19.4.3. Chips in the non-slip paint
Note
: Scratches and chips are not serious to the solidity of the boat, as the outer covering does not form
part of the structure. It is however important that water cannot penetrate through to the
fibreglass. In the event of any significant damage, it is essential you contact your dealer.
19.5. Scratches on the hatch covers
•
Rub with a soft cloth or cotton soaked in a polishing product specifically for PMMA. In the case of
deep scratches, contact your dealer.
19.6. Sails
Sails such a gennaker or a code 0, which have an integral boltrope in the luff and which are rigged on
a furler, must not be left hoisted for long periods or when there is no-one on board.
Other than the question of safety linked to the fact that they could unfurl involuntarily, their UV
protection is lower than that of other furling sails, as they were not designed to be left permanently
hoisted.
Catana does not guarantee any sails which are not used in accordance with the recommendations
above.
WARNING
Never use a solvent for cleaning deck panels and hatches.
