Section 4 Boat Systems
Manual Bilge Pump
Your boat might be equipped with a manual bilge
pump. You can use the manual bilge pump to aug-
ment or temporarily replace the 12 VDC bilge pump.
The manual bilge pump is a Whale Water Systems
model BP-4410, rated at 28 gpm (106 lpm). The pump
is mounted on the transom, starboard side. The pump
handle is stored near the pump. The handle is teth-
ered to the transom to avoid loss overboard.
To operate the manual bilge pump, raise the pump
cover, insert the handle, and begin pumping in a port-
to-starboard motion.
Regularly inspect the manual bilge pump and pickup
hose to ensure that they will function during an emer-
gency de-watering procedure.
Raw Water Washdown Pump
Your boat might be equipped with a 12 VDC raw water
washdown system. The raw water pump and sea
strainer are located in the aft bilge area. The pump
and sea strainer can be inspected and serviced
through the deck access hatch just forward of the
engines.
The washdown pump output can be accessed through
the hose fitting located on the port transom rigging
box.
The raw water washdown pump is protected by a 15-
amp blade fuse located in the accessory fuse block
inside the control console. The pump is equipped with
a pressure switch that activates the pump on demand
when the control switch is in the ON position.
Turn off the raw water washdown system when it is not
required to avoid discharging the house battery.
Turning the house battery OFF-ON switch to the OFF
position at the end of your mission will cut power to the
raw water washdown system.
