Freshwater Pump
Depress the “FRESH WATER” switch located on the
console switch panel (See figure 2.14.1) to activate the
freshwater pump thus drawing water from the water tank
and providing pressure to the freshwater shower.
.
Transom Shower
The transom shower is located behind an access door
in the starboard aft cockpit. The shower hose extends
approximately six (6) feet and is fitted with a shower
spray head activated by a button on the back of the
unit.
Maintenance of the livewell system requires periodic
inspection of the raw water intake strainer and all
hose connections. Clean away debris and/or tighten
hose connections as required.
Livewell
The livewell located on the port side of the stern deck
will keep baitfish alive by circulating fresh seawater
through the tank.
Before operating the system make certain the hull
seacock and the livewell valve is in the open position
(Figure 3.9.1). The hull seacock can be accessed through
the aft cockpit hatch and the livewell valve through the
door on the port aft cockpit wall.
Fill the livewell by pressing the switch marked
“LIVEWELL” on the console switch panel (See
figure 2.14.1). A drain tube with strainer connects to
the livewell overflow drain and will direct overflow/
excess water to the transom thru-hull drain.
