XV. HANDLING, TRANSPORTATION, DRY SETTING
When haulage the boat, make sure that the belts are correctly positioned and that they are not worn
on the propeller, the sail-drive or a fragile probe.
The gantry cranes will be wide enough or equipped with spacers so as not to exert on the strake of
excessive transverse efforts.
Avoid the slings being worn on the dies. When transporting or drying, it is appropriate that the keel
is in support of its sole and bears the bulk of the weight of the boat.
The pads must be positioned at the level of structural elements and exert only the pressure
necessary to the proper balance of the boat.
Take advantage of the water outlets to inspect the propeller, rudder, hulls and probes.
XVI. MOORING, ANCHORING AND TOWING
Be sure to regularly inspect the different anchor points of the boat. If any of them have visible signs
of deterioration, they must be replaced.
ATTENTION ! (ISO 15084:2003)
• Anchorage points for Anchorage and/or towing are the 2 front cleats
• Always tow or be towed at low speed. Never exceed the speed limit of a travel hull when
towing.
• A towing cable must always be moored so that it can be dumped under load.
