RAISING THE GROUND TACKLE
- Lock the grab brake.
- Check the chain is properly set on the grab.
- Activate the windlass setting it to the ‘upward’ position.
- Slowly go near the anchor using the engine (do not use the windlass force
to winch up the boat).
- Visually check the fi nal metres until the anchor gets into contact with the
anchor fairlead.
- Check the position of the anchor on the stem fi tting.
Rinse the windlass and the ground tackle with fresh water each time you
come back.
For the maintenance of the windlass, please refer to its instruction guide.
For winter storage, release the windlass brake and make sure the grab turns
freely.
The boat may be fi tted with an optional hydraulic gangway.
After the domestic electrical system is switched on, the gangway can work.
The gangway control is located in the cockpit aft port side.
A remote control is also available on board the boat.
If it does not work, check its circuit breaker located in the locker of the star-
board companion ladder.
If all else fails, it is possible to retract the gangway using the lever on its hy-
draulic pump (access through the aft cockpit locker or crew cabin, port side).
The gangway can also be used as a crane in order to lift a tender up to the
transom or to take it down to the water from the transom.
For the use and maintenance of the hydraulic gangway, please refer to its
instruction guide.
