4. Transporting the boat
4.1 Hoisting the boat
When hoisting the boat, use an appropriate frame, so that the railing and bodywork do not get
damaged. Adjust the hoists so that the boat is horizontal when lifted. Cover the hoists with soft material
to prevent scratches. Do not stand under the boat as it is hoisted.
CAUTION!
Never attach hoists to bollards, railings or other detachable parts of the boat.

4.2 Transportation
If you transport the boat by trailer, check with the dealer that it is suitable for the model in question.
Ensure that the keel is positioned straight on the middle rolls and that the side supports prevent the
boat from moving back and forth. Attach the transportation ropes. Do not leave any loose objects on
board during transportation. The boat should be transported unloaded.

Check the following items with the naked eye before launching the boat:
- fastenings (make sure they are tight)
- hoses, tanks, valves, outlets/inlets and rainwater drainage
- electrical wiring
- any damage
Check these regularly throughout the season.
