QUICK START GUIDE
Following is a departure checklist for an experienced captain who is familiar with the information in this
guide and the accompanying binders
.
Check Systems

Check
ENGINE
and
GENERATOR
raw water strainers (a flashlight is helpful to see into the strainers),
seacocks, coolant, engine oil and drive oil. (See
Daily Engine Check,

wires, oil drips and bilge water.
☐
Check
SEAKEEPER
and
AIR CONDITIONING
raw water strainers.
Get Set
☐
Turn off the
SHORE 1
and
SHORE 2
breakers at the
120V AC panel. Then do 1 or 2 below.
1.
If you plan to use the
GENERATOR

SEAKEEPER or the AIR CONDITIONER,
s
tart the
GENERATOR. (See page 22.)
Start the
SEAKEEPER.
(See page 29.)
2.
If don’t plan to use the GENERATOR underway, t
urn on
the INVERTER/CHARGER

, e
nsure at least 12.2V. Turn
on TRIM TABS, ELECTRONICS,
HORN, WIPERS
and other breakers for equipment you anticipate using, such as
NAVIGATION LIGHTS

Ensure people, equipment, lines and hoses aren’t in the water and everything is clear of
moving parts before you start the engine.
☐
At the top of the Raymarine screen (if set up) drag down the supplementary data bar showing RPM,
coolant temperature, oil pressure, drive oil pressure and nmpg fuel efficiency.
If voltage is too low to crank the engines, see
Starting with Low Batteries
, page 38.
If the battery is low, you should not leave the dock until you diagnose and correct the
problem.
☐
Check the Plexiglas top of the raw water strainers above the engines to ensure that raw water is
flowing.

☐
Check fuel levels, oil temperature and oil pressure. (See
Operating Parameters,
page 9.)
☐
If everything is in order, cast off dock lines. When maneuvering with the
IPS JOYSTICK
, a light touch
(taps and nudges) on the joystick is usually the most effective.
Confirm that no one is on the foredeck or in the water.
