Chapter 10:

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

10.1 Exterior Hull and Deck

Hull Cleaning-Below The Water Line

When the boat is removed from the water, clean the outer bottom surface immediately. Algae,

grass, dirt and other marine growth is easier to remove while the hull is still wet. Use a pressure

cleaner or a hard bristle brush to clean the surface.

Bottom Painting

If the boat is to be left in saltwater for extended periods, the hull must be protected from marine

growth by antifouling paint. Because of variations in water temperature, marine growth, and

pollution in different regions, your dealer and/or a qualified boat yard in your area should be

consulted when deciding what bottom paint system to apply to your hull. This is extremely

important as pollution and marine growth can damage fiberglass hulls.

SANDING OR SANDBLASTING THE HULL BOTTOM WILL DAMAGE THE FIBERGLASS.

USE ONLY STANDARD ANTIFOULING PAINTS AND FIBERGLASS WAX REMOVERS AND

PRIMERS RECOMMENDED BY THE ANTIFOULING PAINT MANUFACTURER WHEN PRE-

PARING THE HULL FOR BOTTOM PAINT. SANDING OR SANDBLASTING AND THE USE

OF A COATING OTHER THAN STANDARD ANTIFOULING PAINT OR EPOXY BARRIER

COATINGS ARE NOT RECOMMENDED AND WILL VOID THE FIVE YEAR HULL BLISTER

WARRANTY.

Do not allow the hull antifouling paint to contact the outboard motor. Most antifouling paints designed

for hull bottoms contain copper and can cause severe galvanic damage to the motor. Always leave a

1/2" barrier between the hull bottom paint and outboard motor.

Most bottom paints require some maintenance. Proper maintenance is especially important when

the boat is in saltwater and not used for extended periods or after dry storage. If the hull bottom

has been painted with antifouling paint, contact your dealer or the paint manufacturer for the

recommended maintenance procedures.

Sacrificial Anodes

Sacrificial anodes are installed on the outboard motor and should be installed on the trim tabs if the

boat is to be left in the water. Contact your dealer for the proper size and type of anodes to be used

and the specific installation procedure. Anodes should be checked monthly and changed when

they are 75% of their original size. When replacing the anodes, make sure the contact surfaces are

clean, shinny metal and free of paint and corrosion. Never paint over the anode.
