Before Sailing

Install the drain plugs – do not overtighten, hand tight is sufficient. Overtightening may cause the drain plug flange to distort and cause leakage.

Tension the rig. This can be accomplished by having your assistant hang from the trapeze or you can use mainsheet tension on one side at a time so that you can adjust the shroud position in the side stay adjusters.

3	Fit the daggerboards into the daggerboards wells. The dag-
	gerboard roller shock cord should be tight enough to prevent

the daggerboard from slipping down.

4	It is recommended that beach rollers be used
	to move your Hobie. This will save your back
	and the bottom of the boat.
5	Always wash traveller with fresh water after
	use in salty water.

Always wear your Hobie buoyancy vest, look out

for overhead power lines and

HAVE LOTS OF FUN!
