It is recommended to keep a reserve of 20% in the fuel tanks.
2 DESIGN CATEGORIES AND DISPLACEMENT - Some of the data is shown on the manufacturer's plate fixed to the boat. The explanation of the data is given in the appropriate chapters of this manual. - The recommended maximum load includes the weight of all the people onboard, of provisions, personal belongings, of all equipment not included in the weight of the boat in ballast, of the cargo (if relevant) and of all liquids contained in fixed tanks when full (fuel, water, grey water, black water).
Page 16
If some of those onboard are children, the total number of people allowed onboard may be increased, provided that:: - The total weight of the children does not exceed 37,5 kg ; AND THAT - the total weight of all allowed onboard (based on about 75 kg per adult) is not exceeded. - Do not exceed the recommended maximum number of people onboard.
DESIGN CATEGORIES Category A: At high sea This craft is designed to operate in winds that may exceed wind force 8 (Beaufort scale) and in significant wave heights of 4 m and above. This craft is largely self-sufficient. Abnormal conditions such as hurricanes are excluded. Such conditions may be encountered on extended voyages, for example across oceans, or inshore when unsheltered from the wind and waves for several hundred nautical miles.
3 STABILITY AND BUOYANCY STABILITY DATA - Fully laden displacement was used to evaluate the stability and buoyancy of the boat. The value of this displacement can be found in paragraph ’ Technical specifications ’ at the beginning of this manual. - Any changes in the distribution of loads onboard (for example by adding a raised structure for fishing, fitting a radar or in-mast furling, changing the engine etc.) can significantly affect the boat's stability, trim and its performance ;...

SAILS DIMENSIONS Performance Classic Cruising square top mainsail - To hoist a crew member up to the top of the mast, make a bowline with the halyard directly on the bosun's chair ring (never use the halyard snap shackle or shackle). - Never hoist a crew member when sailing in heavy weather.
RUNNING RIGGING - Inspect the halyards for wear and condition. - Regularly check the condition of the jam cleat jaws. - Regularly clean the backstay blocks with fresh water. - Avoid aggressive gybing in order to reduce premature wear on the sheets, attachment points and the gooseneck.
SAILS General points - The working life of a sail mainly depends on its being regularly maintained. - When sailing, trim the sails properly in accordance with the stresses in order to reduce the harmful strains on the fabric. - Avoid wear and tear: Protect against chafing on gear with rough/sharp surfaces (spreaders, stanchions, etc).
DECK FITTING General points - Inspect each piece of deck gear regularly (blocks, shackles, swivels, jam cleats, etc): Check that there are no cracks, corrosion or deformation. - When replacing a piece of deck gear, make sure that you use a type with the same strength specifications.
GENOA FURLER Operation - Leave several turns of the furling line around the drum. - Furl/unfurl the genoa slowly so that the furling line is always under light tension thus avoiding any riding turns in the drum. - Never slacken the genoa halyard when furling/unfurling the sail. - When furling in light winds, it is recommended to keep the sheet under slight tension so that the genoa furls correctly.
