5.1 Maintenance Introduction

Seakeepers are designed to require minimal maintenance since most of the critical components operate in a sealed enclosure, protected from the corrosive moisture involved with life on the water. Outside of the sphere, the closed-loop hydraulic circuit and the cooling circuit should be periodically inspected.

If the Seakeeper is installed in a wet space, efforts should be made to keep the Seakeeper free of salt residue from either condensation or direct exposure to salt spray. If exposed, a regular wipe down with mild soap and water with a rinse will help limit corrosion and keep the Seakeeper assembly in good cosmetic condition. Refer to the Seakeeper article, How to Care for Your Seakeeper, for details.

If any components of the Seakeeper or its sub-systems will be exposed to environmental temperatures where winterization is necessary for storage. Contact a local dealer for assistance in winterizing your Seakeeper.

The Seakeeper comes standard with sealant and thread locker on applicable fasteners. When reinstalling all fasteners use thread locker and sealant unless otherwise specified.
