Sea Water Systems
The baitwell switch controls a pump mounted on a seacock in the bilge. An overflow
tube is provided that is inserted into the drain to allow circulation to keep bait alive. The
washdown pump is mounted in the bilge on the aft face of the aft fuel tank bulkhead.
The pump is equipped with a pressure switch. Turn the main switches off if the pumps
are not going to be used soon. Sea water is taken in through a “T” fitting on the seacock
and a strainer on the pump filters the sea water. The filter must be cleaned as needed to
avoid pump damage. The seacock should be closed when not in use.

Fuel / Oil System
The fuel tank on your Pro-Line is made of heavy gauge aluminum with internal baffling
to minimize sloshing. The tank is vented overboard and the vent should be inspected for
obstructions regularly. Deck plate access ports are placed over the hose connections and
the sending unit. Inspect the hose connections on a regular basis. There may be a leak
somewhere in the fuel system if you notice a fuel odor or see fuel in the bilge. Correct
any fuel leaks before operating the vessel.
Fuel filter / water separator unit(s) are located in the starboard bilge area. There is one
unit for each motor and the spin on cartridges should be renewed every season at a
minimum. Fuel tanks that are not kept full accumulate water faster due to condensation.
The cartridge(s) may need to be replaced more often depending upon usage and
conditions or if motors begin to run rough. When replacing the filters / separators, coat
the rubber seal with a film of grease or oil to help prevent sticking.
A primer bulb is used to prime the engine fuel pump with fuel. There is a primer bulb for
each engine. Squeeze the bulb a few times until resistance is felt in order to prime. If no
resistance develops and the fuel pump will not prime, you may be out of fuel, the primer
