6.1.3 NORMAL MAINTENANCE
Remember that a well-kept boat has a higher second hand value. Oil and grease can
leave permanent stains. If you need to rub and polish the boat it is important to wax it.
6.2 MAINTENANCE OF THE TEAK DECK
The deck supplier recommends that the boat owner tests and uses those products that
give the best result. The wood must first be well cleaned with soap and water. Do not
use a hard brush. Do not use high pressured water. The wood must be totally dry before
fat/grease/oil is applied. This will give the teak its colour but many boaters prefer the
teak to go grey.
The deck should never be exposed to acid-based detergents. Acid-based detergents
will damage teak seams irreparably.
There are many products on the market and Marex recommends oiling the deck with oil
without chemical additives. To get the best result the teak can be sanded with fine
sandpaper and then oiled.
6.3 MAINTENANCE OF THE ENGINE AND THE DRIVE
INSTRUCTION MANUAL
Read the engine’s user manual!
• Control the oil level on engine and drive often.
• Control the seawater filter every 25 engine hours.
• Ensure that the flow of cooling water is continuous.
• For periodic control and replacements see the engine manual.
• Control the fuel system for visual leakage.

6.4 MAINTENANCE OF THE STEERING SYSTEM
• Control the couplings, hoses, bearings and fastening points.
• Control the fluid level in the steering system frequently. Check the cylinders and
hoses for leakages. Lubricate the joints and couplings with the prescribed
