CHARGER
The single cord shore power scenario described
in the previous column utilizes the generator to
supplement power. Although this setup provides
maximum voltage to your boat, you may fi nd at times
that the generator noise is too interruptive. You can
still power your boat suffi ciently by utilizing the
breakers as follows:
• Slide the covers
on the panel to
expose the
SHORE POWER
#1 & BRIDGE
breakers.
• make sure the breakers are OFF.
• Proceed with setup as described on the
previous page.
Battery Charging
In addition to supplying AC power to your boat, shore
power hookup gives you the ability to charge your
batteries without running the engines.
The system is automatic and little or no maintenance
is required. The battery charger can be accessed
through the equipment hatch in the aft cockpit
deck.
Shore Power Load Management
Your boat is equipped with many devices that require
AC power for their operation. While many of these
devices are continuous use items, others are not.
The design of the electrical system has been optimized
to support the most commonly used equipment.
However, there may be situations where the operator
will need to power off certain appliances based on
load requirements, shore power connections and/or
generator operation.
