Checklist for new boats
As you can see I have changed the the following to include an
English translation as I have received lots of questions about
the issues I've listed on these pages. With patience and god's
speed I'll will someday finish the other pages too. Many of the
issues below are documented with pictures on this site so look
around and you will be able to link some points with pictures.
The solutions suggested are not what we did in all the cases but
what we should have done. Lack of experience, a hurry to get
home plus a trust in the after sales service back home lead us
to make a mistake and not check everything in Greifswald at the
factory.
On this page I'll collect information about what you as a new
owner should check when you pick up your brand new boat from
Greifswald or from some other part of our huge world. The
information is very much be based on my own experiences but I
hope you as a visitor to this site will assist me with your
suggestions by emailing them to
marco@cdg.nu |

Exteriour
Issue |
Action to check |
Solution |
Boat modell |
Entrance
plexiglass had lot of small scratches |
Inspect all plexi details
from different angles in order to find scratches. |
Ask
skipyard to
polish |
Hanse 370 |
Fluxgate
compass broken |
Calibrate the autopilot by
driving around in a circle if calibration not possible it may be because
of broken fluxgate. If fluxgate works, check that it is not close to
lots of metal.
DO NOT DO THIS
AFTER YOU LEFT GREIFSWALD! |
Ask
shipyard to help.IF
FLUXGATE COMPASS DO NOT WORK YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO USE AUTOPILOT! |
Hanse 370 |
Sprayhood
too close to portside winch |
Chech that you can
rotate winch handle fully around with sprayhood up. |
Talk to shipyard and see
what they can do to solve the problem. |
Hanse 370 |
Cockpit tents fittings
mounted wrong way |
Open cockpit hatches and
check that the fittings will not hit the hatch when you open it fully.
Be careful first time so you will not bend the fitting or crack gelcoat. |
Ask shipyard to turn the
fitting around and add new Sikaflex. |
Hanse 370 |
Cockpit tent zipper broke
at first use |
Unmount cockpit tent and
re-mount it by yourself and check that zipper will not let go. |
Ask shipyard to replace
the zipper to a stronger one. |
Hanse 370 |
Cockpit tent support made
of one single piece of metal pipe |
Check that you can demount
the support in at least 2 pieces so you can stow it easily. |
Ask shipyard to fix. |
|
Anchor chain scraped the
edge of the chain locker. |
Open chain locker and
check that there is a stainless steel rubbing strip on the edge of the
locker where the chain passes |
Ask shipyard to add a
stainless steel rub plate. |
Hanse 370 |
Anchor hit
a hole in the gelcoat, if you have factory mounted bowsprint |
Lift the anchor arm
and see if it can reach some part of the gelcoat on the top of the deck |
Ask shipyard to add a
stainless steel rub plate |
Hanse 370 |
Mastfoot
blocks |
If they are smaller than 72 mm blocks from Lewmar, demand they are
changed to 72mm blocks. They WILL brake sooner or later. |
Require better blocks from

Hanse 370 |
Self tacking jib loosened from the top |
Check all shackles yourself, even those high up. Don't trust that they
are tight.. |
|
Hanse 370 |
Main sail
very difficult to hoist |
Hoist the sail and judge
yourself if it is easy to hoist all the way up with no effort or winch. |
Check that all travellers
on the sail are straight and not twisted. If this will not help demand
shipyard to re-sow the sail with longer shackles. Look on this website
under "Mainsail" how we did it. You will not like the exercise and
hassle in a long run! |
Hanse 370 |
Bathing ladder may drop
off during sailing |
Check that it fits in its
holes properly |
Tie it up with a security
lanyard to the boat. It is good to have the ladder in its place if
someone falls overboard. The bathing platform is too heavy to handle and
does not go below the water surface |

battery is charging. |
|
|

outside |
|
|
|

|
|
|
Chain locker |
Check that water will get
out from the locker. There migt be some dirt and dust in the tube from
the cleaning of the boat. Also check from the inside that all hose
clamps are tightened so you will not get water inside the hull if the
hose comes loose. |
|
|
Assemble anchor line,
chain and anchor (Ankarolina-roll) |

properly closed |

http://www.hanseklubben.se/wpc/forums/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=3258
Vi
har gjort den här turen tre gånger. Du måste ha koll öppningstiderna för bron i
Wiek och bron i Stralsund, tiderna finns på nätet. Stralsund har en bra hamn
alldeles efter bron och med gångavstånd till centrum. Det blir ingen särskilt
lång etapp men Stralsund är värt ett besök.
Vi har antingen gått ut
söder om Hiddensee och satt kurs mot Mön eller gått rakt norrut och satt kurs
mot Falsterbo.
Om man inte stannar i
Stralsund är Vitte på Hiddensee en bra hamn. Sträckan till Klintehamn på Mön är
kortare än sträckan till Falsterbo men vindriktningen har fått bestämma.
Från Klintehamn är det en
lagom etapp till Dragör utanför Köpenhamn.
Nästa etapp har blivit
Helsingborg eller Torekov. Båda hamnarna är trevliga med bra restauranger.
Om man väljer att följa
svenska kusten kan det vara lagom att gå till Glommen eller Varberg annars är
Anholt värt ett besök. Sedan är man snart hemma.
Vägen öster om Rügen har vi
inte prövat det känns som att det blir en ganska lång första etapp från
Greiswald upp till Sverige första dagen med en ny båt vill man gärna pröva
prylarna och inte bara sträcksegla.
