  • Page 58: Antifouling Paint

    Yacht Manual DEHLER 32 9.6 Antifouling Paint The part under the waterline of the Dehler 32 can be protected by antifouling paint, since growth and vegetation means more energy consumption just to run the boat. The range of protective paints is large, their effect is wide and therefore the type of paint can be suited to every type of water.

    Yacht Manual DEHLER 32 should be checked. When the rigging is down, you can repair every small bit of damage with very little effort. Rigging check: Wash the entire rigging abundantly with fresh water before winter storage. For winter storage you should examine the standing and running rigging, the halyard blocks and shroud bottle screws.

  • Page 62: Engine And Propeller

    Yacht Manual DEHLER 32 11.6 Engine and propeller The diesel engine must be made winterpoof. We recommend fitting a long hose on the nozzle of the water pump, see Yanmar manual, preparing an anti-freeze mixture in a bucket and letting the engine draw in this mixture until it comes out at the exhaust. In this way the engine and the exhaust system will be protected from frost and corrosion.

  • Page 63: Hose Clamps
