It is the responsibility of the owner/user of the boat to ensure that the berthing lines, towing cables, chains and mooring lines and the anchors are adequate for the intended use
of the boat, i.e. that the lines or chains do not exceed 80 % of the breaking strength of the corresponding anchor point.

Breaking Strength
Note: Measurements are expressed in kN.
If non-metal anchor points are installed on the boat, their limited lifespan must be taken into account. They must be replaced as soon as they show signs of deterioration, visible
surface cracks or permanent deformation.
Note: black components are less sensitive to UV radiation than light coloured ones.
Pass warps through the fairleads provided for this purpose.
