Care and maintenance
Especially with the first sailing please take sometimes the boat out of the water and check
that all screws have not become loose, not interlocked ropes, no knots solved and no water is
in the boat. Small amounts of moisture inside the boat, especially when used in the rain or
strong wind and waves are normal and can be easily recorded and eliminated with a paper
towel or a sponge.
Immediately after sailing please take the tension out of your sails. For this purpose you
should relax the backstay and relieve the luff at main sail. If after that there is still tension on
the luff of the jib, please be sure to relieve this too. If you have driven with strong bent mast
and little twist in bulk, you may need to twist after releasing the backstay and the press-down
device to relieve the leech of the mainsail.
Open the cabin cover, remove the battery and any wet cloth or sponge.
Wipe the boat with a soft cloth and put it to dry on the boat stand.
For a longer break, you can also dismantle the keel and remove the water from the keel and
the mast support.
Check from time to time, the ropes for damage. Damaged ropes should be replaced for safe-
ty‘s sake.
Approximately twice a year you should lubricate the rudder shaft and the thread of the press-
down.
After sailing
Now all that remains is
