6/ Raw Water and Freshwater Systems
6.1 GENERAL
Your boat is equipped with an optional freshwater and raw water system. This system
includes a freshwater tank, distribution lines, a pump, and a showerhead assembly, in
addition to the standard head. The standard raw water system consists of a high speed
pick up, located in the keel just forward of the transom, a pump, and one or more
livewells and washdowns throughout the boat.
6.2 LIVEWELL OPERATION
A low maintenance centrifugal pump installed in the bilge fills the livewell. The livewell
switch on the control panel controls the pump and light. To operate properly, the valve
inside the livewell must be adjusted to provide an even flow in and out of the livewell.
The livewell drains through a hose connected to a thru-hull fitting on the side of the boat.
To drain the livewell, remove its bottom plug and allow the water to drain overboard.
6.3 HIGH PRESSURE WASHDOWN
The washdown system is comprised of a pump mounted in the aft bilge on the port side
stringer, and a washdown fitting to attach a hose. The washdown switch on the control
panel controls the pump. The diaphragm pump is fed through the same thru-hull and
high-speed pickup as the livewell pump. The washdown hose outlet is located in the stbd
aft box, just aft of the dive door. With an attached hose, this system can be used to wash
debris from the boat. The washdown switch should be turned on immediately prior to use
and turned off when not in use. When activated, the pump’s pressure switch will
automatically control the pump. It is normal for the pump to cycle on and off in response
to flow rates and water demand.
ALWAYS TURN OFF THE HIGH-PRESSURE WASHDOWN PUMP
SWITCH WHEN LEAVING THE BOAT UNATTENDED.
6.4 FRESHWATER SYSTEM
The freshwater system consists of a pump mounted in the aft bilge on the starboard
stringer and a shower head assembly. The freshwater switch on the control panel turns
on and off the freshwater pump. A freshwater tank, which is located in the bilge area
feeds the pump. The showerhead assemblies are located in the transom walkthrough,
stbd prep center, and down on the stbd head area. The freshwater switch should be
turned on immediately prior to use and turned off when not in use. When activated, the
pump’s pressure switch will automatically control the pump. It is normal for the pump to
cycle on and off in response to flow rates and water demand of the system.
ALWAYS TURN OFF THE FRESHWATER PUMP SWITCH WHEN
LEAVING THE BOAT UNNATTENDED.
