Product Operate Guide

Follow these steps to safely sail this easy to single hand sail catamaran. Before departure, inspect the lightweight aluminum catamaran hull for cracks around weld seams. Check that the twin rudder offshore sailboat steering moves freely. For stable low draft cruising platform operation, be aware of tide levels when anchoring shallow. Raise the mainsail and unfurl the jib. As a performance cruising catamaran, trim sails for 10-12 degrees of heel – flatter than monohulls. When motoring, the 40ft bluewater sailing cat cruises at 7 knots. The corrosion resistant marine alloy requires no painting, but rinse with fresh water after saltwater use. Every six months, inspect anodes and through-hull fittings. The spacious cockpit and saloon should be ventilated to prevent condensation. Always file a float plan for offshore passages. Annual haul-out for hull inspection and antifouling application is recommended.
