IMPORTANT SAFEW INFORMATIONSailing is wonderful recreation, but it is important that you take certain simple salety precautions.
The following are some of the more important boating safety precautions. We discuss most more fully later on in thisbooklet, but put them here for your quick review.
1. Learn To Be A Good Sailor. lt takes time and, often, thorough instruction to learn to be both a safe and effectivesailor. Unless you have already received instructlon, you shoufd attend the classes in your area or take a home study"Skipper's Course." Write your nearest Coast Guard or local U.S. Power Squadron office for further inlormaton.
2. Danger of Lightning and Electrical Power Lines. lf your boat is struck by lightning or if the mast or rigging makescontact with an electrical power l ine, you may be seriously burned or kil led. Even though your O'Day boat has alightning ground system which complies with industry standards, this sti l l may not protect you i l l ightning shouldstrike the boat and wil l not protect you if the mast hits an overhead power l ine. To best protect yourselves from thesehazards:
(a) check the weather forecast before going sail ing; if thunderstorms or l ightning is predicted, do not go out.(b) if you are out and find that l ightning is present in your area, stay as far as possible away from the mast, boom,standing rigging, and all other metall ic objects. These are all electrical conductors, which wil l carry electric currentand cause severe shock, injury or death.
(c) when launching your boat and when sail ing, be very careful not to allow the mast or rigging to touch anyoverhead wire. Beware of all overhead wires; high-voltage power transmission l ines are usually not insulated andfrequently look very similar to overhead telephone lines, yet they carry lethal currents. Consult nautical charts for theareas where you are sail lng to make sure that there are no electrical l ines which are hanging low enough that theymight touch your mast or rigging. Know how high the top of your mast stands from the water so that you wil l knowwhether you wil l pass safely beneath electrical power l ines.
3. Safety Accessories: Never use your boat withor.rt carrying all of the required safety accessories, such as fireextinguisher, distress signaling equipment, and personaf f lotation devices.
4. Float Plan; Weather. Leave a float plan (giving details on where you are going, with whom and when you plan tobe back) so that you can be located and so that someone wil l know if you are overdue and be able to start a search foryou. Carefully check the weather before you go out and periodically during your sail. No matter how well designed anyboat is, there are weather conditions which it cannot withstand. While your boat has been designed to be self-rightingunder most circumstances, this does not mean that your boat wil l always right itself if capsized. Wet sails or roughweather conditions might even prevent you from manually uprighting it. Under normal circumstances your boat wil lnot sink if capsized as long as you have closed and battened down all the hatches and other openings; however, inrough weather or unusual circumstances it could sink- Furthermore, if the boat is swamped and even if you domanage to get it to float upright, exposure to cold water for even a few minutes or to warm water for a longer period oftime can cause hypothermia (a decrease in the body's temperature) and be fatal. Make sure you know what weatherconditions you are going to encounter, and that you are well trained in bad-weather seamanship in case the weather
changes unexpectedly.5. Relueling. Exercise extreme care when refueling your. boat. (See Fueling Proceedure). You could cause an ex-plosion or f ire, which could badly burn or kil l you. Never take a l ighted match or work with an open f lame (for example,a blow torch) in the fuel storage compartment, because even a low level of vapors may be present and catch on fire or
explode.6. ll$Volt Shore Power. lf you hook up to shore power, make sure the polarity-warning light and buzzer are not
signaling. lf they do, disconnect power immediately! This indicates that the polarity of the power cord is reversed andyou could get an electrical shock that would burn or kil lyou.

BOAT STORAGE
Whenever a boat is pul led from the water, for work or storage, care
must be taken to provide adequate and proper support of the hul t ,
Th i s i s espec ia l l y t rue o f f i n - kee I sa i l boa ts .
I t is not recommended. that the weight of the boat be rested solely
on the keel . Because of the sma1l area of the keel bottom, the
local ized loads on the hul l in the area of the keel wouLd be severe
and could resul t in permanent damage to the shape or structure of
the boat.
f f poppets are used for support l they should be located so that the
pads are under bul-kheads, berth f ronts or pan str ingers, so that the
load i s d i spe rsed ( see Dock ing P lan ) . Fa i l u re to p rope r l y pos i t i on
the poppets could resul t in hul l depression. Be sure to use an
adequate number of supports, and locate them to prevent the boat from
tipping fore or af t . A storage cradl"e designed for th is boat is
avai lable through your Cal deafer.
when haul ing any boat with a propeJ. ler shaft , be sure to disconnect
the coupl ing before l i f t ing the boat. This wi l I p levent bending
of the shaft as the boat changes shape when l i f ted.
Do not careen ( lean the boat over on i ts s ide) a f in-keel sai lboat.
the hul l , keel , and rudcler shoufd survive any accidental groundings.
However, care nust be taken to keeP the boat as balanced and upr lght
as possible to prevent excessive loads-
DANGER: WHEN YOU ARE HAULING, LAUNCHING, AND SAILTNG NEAR LOW OVER-
HEAD WIRES, YOI,I MUST BE VERY CAREFUL THAT THE MAST NOT TOUCH THE VIIRES.

This guide has been prepared to assist you in the propermaintenance of your Edson Steering System. To properly main-tain the moving parts in the top of the pedestal, it is necessaryto remove the compass and its cylinder. For proper alignmmentwhen re- instal l ing the compass, we recommend placing 3 or 4lengths of tape on the pedestal and compass as shown below.Sl i t the tap when removing compass, al ign the str ips of tapewhen re- instal l ing the compass for v isual compass re-al ignment. Your compass MUST then be check for accuracy.Lubr icat ion of needle bear ings should be done by squeezingEdson Fig. #827 Tef lon l-ubricant into the holes located on topof the bear ing housings inside the pedestal bowl. Spin thewheel when squeezing the lubr icant in to make sure the ent i rebearing is serviced. Winch grease or water pump grease can beused as an alternative, but don't let the bearings run dry. Do notover grease as i t wi l l run onto the brake pads. Oi l the chain wi th#30 weight motor oil. Do not grease chain as it does notpenetrate the l inks.Inspect the condi t ion of the wire, tension of the wire and l ight lyoi l . Edson recommends placing about 5 layers of "Kleenex" onthe palm of your hand, squir t o i l on the t issues and l ight ly oi lthe wire. This wi l l lubr icate the strands but wi l l a lso " f lag" abroken or hooked strand by tearing off a small section oftissue. lf you do have a wire break, replace the wire immediate-ly. See Edson Fig.775 wire and chain replacement k i ts. (Cau-t ion: Wire spl inters can cause painful cuts.) Replace the wire.after 5 years. lf sti l l good, keep the old wire on board as a spare.To check for proper wire tension, lock the wheel in posi t ion byusing the pedestal brake, or by ty ing of f the wheel. Cable ten-sion is best when you cannot move the quadrant or drive wheelby hand with the wheel locked in place. Over t ightening wi l lgreat ly reduce the sensi t iv i ty of the system.

It must be emphasized that all on board must be familiar withthe care and operation of the Steering System and engine con-trols. One person must be assigned the iob of maintenance andmust be thoroughly familiar with the operation and intent of allthe equipment. lf at any time your Steering System makesstrange noises or reacts differently than it has previously, youmust find the causes immediately and correct the problem.Screws, nuts, bolts as well as clevis and cotter pins that arepart of the steering system, engine controls, or pedestal acces-sories must be check regularly for t ightness and wear. Failureto inspect all steering parts, engine controls and pedestal ac-cessories may cause loss of control or failure of the engine orsteering system. All boats must have an emergency ti l ler or itsequivalent and all on baard must be familiar with its locationand operation, An emergency tiller drill isiusl as important as aman-averboard drill and must be regularly conducted.On a new boat and at least once a year, inspect the systemwhen under a strong load. On a calm day and under power, goaway from the other boats and with the person who is assignedthe maintenance watching from below, put the wheel hard overat fu l l throt t le. The maintenance man should watch careful lyfor al l parts of the system bending, distort ing, creaking, or giv-ing any indication of fail ing if placed under a heavy load for aperiod of t ime. lf for any reason, something did fail or needs ad-just ing the day is ear ly and you wi l l have plenty of t ime.When leaving your boat at her mooring or slip, make sure thatyour wheel is properly tied off . Do NoT LEAVE THE STEER|NGSYSTEM TO FREE WHEEL.The pedestal exterior should be cleaned with detergent andwater, do not use acetone oriand any other strong solvents asthey may damage the finish. Edson wil l be pleased to assistyou. Call us or write us if we can help.
Note: All boats must have someform of emergency steering.

Hello O’Day owners! We own a 1978 O’day 30 which we keep at Pickwick Lake in Tennessee. The boat is very roomy and we’ve had a lot of fun sailing it. This manual was on board when we bought it. This manual appears to be of about 1983-1984 vintage. I suspect that the second owner bought it. We are the third owners. If anyone has a copy of a 1977-1979 vintage manual, we would love to get a copy. I have a nice little scanner and would be glad to scan it for all to enjoy. This manual has a lot of good information, but some of it is dated and may not apply to your boat. Use it with care and at your own risk. Our boat has a Yanmar YSB-12 engine, and I’m going to scan that manual next.
We wish you smooth sailing! Andy & Janet Nuckolls [email protected]
