Interlude Owners' Notes
Furling the Foresail
Prepare the genoa furling line and jib sheets (uncoil the furling line,
remove the unloaded job sheet from the winch). Open the clutch
on the furling line cleat if it is closed. Have the helmsman head into
the wind on a slight starboard tack and release the loaded job
sheet from the winch. Furling is easy without the winch, but use
whatever works best for you.
Furl the genoa while maintaining light pressure on the jib sheet –
this will keep the wraps snug. Furl until the sheets wrap once
around the forestay. Coil and hang the furling line from the port
safety line, again being careful not to allow line to fall in the water.
Reefing marks on genoa.
Reefing the Foresail
Reefing the foresail follows the same procedures as furling. There are two reefing marks to guide you as
to how much sail to take in. Once the foresail is reefed tension the furling line and close its cleat.

SWIM PLATFORM

Interlude is equipped with an electric swim platform, a great place to relax and it makes loading and off-
loading the dinghy or kayaks easy. The controls for the swim platform are located at the starboard helm.
Don't sail or motor with the swim platform open; it's designed for use when anchored, on a mooring
ball, or docked.
To open / close the platform, press the button on the sliding lock bar on the starboard side of the deck,
behind the starboard helm. Slide the lock bar to the right. To lower the deck, depress and hold down the
red button on the rocker switch located on the side of the starboard helm, then simultaneously press
and hold the bottom of the rocker switch (to open) or top (to close). When closing the platform watch
the restraining lines, which tend to get caught between the deck and the hull – move as necessary. Close
the sliding lock bar after retracting the platform and close the safety lines.
There is a remote-control fob for the swim deck in the Nav table, useful for closing/opening the deck for
security when leaving the boat.

TABLES

Interlude's two main seating areas each have a folding table – the cockpit and the main cabin, which are
great for entertaining or playing games.
Cockpit Table
The cockpit table has two leaves that lift up and fold down, with dual latches that lock it in place. They
engage when you lift the leaf, and release when you reach under the table and depress the two latches
simultaneously. The forward compartment is an insulated cooler with drainage for ice and drinks.
