The outer canvas surfaces can be cleaned with a soft scrub brush and either automotive convertibletop cleaners or household cleaners suitable for use on acrylic surfaces. The underside of the canvasmay be periodically sprayed with a spray disinfectant to prevent the growth of mildew.

Do not store or dock your boat under trees. Tree sap is very corrosive to canvas and can also beharmful to gelcoat and vinyl interiors.

Adjust top bows to eliminate pockets in which rain water can accumulate. The weight of thisaccumulated water can collapse the top or bag the canvas.

Zippers and snaps should never be forced. Occasionally lubricate with silicone/Teflon grease.

When trailering, dismantle, roll or fold and securely stow all canvas to prevent damage. Monterey

recommends purchasing a transportation cover to keep your boat clean on the road. Your MontereyDealer will assist you in finding a suitable cover (not available from Monterey Boats).

Roll clear plastic (isinglass) curtains (do not fold) and store in a clean, dry place.

Do not allow petroleum products or bug sprays to come in contact with canvas.

NOTICEYour Monterey boat is basically an open vehicle. Therefore, in spite of well-designed andwell-fitting canvas enclosures, your boat is not waterproof. We have made every effort todesign these enclosures to conform with the boat, but a certain amount of leakage mayoccur, especially at the seam lines. After cleaning with soap and water, allow seams tothoroughly dry. A sealant can be applied on the seams to somewhat close the needle holesaccording to the manufacturers instructions.

Acrylic and Plexiglass

Acrylics and plexiglass have properties that make them ideal for the marine environment. Componentssuch as cabin doors and deck hatches need special care to prevent scratches and other damage. Thefollowing guidelines will help keep acrylics and plexiglass looking good for years to come.

DOS

Wash your hatches, windshield connector, side curtains and other clear plastic pieces, as well asother acrylic components on your boat with a mild soap and plenty of lukewarm water.

Use a clean, soft cloth, applying only light pressure.

Rinse with clear water and dry by blotting with a damp cloth or chamois.

Grease, oil or tar may be removed with a good grade of hexane, aliphatic naphtha or kerosene.These solvents may be obtained at a paint or hardware store and should be used in accordance withthe manufacturers recommendations.

To maintain a high-luster finish on your acrylics, we recommend that after properly cleaning, applyMeguiars Mirror Glaze #10 with a soft towel. Note: If slight scratches appear on acrylics, useMeguiars Mirror Glaze #17.

NOTICEClear plastic (isinglass) is subject to ultraviolet (sunlight) degradation over time. It may turnyellow-brown (a burnt appearance) and get brittle. Two things that can accelerate thisdegradation are:

1. Direct contact with aluminum or stainless steel frames. UseStandoffs.

2. In salt water areas, dried salt crystals on the plastic willamplify sunlight. Wash after each use and/or windy day.

M-4


8/170

DONTS

Do not subject acrylic material to high temperatures when polishing.

Do not use glass cleaning sprays, scouring compounds, or solvents like acetone, gasoline, benzene,carbon tetrachloride or lacquer thinner.

Do not use masking tapes, duct tapes or packing tapes on your acrylic materials.

Do not drill holes in your acrylic materials without proper drill bits (special bits are used in acrylicmaterial to avoid damage).

Stainless Steel

Marine grade stainless steel components such as hardware, cleats, eyes, and rails offer superior corrosionresistance. When properly maintained, stainless steel will not rust or stain, even in harsh saltwaterenvironments. However, if not maintained, stainless steel can rust, discolor, or even corrode. The followingguidelines will help keep stainless steel looking good for years to come.

DOS

Clean stainless steel frequently (daily in salt or polluted environments) with mild soap and plenty ofwater. Any cleaner safe for use on glass is usually safe for stainless.

Remove rust spots (especially around welds) immediately with a brass, silver, or chrome cleaner.Irreversible pitting will develop under rust allowed to remain on stainless for any period of time.

Remove rust stains on gelcoat. See dealer for recommended product.

Protect stainless with waxes or polishes suitable for marine use.

DONTS

Do not use coarse abrasives like sandpaper or steel wool which may actually cause rusting

Do not use acids or bleaches which may etch the naturally occurring protective coating.

Do not leave stainless steel in contact with iron, steel, or other metals which cause contaminationleading to rust or corrosion.

Gel Coats

The smooth, beautiful skin of the fiberglass hull is made of gel coat. Gel coat is a strong but thin (thoughthicker than automotive paint) layer of colored resin. The best way to keep the gel coat skin on your boat in

top condition is through regular maintenance. The following guidelines will help keep gel coat looking goodfor years to come.

DOS

Keep the gel coat surface out of direct sunlight or covered when not in use.

Wash gel coat frequently (daily in salt or polluted environments) with mild detergent and plenty of freshwater. Remove any stains quickly. Gelcoat is microscopically porous, so long term staining maybecome permanent.

Regularly (monthly in salt or polluted environments) wax gel coat surfaces with marine grade waxrecommended for fiberglass finishes.

M-5


9/170

DONTS

Do not use plastic or other nonporous (non-breathable) materials to cover gel coat surfaces. Trappedmoisture from condensation can cause gel coat damage. Shrink wrap storage covers must beproperly ventilated, including hullsides.

Do not use abrasives, bleaches, ammonias, acids or harsh detergents. See your dealer for specialmarine formulations.

NEVER wax a gel coat surface in direct sunlight.

Do not attempt to remove stains and scratches. Chalking, stains, and minor scratches can beremoved in most cases with careful rubbing and polishing with appropriate chemicals and is best

done by a professional see your dealer.

Apply No-Slip tape or step plates on surfaces which are walked on. Waxed gel coatsurfaces are extremely slippery, especially when wet.

FIRE EXTINGUISHING SYSTEM

Some stern drive boats are equipped with an optional Automatic Fire ExtinguishingSystem for an engine compartment fire. The system is automatically actuated whentemperatures reach or exceed a preset limit.

When actuation occurs, a loud popping sound may be heard followed by rushing airsound. When a discharge occurs, immediately shut down all electrical and

mechanical systems including engine, and powered ventilation (Blowers).

Do not open the engine hatch at this time! This feeds oxygen to the fire andflashback can occur. Allow the extinguishing agent to soak the compartment for atleast fifteen (15) minutes, and wait for hot metals and fuels to cool before inspectingfor cause or damage.

Fire extinguishing agents and fire by-product fumes are toxic; do not breath fire fumes.Accidental discharge can be dangerous and may cause serious injury. Do not attempt toservice the system unless qualified to do so.

If fire is still active after system dishcarges: All occupants should immediately put on PFDs(Personal Flotation Devices) and get off the boat.

Extinguishing agent cylinders must be accurately weighed periodically according to themanufacturers specifications to ensure that they are adequately charged.

SPECIAL GAS PRECAUTIONS

Holding tank systems on boats produce odorless Methane gas which is extremely lethal inenclosed spaces. Follow these precautions when working on your boat's holding tanksystem to prevent injury: Before work, open all doors and hatches wide, and rig a good fan to disperse gas. During work, have another person frequently check on you. Before and during work, DONT SMOKE.

EXTREME HAZARD Carbon monoxide gas (CO) is colorless, odorless and extremelydangerous. All engines and fuel burning appliances produce CO as exhaust. Direct andprolonged exposure to CO will cause BRAIN DAMAGE or DEATH. Signs of exposure toCO include nausea, dizziness and drowsiness. Sources of CO include:

Operating at slow speed or while deadin the water.

Operating with high bow angle.

GENERATOR SET

The following procedure summarizes the operation of, and safety precautions for, the optional marinegenerator available for your boat. Before operating your generator, read the owner's manual whichaccompanies your generator.

Prestart1. Check that the air cleaner is clean and properly installed.

2. Check the battery connections and electrolyte level (if battery has filler caps).

3. Check that the fuel tanks are full and that the fuel system is primed for operation.

4. Check that the oil level is at or near FULL mark.

Hot coolant can cause severe burns. Do not remove the pressure cap when engine is hot.

5. Check that coolant level in coolant recovery tank is between the MIN and MAX marks. Periodicallyremove the pressure cap and check on the fluid level when engine is cool. Do not rely solely onlevel in the coolant recovery tank.

6. For initial startup only, prime the sea water pump by closing seacock, removing hose from water filteroutlet, filling hose and pump with clean water, replacing hose, and opening seacock.

Failure to have seacock open when generator is running, will result in serious enginedamage due to overheating.

7. Check that generator seacock is open.

8. Check that marine ship-to-shore transfer switch is in the proper position and that all breakers are inthe OFF position.

9. Open the manual fuel shut-off valve (if equipped).

Starting

The blowers must be operated for a minimum of four minutes before each time the engineis started. Failure to operate the blower can cause an explosion.

1. Operate the ventilation blowers for a minimum of four minutes and check the engine compartment forgasoline vapors.

Do not crank the engine for more that seven seconds at a time. Allow a five second cooldown period between cranking attempts if the engine fails to start. If the engine fails tostart after three attempts , contact an authorized dealer for repairs. Failure to do so mayresult in serious damage to the starter motor.

2. Press the controller master switch, or the remote start switch on the AC control panel, to the STARTposition and release switch when the unit has started.

Allow at least 30 seconds after shutdown before starting a hot engine. If the engine fails tostart after the first attempt, close the seacock before continuing. This will prevent sea waterfrom entering the engine cylinders through the exhaust valve. Once started, reopen seacock.

After generator has started, check to be sure that water is flowing overboard from thegenerator discharge. If there is no discharge, stop and check for leaks or obstructions.

Stopping1. Run generator set at no load for five minutes to allow engine to cool down.

2. Switch the controller master switch, or the remote start switch on the AC control panel, to the STOPposition and wait until the generator set comes to a complete stop.

Circuit ProtectionThe AC circuit breaker on the generator controller will trip if a fault is detected in the AC output circuit. Incase of fault, refer to your generator owner's manual for troubleshooting information.

Only replace fuses with fuses of the same type (ABC or #AB (ceramic)) and ampere rating.Do not use clear glass fuses.

Engine Shutdown SwitchesThe generator set engine is protected by three shutdown switches which automatically reset after theengine cools down; or in the case of low oil pressure, if the problem is corrected.

Low Oil Pressure (LOP) will shut down unit if pressure is 20 psi or less.

High Water Temperature (HWT) will shut down unit if temperature is greater than 248-266.

High Exhaust Temperature (HET) will shut down unit if temperature is greater than

215 5.

BOATING REGULATIONSThe U.S. Coast Guard is the authority of the waterways; they are there tohelp the boating public. State boating regulations are enforced by localauthorities. You are subject to marine traffic laws and Rules of the Road

for both federal and state waterways; you must stop if signaled to do so byenforcement officers, and permit to be boarded if asked.

There are many pamphlets, prepared by the Coast Guard, available to you.These pamphlets explain Rules of the Road, signal lights, buoys, safety,international and inland regulations and much more than is presented inthis manual. For more information contact your local U.S. Coast Guard Unitor call the Coast Guard Boating Safety Hotline at 1-800-368-5647.

BOAT SAFETY LABELSYour boat is affixed with various safety labels at the time of manufacture.These labels appear at specific locations on the craft where safety is of

particular concern. Safety labels must remain legible. If you suspect a labelis missing or one becomes damaged, contact your dealer for immediatereplacement.

BOATER RESPONSIBILITIESRegistrationThe U.S. Coast Guard requires that all power boats operated on the navi-gable waters of the United States must be registered in the state of mainuse; also, many States require registration in that state whenever boatingon waters within their state boundary. Always contact your state boatingauthorities (and neighboring states) for registration information on boats

and trailers. Your dealer can supply you with the appropriate forms.EducationThis manual is not intended to provide complete training on all aspects ofboat operation. We strongly recommend that all operators of this boat seekadditional training on boat handling and safety. Some states require youths16 years of age and younger to complete a boating safety course beforeoperating any watercraft. Many others require operators under the age of18 to be licensed in small boat operation.

The following is a listing of some of the agencies and organizations thatoffer safety training or information. To find boating safety courses in yourarea, call your states local boating agency or the Coast Guard boatingsafety Courseline at 1-800-336-2628 (1-800-245-2628 in Virginia).

InsuranceYou must get insurance before operating your new boat. Loss by fire, theftor other causes, and liability protection against accidents is a must forresponsible boaters. The boat owner is legally responsible for any damageor injury caused when he, or someone else operating the boat, is involvedin an accident. Many states have laws detailing minimum insurance needs.Your insurance agent and your dealer can supply you with more informa-tion.

REQUIRED SAFETY EQUIPMENTYour boat has been equipped at the factory with most federally requiredClass 1 [4.8 m (16 ft.) to less than 7.9 m (26 ft.)] safety equipment. As theowner, it is your responsibility to obtain other mandatory safety equip-

ment not provided by the boat manufacturer, and to ensure all equip-ment is kept in good, serviceable condition.

NOTICE

Many state equipment requirements go beyond Coast Guardrequirements. Contact your state boating office for furtherinformation.

Equipment requirements for coastal and inland waters differ.Check with local authorities or the Coast Guard for furtherinformation about coastal water requirements.

Personal Floatation Devices

Federal law also requires at least one Type I, II, III or V Personal FloatationDevice (PFD) for each person on board or being towed, and at least oneType IV throwable PFD in the boat.

PFDs are intended to help save lives. Therefore, you and your passengersshould wear a PFD whenever boating. It is especially important that chil-dren and non-swimmers wear a PFD at all times. Make certain all passen-gers know how to put on and properly adjust their PFDs. Also, selecting theproper type PFD for your kind of outing helps ensure your time on the watercan be the safest possible. There are four types of PFDs to wear and onetype used for throwing in emergency situations.

Type I: Most buoyant PFD and effective on all waters, especiallyopen, rough water.

Type II: Good for calm water near shore on most inland waterswhere quick rescue is likely.

Type III: Good for most inland water applications where quick res-cue is likely. Come in various styles and some are designedfor watersport activities.

Type IV: Intended for heavy traffic inland waters where help isalways available. Designed to be thrown to a person in thewater and should never be worn.

Type V: Inflatable design for special use activities and may be usedinstead of a Type I, II, or III PFD if used in accordance withthe approval conditions on the label andifwornwhentheboatisunderway. Some Type V PFDs provide increasedprotection against hypothermia.

NOTICE If a Type V PFD is to be counted toward the minimum

carriage requirements, it must be worn.

Special PFDs are available for skiing and other water-sports. These PFDs are constructed with materialssuitable for high impact falls.

Keep the following PFD points in mind:

Set an example and wear your PFD. Require your passengers towear them also.

Make sure the PFD fits properly; this is especially important forchildren and non-swimmers.

At the beginning of each season, check PFDs for damage andtest for proper flotation.

Fire Extinguisher

U.S. Coast Guard approved fire extinguishers are generally requiredon all Class I-III boats. Extinguishers should be mounted in readilyaccessible areas away from the engine compartment and alcoholstove (if equipped). All passengers should know the location and

operating procedure of each extinguisher.Any marine fire extinguisher must be classified to extinguish type Bfires (gasoline, oil, or grease).The size and number of required fire extinguishers depend on thesize of your boat. Check pressure gauge regularly for proper pres-sure; have extinguisher filled if necessary.

Visual Distress Signals

Federal law alsorequires boats 4.8m (16 ft.) andlonger to carry

day and nightvisual distresssignals whenoperating oncoastal waters,the Great Lakes,territorial seas orthose watersdirectly connectedto them, up to apoint where thebody of water isless than two

miles wide. Carryseveral types ofsignaling devicesto handle a vari-ety of conditions.

Pyrotechnic signaling devices can cause injury and prop-erty damage if not handled properly. Follow manufactur-

ers directions. Stow devices so they are inaccessible tochildren.

NOTICE Some pyrotechnics are restricted from use on certain bodies

of water, so always check with local authorities.

All signaling devices must be in serviceable condition, readilyaccessible, and in compliance with Coast Guard require-ments.

EMERGENCIESBe prepared to deal with emergencies before they happen. Try to for-mulate a plan for each type in advance so that decisions can be madequickly and without hesitation. Precious moments lost can mean the

difference between losing and saving a life.

Reporting AccidentsThe U.S. Coast Guard requires the owner or operator of a boat involvedin an accident to report the incident to the proper marine law enforce-ment agency for the State in which the accident occurred. Immediatenotification to the nearest State boating authority is required if a persondies or disappears as a result of a recreational boating accident. If a per-son dies or injuries requiring more than first aid are involved, a formalreport must be filed within 48 hours of the accident. A formal report mustbe filed within 10 days for accidents exceeding $500 in property damageor complete loss of boat.

Giving AssistanceIf you see a distress signal or suspect a boat is in trouble, you mustassume it is a real emergency and render assistance immediately. Bylaw, the operator in charge of the craft is obligated to provide assis-tance to any individual in danger if such assistance can be providedsafely. Failure to render assistance can result in a fine and/or imprison-ment.The 1971 Boating Safety Act grants protection to a Good Samaritanboater providing good faith assistance, and absolves a boater from anycivil liability arising from such assistance.

FiresMost fires are the result of gasoline and oil accumulating in the bilgefrom careless fueling practices. Use the fire extinguisher at the baseof the flames using a sweeping motion. Prudent and accurate use ofthe available chemicals should contain all but the worst fires. Verifythat the fire has been extinguished. If so, check damage and getassistance immediately. If not, get out and swim at least 23 meters(25 yards) upwind from the boat and use the visual distress signals toget assistance.On board fires involving the fuel system usually result in either anexplosion that completely destroys the boat, or the boat burning to thewaterline and self extinguishing. Deciding on abandoning the boat orstaying to fight the fire is difficult and depends on many factors. Try toformulate a fire plan in advance to make that decision quickly and with-out hesitation.

Capsizing/SwampingA boat may capsize or swamp when least expected. Like fires, try toformulate a plan in advance on what to do if it should happen. Keep inmind the following guidelines:

Try to turn the engine OFF to prevent damage.

If others were on board, try to locate them, make sure theyre con-scious and that they can swim.

Stay with the boat, it will float! Climb up on the hull and try toget assistance.

Dont try to swim to shore. Its usually further than it looks.

HAZARDOUS CONDITIONSEvery waterway poses hazards that you should avoid; shallow water,tree stumps, sand bars, etc. Ask local boaters for information and con-

sult a marine chart when boating on unfamiliar waters. As the operatorof the boat, you should try to avoid all hazards, known and unknown.The following information does not contain all possible water hazards.

WeatherGetting caught in severe weather is hazardous. Check with localweather stations, the U.S. Coast Guard, or Weather service broadcasts(162.55 or 162.40 Megahertz) for the latest conditions. It is recom-mended to check the weather not only before but periodically while youare boating.

Storms Take common sense precautions if you are forced to operateyour boat in stormy conditions:

Wear PFDs

Stow gear below and lash equipment on deck.

Reduce speed and head for place of refuge you can reach mosteasily.

If you lose power, keep boat headed into the waves by rigging asea anchor off the bow.

Fog It is best to avoid operating your boat in foggy weather. Whenfog sets in take bearings and log courses and speeds. You
