ish out the stainless finish for a mirror shine.
• Do...Rinse thoroughly with fresh water after each cruise.
Thorough rinsing can prevent a lot of the surface staining
that stainless steel produces when left in contact with salt
water residue.
• Do...Dry after each use to prevent mineral deposits from
building up on the surface of the finish.
• Don’t...Scour the stainless. Scouring can damage the
original finish.
• Most brands of cleansers contain chemical additives
which will affect the original high polish finish if left on the
stainless.
• Don’t...Use a steel wool pad to clean your stainless. If
a more abrasive product is needed, use a stainless pol-
ishing paste being sure to rub in the paste with a clean
rag. Steel wool pads have a tendency to break apart and
small particles of steel can become embedded in the sur-
face and will rust and will give the appearance that the
stainless itself is rusting.
Following these recommendations for the care and clean-
ing of your stainless steel will help insure that it will pro-
vide you with many years of service.
Chlorides
Today, chlorides are found in almost all soaps, deter-
gents, bleaches and cleansers; chlorides can be aggres-
sive to stainless steel. However, chlorides are very water
soluble. Therefore, THOROUGH RINSING of your bright
work after each use will help to keep your stainless look-
ing bright and shiny.
Scratches
Like many metallic surfaces, your stainless steel will
scratch. These are merely usage scratches and over time
will blend into the overall finish. Surface scratches can
be polished out with a polishing paste but this can be a
lengthy and work intense process.
14.2.6 Deck Hatches
Wax the rubber gaskets on all deck hatches with a car-
nauba wax to ensure gasket material does not stick to
Plexiglass.
14.2.7 Acrylic and Plexiglass
Important: Do not use glass cleaning sprays, scouring
compounds, or solvents (such as acetone, gasoline, or
thinners) to clean acrylic or Plexiglass.
Following are guidelines for cleaning acrylic and Plexiglass
parts:
* Wash acrylic hatches, windows, and any other acrylic
compounds with mild soap and plenty of lukewarm
water.
* Use a clean, soft cloth.
* Apply only a light pressure when cleaning.
* Rinse with clear water, and blot dry with a damp cloth
or chamois.
14.2.8 Windows
The window frames on your boat are made of high qual-
ity aluminum with an enamel paint surface. The frames
need no maintenance other than cleaning with soap and
water. Do not use abrasive or strong chemicals. These
may damage the finish and allow corrosion to start.
Frames should be protected with marine wax.
The glass in the frames is tempered safety glass and
requires only normal cleaning.
The side windows and deck hatches are made of acrylic
plastic. Refer to instructions for cleaning acrylic and
Plexiglass.
14.2.9 Caulking
All deck fitting, bow rails, windows, hatches, etc, have
been caulked with the highest quality material to ensure
a waterproof joint with the boat. However, normal use will
flex the joint and eventually break down the seal.
Note: We recommend that al deck fittings, hatches, windows,
rail, etc. be caulked periodically to prevent damaging leaks from
developing.
14.2.10 Bottom Paint
We recommend an annual cleaning, sanding, and appli-
cation of anti-fouling paint. Some owners may have
problems with paint failure because of unusually deep
penetration of the parting compound used in molding the
hull. This condition is unpredictable and is not covered by
warranty. Usually cleaning and light sanding is all that is
needed before recoating with a quality anti-fouling paint.
Check with your boat dealer for recommendations about
the specific paint to be used in your area.
Important: Do not paint the zinc anodes (connected to the
