To ensure that both battery switches will turn off, place both switches in the off position and try to start up
the engines. When both switches are off, you should not be able to start either engine.
If the breaker continues to trip and you are certain the device, switch and wiring are in good repair; either
the breaker is faulty or it is too small for the load. Reduce the load or replace the breaker.
Shore Power with Cord
Shore power is used for the operation of AC devices such as your air
conditioner, battery charger, and 110 Volt outlets for other appliances.
The shore power package includes a 25-foot long yellow shore power
cord.
The shore power outlet is located on the port wing, aft of the port light
and next to the optional cable outlet. To connect your shore power
system:
Turn the shore power outlet fitting and lift it up.
Plug the shore power cord into the outlet on the boat.
Connect the shore power cord to the receptacle at your marina or dock.
Only then should you switch the AC main breaker to on.
If the polarity light (red) is on, unplug the shore power (first at the shore outlet, then at the
shore power outlet on the boat) and do not use it, until a qualified technician corrects this
potentially dangerous situation.
Note: Before attempting to connect to shore power, take precautions to minimize contact
arcing by making sure that the AC main breaker switch is in the off position prior to
plugging into shore power. The AC main breaker is located on the AC panel on the port
aft cabin wall.
Please refer to the owner’s manual provided by the manufacturer of the shore power unit for operational
procedures and for information related to the care and maintenance of their product. When in doubt, always
defer to the shore power manufacturer’s instructions and/or recommendations.
Generator – 5.0 kw Gas with Drip Shield(Optional)
The gas generator comes equipped with a remote generator control
panel, blower and two carbon monoxide detectors with automatic shut
off controls.
The generator is installed in the aft area of the bilge and it can be started
either direct from the generator or remotely from the AC panel in the
cabin. There is one carbon monoxide detector installed in the V-berth of
the main salon and another in the mid berth.
Before attempting to operate the generator, the boat must
be in the water or have some type of water flushing system
going into the generator water pick up. The generator
seacock is mounted on the port side in the bilge. Inspect
the seacock and ensure that it is open and that the hoses
are all connected.
Generator
seacock is in the
closed position
Before starting the generator:
Make sure that the battery switch is set to the port/house battery.
Go into the cabin, locate the AC/DC panel and move the generator breaker switch to the
on position.
Make sure that the Start/Stop switch in the cabin is in the run (center) position.
