CAUTION! The trailer should be slightly front-heavy. Make sure
that the boat is firmly attached to the trailer and its
weight is uniformly distributed over the supports. A
jolting boat will keep hitting individual supports and
the hull may be damaged in the process.

6.1 Measures before winter docking
If subzero temperatures are to be expected, drain the cooling
water from the engine as described in the engine manual. Lift your
Silver boat out of water well before the lake or sea freezes. Your
boat is not designed for use in ice or for in-water storage in winter.
Before lifting the boat on land, it is advisable to carry out the
following operations:
− Wash the hull.
− Drain all bilge water from the boat and remove equipment that is
The trailer keel supports should carry most of the weight of the
boat. Adjust the side supports to ensure that the boat is not jolt-
ed from side to side. Check once more that the trailer is securely
hitched to the towing hook.
When you reach your destination, clean the boat. Thoroughly rinse
any mud and salt that has accumulated on the boat. Take extra care
to rinse the aluminium sides to prevent salt from leaving perma-
nent marks on the surface.
