Additional loading
The Directive requires that the maximum additional loading is recommended

recorded on the builder's plate. For the SALONA 37 the maximum additional
load is 1,200 kg. The stability of the yacht is designed for this load.
1.1.9 Fixing points for cranes, resting points for slipping and
transport
Craning
In many ports yachts are launched or put ashore with cranes and hoisting
gear. The webbings must be placed so that the stability of the hull and the
stability by weights is paid attention to. Correct position of the webbings is
marked with stickers next to the toe-rail.
NOTICE
TH W BBING WILL B PLAC D IN TH
AR A OF TH SAIL DRIV .
Slipping
If the yacht is slipped with a conventional marine railway, it may stand on its
keel. At this moment the yacht is in an unstable position and has to be
protected against tipping over. Therefore it is recommended to slip the yacht
with a suitable railway cradle.
If the yacht is put ashore on its keel for a longer period, bow and stern
sections should be supported effectively to prevent the overhangs to subside
and to relieve the strain on the construction.
The position of suitable resting points can also be taken from stickers placed
onext to to-rail. It is strongly recommended to use a transport and store
trestle for a longer storage.
Transport
The guidelines for transport are generally the same as for slipping and storage.
