(“radar”) position. Instead, use the trailering brackets to secure the
top or remove it.
< Store the table and any seat pads that are not hinged and attached.
< On two-tube pontoons with large motors, consider using a transom
saver to support the motor. An unsupported motor may cause tube or
deck damage and could void your warranty.
< Do not trailer with the mooring cover installed. Doing so may result
in damage to the cover and your boat. Should the mooring cover
detach from the boat completely, it may be hazardous to other
vehicles.
< If you have a sport arch, do not lower it before trailering. Make sure
the arch is fully raised with the star knobs securely installed.
Wet trailer brakes may significantly increase
stopping distances.
The height of your trailered boat can be a safety
factor during transport. Keep this in mind while
considering your travel route.
Storing Your Boat
When preparing your boat for storage, follow these basic storage
recommendations:
< Drain any freshwater systems to prevent freezing and damage to
tanks and lines.
< Fill the permanent fuel tank to minimize condensation. Use a gas
stabilizer, making sure to follow the label directions on the stabilizer
and in your engine manual.
< Remove water from the livewell, motor pod, in-tube storage
chamber, and storage areas.
< Lubricate the steering mechanism, shifter, and shift cables. For more
information, review your engine owner’s manual.
