  • Page 3: Responsibility Of The Installer

    Plan the installation of the electrical parts including the control panel and wiring runs based on the information in the manual. Your Sleipner representative will be able to help make an educated decision for what is the best solution for your boat and your preferences. Before starting the installation, the Sleipner representative can ensure that you are not installing parts and products that will not meet your expectations.

  • Page 8: Fin Positioning

    Fin Positioning MC_0962 Quay Electric Fins should not extend outside the beam including the fenders, or below the keel/propeller when i neutral position. Fins should be placed as far outboard as possible, and NOT in-line with the propellers, to ensure avoiding possible disturbance of the water flow to the props which in the worst case can cause vibrations / cavitation.
  • Page 9 Fin Positioning MC_0207 Middle 1/4 of Waterline Waterline at rest Waterline at speed Middle 1/4 of Waterline at speed To avoid unwanted influences on the steering characteristics, the fi ns should be placed close to the vessel longitudinal centre of gravity (LCG) - If unknown, this is usually a little aft of 50% of the waterline length.
