Fuel And Battery Usage; Clean The Boat; Salt Water/Brackish Water Extra Attention - Axis A20 Owner's Manual

Note how much fuel and battery charge were used. Axis recommends keeping a
chart or binder with information from your outing. If you note the conditions during
the outing, the length of time, and the final readings, you'll have a much better idea
of normal operations. That gives you the clues you need when readings are different
or you are anticipating an outing that will be different and you need to prepare for
those conditions.
Give the boat a good general cleaning as outlined in the On-Going Care
information that precedes this section.
As noted earlier, on-going care is important. Read that section to determine the
normal expectations regarding routine care.
To properly protect and ensure long life for vulnerable components, following
the operation in salt or brackish water, provide extra attention to the cleaning
process.
Begin by gathering the following supplies:
• WD-40 Long-Term Corrosion Inhibitor (as opposed to regular WD-40; the
typical WD-40 does not contain all the protective ingredients of the Long-Term
