lDECK FITTINGS
The fittings on the deck of your LAGOON 42 were selected according
to quality criteria.
To keep them to their best look, a regular maintenance is necessary.
- Rinse the equipments with fresh water, particularly the stainless
steel parts.
- Lubricate the different blocks, sheaves, turnbuckles, winches, tracks
and travellers.
- Clean and polish the stainless steel parts with a chrome and stainless
steel polish in case of oxidation.
lPULPITS
Regularly rinse the stainless steel parts with fresh water.
lLIFELINES
Inspect the metal lifelines for ‘hairy wires’.
Check for corrosion, in particular on the connections.
lOUTSIDE WOODWORK
Regularly rinse and brush the outside woodwork with fresh water.
There are teak cleaners and brighteners on sale.
The use of a pressure washer is not advisable on teak.
n2.1 Construction
The LAGOON 42 is constructed following the infusion process of a
polyester resin and a high quality anti-osmotic resin on a core of balsa
and fibreglass layers.
The hull bottoms and keels are made of monolithic laminates by
infusion.
n2.2 Careening - Dry harbour
A periodical careening of your boat will keep her original performances
and avoid any adhesion of marine vegetation.
The type of the water where you boat sails determines how to choose
the antifouling paint as well as how often to carry out these caree-
nings.
Please contact a professional for advice.
LAGOON 42
WARNING
When in dry harbour, it is vital to secure the boat’s
base by placing a prop under each hull as shown in
the following diagram.
