Your new Horizon Hobby boat has been designed and
built with a combination of waterproof and water-resistant
components to allow you to operate the product in calm,
fresh water conditions.
While the entire boat is highly water-resistant, it is not
completely waterproof and your boat should NOT be treated
like a submarine. The various electronic components used in
the boat, such as the servo(s) and receiver are waterproof,
however, most of the mechanical components are water-
resistant and require additional maintenance after use.
Metal parts, including the bearings, pins, screws and nuts,
propeller, rudder, rudder mounts, prop struts, as well as
the contacts in the electrical cables, will be susceptible
to corrosion if additional maintenance is not performed
after running in wet conditions. To maximize the long-term
performance of your boat and to keep the warranty intact, the
procedures described in the “Wet Conditions Maintenance”
section must be performed regularly.
CAUTION: Failure to exercise caution while using
this product and complying with the following
precautions could result in product malfunction and/or
void the warranty.
Water-Resistant Boat with Waterproof Electronics
General Precautions
• Read the WET CONDITIONS MAINTENANCE
procedures and make sure that you have all the tools
you will need to properly maintain your boat.
• Not all batteries can be used in wet conditions. Consult
the battery manufacturer before use. Caution should be
taken when using Li-Po batteries in wet conditions.
• Most transmitters are not water-resistant. Consult
your transmitter’s manual or the manufacturer before
operation.
• Never operate your transmitter or boat when lightning is
present.
• Salt water is very conductive and highly corrosive. If
you choose to run your boat in salt water, immediately
rinse the boat in fresh water after each use. Operating
your boat in salt water is at the sole discretion of the
modeler.
Wet Conditions Maintenance
• Drain any water that has collected in the hull by
removing the drain plug or canopy and tilting the boat in
the appropriate direction to drain the water.
CAUTION: Always keep hands, fingers, tools and
any loose or hanging objects away from rotating
parts.
• Remove the battery pack(s) and dry the contacts. If
you have an air compressor or a can of compressed air,
blow out any water that may be inside the recessed
connector housings.
• Dry and lubricate parts after every 30 minutes of
operation or if the boat becomes submerged.
NOTICE: Never use a pressure washer to clean your boat.
• Use an air compressor or a can of compressed air to
dry the boat and help remove any water that may have
gotten into small crevices or corners.
• Spray the bearings, fasteners and other metal parts with
a water-displacing light oil or lubricant.
• Let the boat air dry before you store it. Water (and oil)
may continue to drip for a few hours.
Product Inspection
Carefully remove the boat and radio transmitter from the box. Inspect
the boat for damage. If you find damage is present, please contact
the retailer where you purchased your boat.
