Re-treating the Fabric - Sunbrella fabrics are treated with a fluorocarbon finish to enhance water 
repellency.  This finish is designed to last for several years, but must be replenished after a thorough 
cleaning.  Based on test results, Glen Raven recommends 

303 High Tech Fabric Guard™

 as the 

preferred re-treatment product for Sunbrella fabrics.  Fabrics should be retreated after thorough cleaning 
or after five years of use.  Check with your local Sunbrella dealer or distributor for additional information. 

For more information, visit the Sunbrella website at www.sunbrella.com for specific recommendations. 
 
 

Vinyl

 

 

Exterior Vinyl – Upholstered Seats and Cockpit Bolsters 

Vinyl requires periodic cleaning to maintain its neat appearance and to prevent the build-up of dirt and 
contaminants that may permanently stain and reduce the life of the vinyl if they are not removed.  The 
frequency of cleaning depends on the amount of use and on environmental conditions to which the vinyl 
is subjected.  The procedures used for cleaning are dependent upon the end use circumstances. 
 
For normal cleaning, most stains can be cleaned using warm soapy water and a clear water rinse.  
Moderate scrubbing with a medium bristle brush will help to loosen soiling material from the depressions 
of embossed surfaces.  For stubborn stains, use either Fantastic or Mr. Clean, which are commercially 
available mild detergents, in accordance with manufacturers instructions. 
 
For additional information regarding the care and maintenance of this product, please refer to the 
Morbern brochure provided in your owner’s package for recommended methods to clean specific types of 
stains. 
 
 

Winterizing and Storage 

 
Your new Pro-Line was winterized before it left the factory.  If you launch the boat prior to storing it for the 
winter, please complete and/or comply with the following check list in order to ensure an easy “fitting out” 
in the spring: 
 
Pre-Storage Check List: 
 

•

•

• 

Drain all water systems, including the head, and pump an approved antifreeze through all 
pumps, valves, drains and lines. 

• 

Fill fuel tank (3/4 – 7/8 full) and add a stabilizer/conditioner such as “STA-BIL” to the 
gasoline. 

• 

Prepare engine in accordance with the engine manufacturer’s recommendations found in 
your engine manual. 

• 

Treat metal parts with a rust inhibiter.
