Engine
Read and understand the engine operation and maintenance manuals before using or working on the engines.
Engine Cooling System
The engine cooling system circulates raw water around components and also uses a freshwater heat exchanger on the
engine to reduce engine temperature.
•
Make sure both engine seawater intake valves (seacocks) are Open before starting the engines and keep the sea-
cocks Open while the engines are running.
•
The cooling system’s seawater strainers should be checked for leaks and debris every time you use your yacht. For
instructions on how to clean the seawater strainers, see the Seawater Systems section of this Owner’s Manual.
SYSTEM DAMAGE HAZARD!
The engine cooling system’s seacocks must be Opened before engines are started and during
engine operation.
