10.5 ENGINE WATER INTAKE VALVE
The sea water intake valve plays a crucial role in ensuring that the engine runs well.
- Keep the strainer under the hull as clean as possible ;
- brush the strainer whenever the boat is lifted out ;
- don't cover the strainer in antifoul.
This valve must absolutely always be opened before starting the engine.
A sea water filter filters the water before it goes through the heat exchanger.
Regularly inspect the sea water filter and clean it if necessary. Screw/unscrew the cover of the filter by hand (never use tools for this).
For lengthy absences, close the engine's sea water intake valve.
