2023 OWNER’S MANUAL

Periodic cleaning is the best way to keep your boat looking like
new. Regular washing and waxing keep dirt and build-up from
deteriorating the finish. If you keep your boat in showroom-new
condition, then your personal satisfaction will be higher and the
resale value of your boat will be greater.
The boat is made of fiberglass-reinforced plastic resin material
that is easy to clean and care for. Several layers of resin material
are chemically bonded together to form the hull. The smooth
outside surface of the hull is a layer of gel coat resin. The gel coat
is a solid color that is only a few millimeters thick.
Beneath the gel coat surface is a series of layers of chemical resin,
fiberglass mat and woven roving. It is these layers that give the
boat its strength and maintain the hull shape. The boat bottom
also uses special coremat material for its strength-to-weight and
superior marine performance.
Even though MasterCraft has carefully crafted boats from
resilient materials, it is still the responsibility of the boat owner
to perform regular and routine cleaning maintenance to ensure
that the boat exterior, interior and components retain both their
appearance and strength.
HULL
When washing the boat, use a mild detergent, such as Dawn or
Ivory dish soap, or similar commercially-produced detergent, and
warm water solution. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners, solvents,
ammonia or chlorine, as these will damage the gel coat surface.
Under extreme conditions, special cleaners may be used
to remove marine growth from the hull. (See an authorized
MasterCraft service department for further instructions.)
