TATION
Most of the boat’s controls and instruments are at the helm station. Below is a
typical layout, but it will vary. The respective circuit breakers must be on for the
equipment to operate. (See the legend in the sidebar.)
Teak Riser (Option)
This teak & Thiokol riser at the
HELM STATION
matches the
teak decking. It is 4” above the deck to improve visibility over the bow for
someone shorter than 5’6.” It may be removed and stowed in a locker.

EVERS
The dual-lever electronic control combines throttle and gear selection. When
shifting, allow the transmission to engage the new gear before throttling up.
Engine and drive features are controlled with push buttons on the
ENGINE/SHIFT
CONTROL
. Button functions may vary and depend on installation.
The 40z power steering rotates two
IPS
POD DRIVES
below the hull that swing
through a 26° arc. The steering is more
positive and immediate than deflecting
prop wash off a rudder from a propeller
on a straight shaft and far more positive
than directing a jet of water at water
passing the hull. The dual counter
rotating propellers eliminate prop walk.
