Chapter 6: Plumbing
Bilge Pumps
•
Your boat has two
bilge pumps for
pumping water out of
the bilge.
•
The autofloat
switches, mounted
next to the bilge
pumps, will turn On
the bilge pumps if
bilge water rises
above a preset level.
•
You can also turn On
the bilge pumps
using the switches at
the helm.
•
The bilge pumps are
wired directly to the
battery. Unless the
battery is dead, the
bilge pump system
should work even
when your boat is
unattended.
NOTI CE
Discharge of oil, oil waste, or fuel into navigable waters is prohibited by law. Violators are sub-
ject to legal action by the local authorities.
