MAINTENANCE ( 5.1 ~ SUMMAR Y SECTION5 INTRODUCTION This section of the manual consists 0: a summary of the maintenance required for the hull. deck and interio GELCOAT SURFACES A fresh water hose-down of deck and topsides at every opportunity, plus an occasional washing with soap anld water will help preserve the gelcoat surfaces. Use a spange or a :soft brush on the smooth surfaces, and a stiff brush on the non-skid ar(~as. Rinse thoroughly with fresh water to avoid streaking. CAUTION: Do not use abrasive clt~aners for cleaning. dull the gelcoat surface. It will rapidly At least once a year, the smooth gl~lcoat surfaces should be cleaned thoroughly, washed, and polished. P\.cetone can be used for cleaning stubborn areas. Abrasive cleaners sh,ould be used sparingly, if at alt. Use a wax especially formulated für jjberglass surfaces. CA U TI 0 N : Never use acetone on any plastic parts. Avoid using too much acetone or from puddling the acetone on gelcoated areas that have come in contact with acetone should be wiped off and rinsed immediately with fresh water. ( r. mmable, vapors can accumulate in CA U T ION: Acetone is highly fla This can cause a lire hall air.I.ys closed space. Vapors are heavier t the warning labels on heed resulting in personal injury. Alw~ acetone containers. 5.3 STAINLESS STEEL AND ALUMINUM As our environment is changing, it hag become increasingly important to protect meta! surfaces exposed to the atmosphere. We recommend cleaning stainless steel and aluminuI n with a metal polish (i.e.. nonParticular abrasive) and coating with wax thre:e (3) times per year. attention should be given to welded connections. BELOW THE WATER LINE With the exception of small crat't that are removed from the water after each use, all vessels require same form of bottom protection to avoid the accumulation of bottom growth, The class ruIes also require bottom paint, This usually needs to be done on a yearly basis, Although fresh water areas do not generate as much fouling as occurs in saft water, it nevertheless will cause growth of moss, grass, and other flora that will significantly affect the performance of the yacht, CA U T ION: Always wear the appropriate protective equipment when cleaning, sanding, painting, etc. Always heed manufacturers recommendations, failure to do so may result in injury or illness. 5.4.1 BOTTOM CLEANING ( Cleaning the accumulated growth from a boat bottom is far easier when the growth is wet than after it has been allowed to dry out. While still wet. a power spray and stiff brush will remove most bottom growth. Barnacles that resist this action can be removed with a scraper. BQTTOM PREPARATION Most bottom paints require removal of all loose material from the bottom, and a thorough hut light sanding of any portions of the old paint that remains in good condition. A proper sanding procedure will normally take off approximately the same amount of old paint as it's intended to be reapplied. This avoids excessive paint accumulation that will eventually cause peeling and roughness on the bottom. 5.4.3 BOTTOM The actual formula of the bottom paint that should be applied iso to a great extent, determined by the general area in which the yacht is expected to operate (fresh or galt water, temperate or tropical areas, etc.). Local advice from reputable yards is helpful. Application of bottom paint should always conform to the manufacturer's instructions if maximum effect is to be achieved. Some bottom paints recommend thinning, others do not. Some specify that the boat be returned to the water before the paint hag completely dried out (usually 3 or 4 darg) and others make no qualifications in this area, hut may have other requirements. ( 8 , PAINTING ( CA U TI 0 N: Some bottom paint formulas are not compatible with others and cannot be applied directly over Olle another without proper preparation. The owner should keep arecord of the type bottom paint that is in use to avoid any problems in this area. 5.5 HARDWARE Deck hardware can easily be maintained by thoroughly flushing with freshwater. This is true for both fresh and saltwater environments. Suspended silt in freshwater and satt in seawater will reduce the performance of hearings, blocks stoppers, etc. Winches should be maintained in accordance with the winch manufacturers procedurcs. Loose deck hardware should always be stored below to prevent UV degredation and theft. , . HAUL OUT PROCEDURE Basically reverse the steps in the launch procedure. Thoroughly and clean the bottom. wash If the boat is to be derigged, reverse the steps in all procedures in Sections 2.4 and 2.5. AFTER HAULING .EXTENDED STOI Wash topsides, deck, and alt other extlerior fiberglass surfaces. except the non-skid surfaces. ( Wax all Remove all sails; follow sailmaker's instructions in regard to cleaning, and store in a dry place. Remove all sheets and lines. clean. and store in a dry place. If the mast hag been removed from the yacht, remove all stars and shrouds from the mast. Wash the entire star or shroud assembly, using freshwater and a stiff brush, dry thoroughly, and coil into large non-kinking coils. Store the coils in a dry place. Wash and wax all spars, coil halyards into non-kinking coils, and secure them to the mast. Store the mast outside with adequate support along its length. If mast is to remain stepped, remove boom, clean. and store as described before; clean shroud/stay end fittings, toggles, etc. using freshwater and a stiff brush apply g. light coating of silicone grease. paying particular attention to the en<1 fittings where they connect to the stars and shrouds. Remove all electronic gear that may require servicing during the winter. ( Remove fire recharging. extinguishers für weighing, checking, and any necessary If security is likely to be a problem. remove easily stolen items such as compasses and radio transmitters; store in a safe place. If cushions are left aboard, place on edge to encourage ventilation. If the boat is to be covered, ensure tJlat the cover is installed in such a,tion, war as to provide adequate ventil~ and that the cover is not permitted to chafe against portions 01 the hull. If the boat is not to be covered, ensure that mechanisms such as winches are provided with adequate covers. If the mast is to remain stepped. snub all shrouds and haiyards to minimize noise and wear. k~ ( 'P l-U~ ll,J"T"'O ß~(..lL1 P '- /r1r'I,:,:"" ~ (' J - 1, s-'r.1 -- I M\""'f'\:"1- IU ,.
