Bow Thruster
The bow thruster aids in maneuvering your boat. The outboard engines can control the
direction of the stern while the bow thruster moves the bow. Use the joystick control located at
the helm to control the thruster. The emergency shut-off switch provides a simple method to
quickly disconnect power from the thruster motor. Depress this button to disengage the
thruster in the event of an emergency. Reference
“Bow Thruster & Power Assist Layout” on
page 8–37
for a layout diagram.
Cabin Lights
The cabin light switch on the DC panel supplies power to all lighting in the cabin, head, and
aft berth. This switch must be on for any light to function. The main cabin lighting is
controlled by the dimmer switch located on the wire cover box near the cabin door entrance
— this switch has two small concentric circles on it. This dimmer switch controls the recessed
lights in the dinette and galley. Simply press and release the switch to turn the lights on at full
intensity and the lights will fade on slowly. While the lights are fading on, the switch may be
pressed again to stop the lights from intensifying. The lights will remain on at whatever level
they were at when the switch was pressed. Also, the switch may be held in when originally
turning on the lights and released when the lights reach the desired level. Another switch is
located beside the dimmer switch. This switch controls the low-level lighting in the cabin
steps and at the etched glass by the dinette. Two more switches are located forward of the
microwave in the V-berth area. One controls the low-level lighting recessed above the V-berth
walls. The other controls the two recessed lights in the V-berth. The three lights above the
mirrored cabinet in the head are controlled by a wall switch on the forward head wall. The
overhead light in the aft berth and the rail light in the galley have switches built into each
light. See
“12 Volt DC Lighting Diagram” on page 8–45
for wiring detail.
Cockpit Shower
To operate the cockpit showers located in the starboard rigging station and beside the aft
fishbox near the transom door, the fresh water switch located on the AC/DC panel must be in
the on position or a shore water supply must be connected. To operate the pull out shower at
the rigging station, pull out the hose and depress the lever on the back of the wand to spray
water. For continuous or hands free operation, pull up on the lever until it reaches the locked
position. The aft cockpit shower may be used be simply removing the shower wand from the
storage cup and depressing the button on the shower head. To reinstall either shower wand,
gently feed the hose down through the deck and return the faucet to the base.
C A U T I O N
To avoid damaging the sheer pin in the bow thruster lower unit, do not engage the thruster when
the propeller is not submerged. Also, do not suddenly change direction of thrust without allowing
the propeller time to stop.
