Helm
The steering, engine controls, engine instruments
and switches for exterior equipment, navigation
lights and other 12 volt DC accessories are lo-
cated on the helm station. A molded-in electronics
mounting panel is located forward of the engine
controls. A 12 volt USB connection is also located
in the helm.
Service panels in the rear head compartment
bulkhead can be opened or removed to service
helm equipment and install electronics or other
accessories. There are also fuse panels that pro-
vide protection for electronics, helm accessories,
digital switching or other equipment added by you
or your dealer.
Windshield
Your boat is equipped with a tinted glass wind-
shield and could be equipped with an optional
windshield wiper and washer. The front and side
panels are tempered safety glass.
Ventilation through the windshield is provided by
an opening center panel at the top of the wind-
shield. The vent panel is opened and closed by
an electric actuator controlled by the Vent Extend/
Retract switches in the helm switch panel.
A windshield wiper and washer is an available op-
tion. The windshield wiper should only be used
when the windshield is wet. The windshield glass
can be scratched by activating the wiper when
there is dried salt or dirt on the windshield.
The windshield/hardtop frame is powder coated
aluminum. Powder coated aluminum is very
durable and provides excellent resistance to the
corrosive effects of saltwater, however, it must
be maintained properly and certain precautions
must be observed.
The windshield should be washed after each use
with soap and water to keep it clean and reduce
the corrosive effects of the saltwater. Saltwater
allowed to remain on the windshield frame will
eventually begin to attack the aluminum, usually
around fasteners and hardware mounted to the
frame.
Refer to the Routine Maintenance chapter for
more information on the care and maintenance
of powder coated aluminum.
