• Activate them as indicated above and attempt to put out the
fire. Remain alert to the fact that a fire near or in the fuel tank

CLEATS
Models
All
Purpose
Cleats are an important feature of MasterCraft boats. The
cleats allow boaters to tie-up to docks with ease and confidence.
Location
Cleat locations vary by model. (See Guide to Individual Models in
this Owner’s Manual to determine the locations for your model).
Cleats will be on top deck sides of the bow, and aft near the
transom. Some larger models also have mid-ship cleats.
Operation
Use marine-grade lines to loop over the cleat and tie up to the
dock, allowing some slack in the rope. If there is any motion in
the body of water, MasterCraft recommends also purchasing
“fenders” from an aftermarket supplier to provide a cushion
between the boat and the dock. Without a cushion, the boat’s
finished gel coat and graphics can be damaged. Such damage is
not covered under warranty.
The boat should be tied to docks with marine-grade lines ONLY to
the cleats, allowing some slack. Never tie-up the boat to the tower,
mirror, seats or any other part of the boat. If the ability exists to tie
up to all cleats on the side nearest to the dock, operators should
do so. MasterCraft also recommends using fenders to cushion
the side of the boat in the event of water motion. Otherwise, the
boat gel coat and graphics may be damaged. Such damage is not
covered under the warranty.
