Bilge Pump
Your Pro Line is equipped with an automatic bilge pump system with a manual override. The
pump is located in the bilge at the keel. The pump is mounted as low as possible. If the pump runs
for a long time it may mean that water is entering the bilge faster than the pump can expel it.
Investigate and correct the cause immediately. The automatic float switch is wired directly to the
battery terminal through an in-line fuse. Keep the bilge area clean and free from debris that could
clog ports. The helm switch overrides normal automatic operation on the primary pump. Circuit
breakers are located at the helm. Keep the battery charged that the bilge pump is attached to. If the
battery is discharged and flooding occurs the boat could swamp, causing damage and possible loss
of life or property.
Lights
For operation at night, your Pro Line is equipped with navigation and anchor lights to indicate your
position to other boaters. While running after dark the nav. lights are required to be on and visible
to other boaters, visually verify operation and lack of obstructions. Lights are also provided for the
cockpit, helm and head.
Breaker Switches
The wiring on your Pro Line is protected by circuit breaker or fuse. Breakers are located beside the
switches or on the main breaker panel on the transom panel. If a device stops working first suspect
the circuit breaker is tripped (or fuse blown).
A tripped breaker will protrude from its set position, indicating that the circuit has been
overloaded. Turn off the device(s) on the circuit then reset the breaker by pushing in once. If the
breaker does not reset or if it resets and then pops out again after the device is turned back on, then
a short circuit exists or your device may be damaged, overloaded or faulty. Correct the problem
and then reset the breaker. If the breaker continues to pop and you are certain the device, switch
and wiring are in good repair; either the breaker is too small for the load or is faulty. Reduce the
load or replace the breaker.
Systems
Sea
Water
System
The bait-well 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 pump is
mounted just above the bilge pump in the bilge. The pump is equipped with a pressure switch.
Turn the main switch off if the pump is not going to be used soon. Raw water is taken in by the
thruhull fitting with a seacock. A strainer on the pump filters the raw water. The filter must be
cleaned as needed to avoid pump damage. Seacocks on all below water line fittings should be
closed when not in use.
