DECK FITTINGS
The fittings on the deck of your LAGOON 46 were selected according
to quality criteria.
To keep them to their best look, a regular maintenance is necessary.
- Rinse the equipments with fresh water, particularly the stainless
steel parts.
- Lubricate the different blocks, sheaves, turnbuckles, winches, tracks
and travellers.
- Clean and polish the stainless steel parts with a chrome and stainless
steel polish in case of oxidation.
l
PULPITS
Regularly rinse the stainless steel parts with fresh water.
l
LIFELINES
Inspect the metal lifelines for ‘hairy wires’.
Check for corrosion, in particular on the connections.
l
OUTSIDE WOODWORK
Regularly rinse and brush the outside woodwork with fresh water.
There are teak cleaners and brighteners on sale.
The use of a pressure washer is not advisable on teak.
n 2.1 Construction
The LAGOON 46 is constructed following the infusion process of a
polyester resin and a high quality anti-osmotic resin on a core of balsa
and fibreglass layers.
n 2.2 Careening
A periodical careening of your boat will keep her original performances
and avoid any adhesion of marine vegetation.
The type of the water where you boat sails determines how to
choose the antifouling paint as well as how often to carry out these
careenings.
Please contact a professional for advice.
WARNING
Do not let the hull’s large plexiglass windscreens
come into contact with fenders or hawsers: surface
damage would be irreparable.
