Section 13: Hull Care

The hull of the HyperSport™ 48 is finished
using the highest quality paints and the
most advanced painting methods available.
The base coat/clear coat technique delivers
an amazing shine that is as durable as it is
beautiful. To keep your HyperSport 48 looking
new, you should apply a wax coating as used
on automotive finishes to prevent oxidation
and to further protect against damage caused
by fuel and other harmful chemicals.

Section 14: Maintenance

The Pro Boat HyperSport 48 should provide
many hours of exciting high-speed racing fun
with just minor maintenance. Preventative
maintenance is very important. Taking the
time to ensure that all the setscrews and bolts
are tight before each operation of the boat will
prevent many problems.
Before operating the HyperSport 48
Check that all screws and hardware are
securely in place. This is very important, as
the muffler screws may occasionally vibrate
loose during the initial runs.
Check the propeller for damage in the form of
chipping or cracking. If you find any damage,
replace the propeller, as the damage will effect
the performance of the boat and could also
cause safety concerns.
When refueling, always wipe away any excess
fuel that may have spilled into or on the boat.
After operating the HyperSport 48
Drain all the fuel from the fuel system. Wipe
off any exhaust residue from the boat. If
you operate the HyperSport 48 in salt water,
thoroughly rinse the deck, hull, and all the
metal hardware with fresh water, then dry
them with a clean towel. Flush the cooling
system with fresh water. After cleaning, coat
all metal parts with a silicone spray lubricant.
This will help to prevent corrosion. Ensure that
the radio box and equipment inside are dry.
Any damage caused by saltwater corrosion
or fuel damage is not covered under warranty.
