Never leave the transom door unlatched.
Periodically inspect the transom door fittings for wear, damage, or loose fit. Any problems should be inspected
and corrected immediately.
THE TRANSOM DOOR SHOULD BE CLOSED AND PROPERLY LATCHED WHENEVER THE
ENGINE(S) ARE RUNNING. NEVER OPEN THE TRANSOM DOOR WHILE UNDERWAY OR
IN ROUGH SEA CONDITIONS. IN CERTAIN SITUATIONS, AN OPEN TRANSOM DOOR
COULD ALLOW A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF WATER TO ENTER THE COCKPIT CRE-
ATING A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS CONDITION. OPERATING THE BOAT UNDER
POWER WITH THE TRANSOM DOOR/GATE OPEN MAY ALLOW PERSONS TO FALL
OVERBOARD AND INTO BOAT PROPELLERS OR TO BE LOST IN OPEN WATER.
PERIODICALLY INSPECT THE TRANSOM DOOR/GATE FITTINGS FOR WEAR, DAMAGE
OR LOOSE FIT. ANY PROBLEMS SHOULD BE INSPECTED AND CORRECTED IMMEDI-
ATELY.
Hard Top
The hard top consists of a laminated fiberglass top mounted to a welded aluminum frame that is bolted to the
deck. It is designed to accommodate radio antennas, radar antennas and navigation lights. It could also be
equipped with optional outriggers and/or rod holders.
The hard top is not designed to support the additional weight of items like an instrument locker or a life raft.
Radar and electronics antennas must be mounted to the top between the front and rear legs. Do not mount
any antennas or equipment to the brow area. The hard top frame is not designed to support the weight of
accessories in this area and could be damaged. The starboard rear leg is the wire chase for lights and antennas
mounted to the top.
The warranty for the hard top will be void if the top is modified in any way or heavy accessories like life rafts,
or electronics lockers are mounted to the top. Additionally, if items like radar antennas, spotlights and other
accessories are mounted in the wrong location, the warranty could be void. If you intend to add equipment
or make modifications to the hard top, you should contact Pursuit Customer Relations to make sure the
equipment you would like to add or the intended modification will not void the warranty on the top.
Because the aluminum frames vary slightly, the side curtains, front clear connector and drop curtain are custom
made to each boat at the factory. To install the curtains, slide the front clear connector into the slide track
at the front of the top and snap it to the top of the windshield frame beginning with the center snaps. The clear
connector will have to be stretched just enough to pull out the wrinkles to reach the snaps on the windshield.
Once the clear connector is completely installed, the side curtains can be put on. Slide the side curtains into
the slide tracks on the sides of the top and to the zippers on the front connector. Snap the curtains to the
windshield and the deck beginning with the forward snaps on the windshield. The side curtains will have
to be stretched slightly to pull out the wrinkles and reach the snaps.
If you have an optional drop curtain, slide it into the slide track on the back of the hard top and attach it to
the rear of the side curtains. Snap the drop curtain to the deck and cockpit.
