7. Maintenance
7.4. Preventing frost damage
• The bilge pump system is fitted with a water lock on the hose.
◦ Detach the hose and fully drain the water from the water lock and run the pumps dry.
Otherwise the pumps may freeze and break.
• Unscrew the frost plug on the underside of the shower fittings.
◦ If there is no frost plug, unscrew the shower hose.
• Drain the water tank and all other components containing water in order to avoid frost damage.
• Run the freshwater pump dry to drain out all the water.
• Make sure that no water remains in the boat under any circumstances. Leave the hatches in the
cabin partially open.
7.5. Checklist: Before winter lay-up
1.
Wash the hull and bottom immediately after lifting the vessel out of the water.
2.
Wash all parts inside, also under the floorboards.
3.
Leave all lockers, drawers, cabin and wardrobe doors open.
