Troubleshooting

Both underside of the centre wing and hull keels are designed to hold the
complete weight of the boat provided the weight is distributed along the
complete length of the boat and not at concentrated points.
It is particularly important that the vessel is supported at the front and back
while on the hard so it will not topple over. The rudders are not to be used to
support the boat weight as permanent damage may occur.

ANCHORING

Your Seawind 1160 carries a 45lb Delta anchor as standard with 55m of 8mm
short link galvanized chain. An optional second 35Lb anchor with 10m of chain
and 50m of rope may also be included.
Your boat will also be fitted with a Muir Cougar HRV1200 Electric Winch with up
and down controls operated from the helm. An electric up foot control can be
operated from the front deck and down with manual clutch.
When anchoring your boat the length of anchor warp should be about 4-5 times
the depth of the water. Your Seawind will sit comfortably and securely on a
mooring or at anchor using the forward bow roller.
There may be occasions however that the use of a bridle may make resting at
anchor more stable and less susceptible to chain shock loads. A bridle will
reduce the tendency of your boat to swing around its anchor or mooring.
