Pre-Voyage Inspections
Hull Check: Inspect the fiberglass surface for cracks, delamination, or impact marks, focusing on areas below the waterline and seams.
System Tests: Verify navigation equipment, bilge pumps, firefighting systems, and life-saving gear (life jackets, life rafts) are operational.
Navigation Precautions
Avoid Collisions: Steer clear of reefs, ice, or hard objects to prevent hull fractures.
Weight Distribution: Strictly adhere to passenger capacity limits and ensure balanced seating to avoid tilting or instability.
Storm Response: Reduce speed in rough seas, maintain a bow-to-wave direction, and minimize stress on the hull.
Emergency Procedures
Water Infiltration: Activate bilge pumps immediately, locate leaks, and apply temporary patches (e.g., epoxy resin).
Structural Damage: If large cracks or delamination occur, dock promptly and seek professional repair.
Cleaning and Protection
Freshwater Rinse: Flush the hull and deck after each use to remove salt and oil residues.
UV Protection: Apply fiberglass-specific wax with UV inhibitors to slow resin degradation.
Scratch Repair: Polish minor scratches; grind and refill deep cracks with resin before recoating with gelcoat.
Structural Upkeep
Delamination Check: Tap the hull annually to detect hollow sounds indicating delamination; repair by stripping and reinforcing affected areas.
Seam Reinforcement: Inspect joints between fiberglass and metal components (e.g., railings, engine mounts) and reseal with marine-grade adhesives.
Storage Practices
Dry Ventilation: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture absorption and strength loss.
Support Framework: Use evenly spaced supports to prevent hull deformation under its own weight.
