Deck Equipment
Anchor Windlass (Option)
Your yacht may feature an optional anchor windlass. Read the
windlass manual supplied in your yacht’s owner’s packet for
detailed operating instructions and observe the following:
•
To haul the anchor, use engine power (not the windlass) to
move the boat to, and directly above, the anchor. Activate the
windlass to disengage the anchor from the bottom by pulling
it straight up. Do not pull the boat to the anchor using the
windlass or continue to operate the windlass if it has stalled
or is overloaded.
•
Verify the windlass breaker on the DC panel is activated
before using the windlass.
Windshield Wipers
•
Windshield wiper and washer switches are located at the helm.
•
Periodically, due to wear and environmental exposure, you will need to replace wiper blades using 28” blade
refills. Instructions for replacing the wiper blades can usually be found on the blade replacement package.
•
The windshield wiper fluid level should be checked occasionally and refilled as necessary. The windshield wiper
fluid bottle can be accessed through the galley floor cutout.
Electrical System
We strongly recommend you read and understand this section and the electrical section of the Owner’s Manual. Elec-
trical routing illustrations are provided in Appendix A of this supplement; wiring schematics in Appendix B.

EXTREME FIRE, SHOCK & EXPLOSION HAZARD!
•
To minimize the risks of fire and explosion, never install knife switches or other arcing
devices in the fuel compartments.
•
Never substitute automotive parts for marine parts. Electrical, ignition and fuel system
parts were designed and manufactured to comply with rules and regulations that minimize
risks of fire and explosion.
•
Do not modify the electrical systems or relevant drawings.
•
Only qualified personnel should install batteries and/or perform electrical system
maintenance.
•
Insure that all battery switches are in the off position before performing any work in the
engine spaces.
DANGER!
!
FIRE, OPEN FLAME & EXPLOSION HAZARD!
•
Fuel fumes are heavier than air and will collect in the bilge areas where they can be acci-
dently ignited. Visually and by smell (sniff test), check the engine and fuel compartments for
fumes or accumulation of fuel. Always operate the bilge blowers for at least four minutes
prior to engine starting, electrical system maintenance or activation of electrical devices.
•
Minimize the danger of fire and explosion by not exposing batteries to open flame or sparks.
It is also important that no one smoke anywhere near the batteries.
