EXTERIOR EQUIPMENT

7.1 Deck

RAILS AND DECK HARDWARE

The rail system and hardware fittings have been selected and installed to perform specific functions. Fenders

or mooring lines should be secured to the cleats and not to rails or stanchions. Be sure a clear lead exists when

running dock lines or anchor lines. A line inadvertently run around a stanchion or over the rail could cause

damage.

The bow navigation light, the anchor line chocks and the deck cleats are flush mount and must be raised prior

to use. The bow navigation light must be in the raised position prior to the

use of the navigation lights.

ALL FITTINGS MUST BE PERIODICALLY INSPECTED FOR LOOSE FIT OR WEAR AND

DAMAGE. ANY PROBLEMS SHOULD BE CORRECTED IMMEDIATELY.

PURSUIT BOATS ARE NOT EQUIPPED WITH HARDWARE DESIGNED FOR TOWING PUR-

POSES. THE MOORING CLEATS ARE NOT TO BE USED FOR TOWING ANOTHER VES-

SEL OR HAVING THIS BOAT TOWED.

ANCHOR/ROPE LOCKER

The anchor locker is in the bow of the boat and accessed through a hatch in

the deck. The anchor line is always stored in the locker. If an anchor is stored

in the anchor locker, it must be properly secured to prevent it from bouncing

in the locker and causing damage to the hull or anchor locker.

The anchor locker is drained by a thru-hull fitting in the hull side near the

bottom of the locker. It is very important to check the drain frequently to

make sure it is clean and free flowing.
