to fill the engine fuel tank, turn off the engine and naturally any cigarettes or any other open flames like stoves, candles or lamps with flames. It is not allowed to use switches or appliances that can cause spark formation during fuelling.
Always fill the tank outside of the boat (refer chapter 4.16). Read the Webasto owner’s manual carefully as it includes further instructions and warnings. Anytec recommends checking all the air and fuel connections for leaks each season.
Start the engine according to the manufacturer's owner’s manual. If the engine does not start, or functions poorly, check for instructions in the manual. If unsuccessful, contact your engine dealer (in most cases it is your Anytec dealer). 2.5.2 After starting the engine Check the cooling water control beam, to ensure that the cooling system is working properly (visible just below the engine hood, well above water level).
in the engine manual. Especially when you are driving the boat alone, it is crucial that the boat stops if you fall overboard or stumble onboard. Remember to unfasten the lanyard before coming ashore or moving around in the boat. If not, an abrupt engine stop may cause fast boat movements.
4. Handling is impaired as speed increases. Rapid turns can lead to loss of control. Slow down before sharp turns in either direction. Avoid rapid movements while driving at high speeds, in high waves and at strong winds. 5. Never operate the boat if the engine rated power exceeds the maximum recommended power.
Page 25
The engine trim is used to adjust the bow up or down (the so-called pitch) while the boat is under speed. A well-adjusted engine trim will maximise safety and comfort, and will minimise fuel consumption. Mastering the trim requires some practice so if you are uncertain, ask someone experienced for help.
Please note that while Zipwake system (refer chapter 4.7) is primarily managing the boat roll, however in auto mode it assists with reaching planing faster by helping the engine to push down the bow until planing speed is reached. The settings are factory made, refer chapter 4.7.
Roll Control Principal figure only NOTE The Zipwake auto mode has been set with factory settings optimised for this boat. If you change them and forget how then they cannot be reset without importing them from a USB memory stick with the factory settings. Please read the Zipwake manual and save the settings prior to making any changes yourself.
Never operate the engine with the canopy enclosed unless there is ventilation throughout the boat (i.e. forward and aft canvas panels are opened to allow air flow through the boat). Make sure that the air inlets on the cockpit side panels are open when the canopy is in use.
Page 29
Mooring: When coming ashore or mooring to a quay the boat must be properly secured. The boat, when moored, should withstand high winds and rough seas. The boat should not be moored with temporary fastenings if the crew is not nearby. Make sure other boats are not damaged by your boat and consider the effect of the wake of passing vessels.
Page 30
Anchoring: When you anchor or land temporarily in a natural harbour, ensure sufficient water depth. Drop the anchor at a sufficient distance from shore, allowing time for the anchor to drop and grip and to release enough anchor rope/chain. The anchor rope/chain length should be at least 4-5 times the water depth.
WARNING 1. Do not stop the boat by hand and don’t put your hand or foot between the boat and the quay, bank, or another boat. Practice landing in good condition, use engine power moderately but not tentatively. 2. Towing or being towed can lead to fatigue of the boat’s hardware and lines. Failure of any part can seriously injure people or damage the boat.

If the boat is equipped with a bow thruster, a separate battery with its own high current fuse, located in the stern electrical department powers it. Anytec has equipped the boat with empty spare circuits where Auxiliary Equipment (aftermarket products) can be installed. These are marked as AUX on the fuse panel, and on the helm control panel.
WARNING Always disconnect the power using the main switches, before any work on the electrical system. Failure to do so may cause electric shocks, or sparks that can ignite fuel fumes. Always ventilate areas with fuel or batteries before any work, and never use open flames in these areas.
5.3 B ATTERY SELECTOR SWITCH Service and starting battery: Your vessel as standard is equipped with two battery main switches. If your boat has only one battery, only one is in use. When you turn the battery switch to the ON position, power is provided to the engine and consumers (if one battery) or to just engine or consumers (2 batteries).
Remote control of switches: The battery main switches can also be operated remotely by remote switches installed at the helm. As standard 2 such switches are provided at the helm, whereof 1 or 2 are used depending on how many batteries that are installed. See the figure in chapter 5.4. If the boat has an optional bow thruster, there will be a 3rd remote control switch for the thruster battery (not shown in the figure).
Electrical schematics are included as printed attachments to this manual. They can also be obtained from your dealer or Anytec if they are lost. These electrical schematics can be used for technical reference and professional service technicians. If you lack professional skills for this kind of system, contact your local authorised Anytec dealer for help.
Specialists manufacture other parts such as engine and navigation systems. To ensure the best possible instructions, we sometimes refer to the specific OEM maintenance manuals. These are provided with the boat (please check the Anytec document bag). This applies to the following components (reference is given to the operations chapter in this boat manual): Reference chapter in this owner’s...
If you have any question regarding maintenance of your boat, contact your local Anytec dealer for additional assistance. DANGER While using chemicals, read all information from the manufacturer regarding safety and handling of the material.
It is essential to choose the correct type of primer and top coat, suitable for aluminium hulls and your local conditions. If the boat was delivered with antifouling from the factory (optional), Anytec have used the following products: ...
One of the most important maintenance tasks when owning a boat is making sure you protect the hull and engine from electrolytic corrosion. This can otherwise quickly create serious damages. Anytec boats are therefore equipped with sacrificial anodes, made from zinc, which is designed to corrode instead of the boat and the engine. They are mounted at the bottom recess (see the figure).
Stainless steel is strong and corrosion resistant but still requires frequent routine cleaning to maintain the surface finish. Anytec recommends that you wash stainless steel components with mild soap and cold /lukewarm water after every use of the boat. If added protection is necessary, apply a cleaning wax.
Chemical treatments of the fabric can improve the resistance to ultraviolet light and water. Consult your Anytec dealer or canopy experts for advice. Be careful to not treat canopy windows with such chemicals.
If the fender is dirty or discoloured, use regular mild detergents like boat shampoo and a soft brush. If the fender looks faded, a treatment with “tire/bumper shine” or similar care products for rubber can be used. Ask you Anytec dealer for advice if you are uncertain.
6.3.8 MOB rescue & swim ladder The ladder is a safety device, and lack of maintenance may make it hard or impossible to use safely. It is important to check the function of the ladder regularly. At the same time also check (at least yearly) that it is properly fastened to the boat and has no cracks or corrosion damages.
PARE PARTS SERVICE To ensure the best possible performance, safety and lifetime of your Anytec boat, it is important only to use high-quality spare parts that are suitable and approved for your specific boat application. Failure to do so may jeopardise the safety, lifetime and performance.
