Storage
It is most important that you store your boat properly, please

periods it's stored in a well ventilated area in order to avoid
an osmosis reaction between hulls and any (transport) sup-
ports.

MAINTENANCE—GENERAL INFORMATION
CAUTION!
Always wash your boat with fresh water after
sailing. Salt water can cause severe corrosion
It is essential that your boat receives the maintenance out-
lined on the following pages to retain the safety, reliability
and performance built into your boat.
Do not leave the rig under tension when not sailing or during
storage. If rig tension is over tightened, or left on when not
sailing damage may occur.
Your boat should only be used with a proper launching trol-
ley. The use of any other trolley may damage the hull and
invalidate your warranty. Care must be taken to support the
hull adequately if the boat is not stored on the correct
launching trolley. Any sustained point loading could perma-
nently dent or distort the hull.
Any repairs to the hull should be undertaken by qualified
personnel with the relevant skills and equipment. Contact
your dealer for advice.
UV light may cause fading to some components and fittings,
a good quality cover is recommended to reduce UV degrada-
tion. Keep the equipment clean by frequently and
thoroughly flushing with fresh water.
Excess water should be removed from the hull and any cavi-
ties. Keep your craft drained and well ventilated. Ensure the
craft is stored with the bow raised to allow water to drain
away. Make sure that when you attach the rudder that
the rudder stop clips over the stock.
Salt water will deteriorate your sail and the stitching if the
sail is not rinsed in fresh water after sailing. Sails should be
dried before storing. Ideally we would recommend that you
should store sails in a convenient dry place away from the
craft. If you have to store sails on the craft ensure that a
good cover is used and that it prevents any water
coming into contact with the sails. Sails will be subject to
mould and mildew if left in water.
Trailers should be rinsed with fresh water and checked at
regular intervals. It is recommended that the trailer be ser-
viced annually. It is also a good idea to tie the craft down
when it is left in the dinghy park to prevent any damage
in the event of strong winds.
