The Winter Solstice has Passed!
The Winter Solstice has now passed which means we’re at the peak of the long dark nights. Longer days and shorter nights are on the horizon as the earth begins its gradual roll back towards summer for the Southern Hemisphere. So, rig up your rods, dust off those dive tanks and wax your wakeboards! If your boat requires maintenance in readiness for finer weather, contact our Service Centre Team today. Ensuring your on-water experiences are nothing short of premium is the core of our ethos.

TRISTRAM TECH TIP / Capstan Care
It’s important to periodically check the condition of your capstan as well as your warp and chain for signs of deterioration. Be sure to examine your capstan’s motor and terminals. If there is any sign of corrosion or you’ve noticed changes in your capstan’s performance, contact the Tristram Service Centre team for advice. If your warp is in good condition but is slipping in the capstan when launching or retrieving, try tightening your capstan clutch with the provided tool, or schedule a booking with the Tristram Technicians to have your capstan serviced.

Battery Isolating switches are fitted for your safety and to control battery charging and current draw circuits. The start isolator controls the engine and capstan circuits while the house isolator switches on all dash electronics.
