Mooring
The RS Feva can be moored on a buoy or on a pontoon for short periods. When
mooring on a buoy, ensure that the mooring line is securely fastened to the forward
lifting handle (Feva S), or around the tack bar (Feva XL).
When mooring along side a pontoon, a mooring line can be attached to either the
forward lifting handle (Feva S) or round the tack bar (Feva XL), and around the aft
end of the rear toestraps. Always remember to use some padding between your RS
Feva and the object that you are mooring against!
Trailing and Transporting Your RS Feva
The RS Feva can be trailed behind the majority of cars. When trailing your RS Feva,
you should only use an approved trolley and road base. Care must be taken when
tying the boat to its trailer because too much or too little tension could result in
damage. We recommend the following procedure for safe trailing:
• Ensure that the boat is located correctly on the trolley, with the bow securely
in the bow snubber of the trolley.
• Ensure that the trolley is properly located on the road base, and that the
retaining pin is fitted.
• Tie the boat down to the road base, at the bow, and across the middle. You
only need to apply sufficient tension to hold the boat in contact with the trolley
supports. Use padding material where any straps touch the deck.
The RS Feva is designed to be transported easily on the roof of most cars. If you are
planning to transport your RS Feva on the roof of your car, we recommend the use
of the RS Feva Folding Launching Trolley, as the combination of the hull and the RS
Feva Standard Launching Trolley may exceed the manufacturer’s weight limit for the
car.
