Chapter 6: Plumbing

Bilge Pumps

•

Your yacht is
equipped with
four bilge
pumps which
are used to
pump water out
of the bilge.

•

The bilge pumps
are controlled
by automatic
float switches
(autofloat
switches) and/or
switches at
the helm.

•

Since the bilge
pumps are wired
directly to the
battery, they
should work
even when the
yacht is shut
down and
left unattended.

Discharge of oil, oil waste or fuel into navigable waters is prohibited by law. Violators are sub-
ject to legal action by the local authorities.
