1. Often on hauling it will be noticed that along the joint between the hull and the keel there is a crack in the filler This is caused by different thermal expansion and contraction in the materials and should cause no problems If the crack opens up when the boat is lifted the keel bolts should be tightened Recommended bolt torque M24 260 Nm M30 510 Nm 1 9 STEERING SYSTEM Steering system drawing appended The rudder stock is made of E glass composite and supported by two roller bearings These bearings should be greased regularly in order to turn easily Page 10 Nautor s SWAN 48 S C R The vertical position of the rudder can be adjusted at the upper end of the stock by adding or removing shims under the axial bearing surface Steering cables should be hand tight The adjusting screws are located at the quadrant Check the cables regularly for wear If there are any broken strands change at the earliest opportunity The steering wheel shaft has roller bearings which should be kept well greased Winch grease or equivalent is recommended The emergency tiller is stowed in the lazarette and should always be kept easily available Practice its installation which could save vital time should it ever be required 1 10 FLOATATION REFERENCE MARKS At bow and stern there are reference marks twelve inches 305 mm above datum water line With the aid of these the exact floatation can be determined Note Floatation is normally h2.
