Try to eliminate movement, as this leads to wear. Pad straps and tie down lines, so they do not wear into the boat. I leave sails and other loose gear in the boat, though I usually tie sailbags in, and leave the rudder in a rudder bag, lying on the floor. Anything in the boat that could move or bang, should be tied off and/or padded.

For the Los Angeles-based band, see Malbec (band). Malbec (pronounced: [mal.bÉk]) is a purple grape variety used in making red wine. The grapes tend to have an inky dark color and robust tannins, and are known as one of the six grapes allowed in the blend of red Bordeaux wine. The French plantations of Malbec are now found primarily in Cahors in South West France.
