Preparation for Storage
General
•
Wash the engine compartment with fresh water and re-
move the drain screw in the stern to drain the water. Wipe
up any water left in the compartment.
CAUTION
Use only a mild detergent in water to wash the hull.
Harsh solvents may attack the surface or smear the
colors.
•
Apply a good grade of wax to all exterior hull surfaces.
•
Lightly spray all exposed metal parts with a penetrating
rust inhibitor.
•
Remove the seat, or block the seat up with 10 mm (0.39
in.) spacers to insure adequate ventilation, and prevent
corrosion.
•
Cover the watercraft and store it in a clean, dry place.
