Maintenance Intervals
Maintenance intervals and the corresponding tasks to be performed, as shown in this schedule, are based on an average
boating application and environment. However, individual operating habits and personal maintenance preferences can have an
impact on the suggested intervals. Therefore, it is important that the boat owner and the servicing dealer discuss the
maintenance schedule and develop appropriate maintenance intervals to coincide with individual operating habits, the
environment, and maintenance requirements.
