Move a portable pen board correctly
Use the handling handle to move the pen board and place it adequately under the hull.
For longer trips, use the park wheel.
Transport a ½ cradle with a fork lift
Place a strap on each handle and place traverse system locking pins on each pen board.
Deep V hull or inadequate pad angle
A strap must be placed under the pads, in between each foot in order to take up lateral effort. There is an information pictogram on each pen board.
Unstable boat and tipping forward at the front
Place a pen board with a V hull at the front of the boat.
Very stern heavy boat, crushing the hull behind the keel
Place a pen board under a frame in front of the rudder or transom.
Lifting keel boats
Place a PARKSUP 80 or 100 under the mast frame in order to bear the load and let the keel touch the ground.
