Stern Seat
A recessed fold down seat is built into the rear of
the cockpit.  To use the seat, release the latches
that secure the back rest.  Then raise the back rest
and allow it to rest on the livewell.  Release the
strap and lower the seat from the stored position.
Close the back rest and secure it with the latches.
To store the seat, release the latches that secure
the back rest.  Then raise the back rest and allow
it to rest on the livewell.  Raise the front of the
seat and fold it into the recess.  Secure the seat
with the strap, close the back rest and secure it
with the latches.

Helm and Electronics Locker
The helm and engine controls are located on an opening
helm station.  The helm station is hinged at the bottom
and opens to provide access to service the helm equip-
ment.   A removable panel in the cabin provides access
for installing and servicing the gauges and electronics.

To open the helm station, slide the helm seat back as far
as it will go and unscrew the knobs at the top of the helm.
A strap holds the helm in the open position and prevents
it from opening too far.  Always make sure the helm
station clamps are properly secured when the helm is
closed.

ALWAYS MAKE SURE THE HELM STATION KNOBS ARE PROPERLY SE-
CURED BEFORE OPERATING OR TRANSPORTING YOUR BOAT. IF THE
HELM STATION IS NOT PROPERLY SECURED, IT COULD OPEN UNEX-
PECTEDLY AND DAMAGE THE BOAT OR CAUSE LOSS OF CONTROL.

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD THE HELM BE OPENED WHEN THE
ENGINE(S) ARE RUNNING.  IN SOME SITUATIONS IT IS POSSIBLE TO AC-
CIDENTALLY ENGAGE THE ENGINE SHIFT INTO GEAR AND/OR ADVANCE
THROTTLE CONTROLS AS THE HELM IS OPENING.  THIS COULD RESULT
IN LOSS OF CONTROL, DAMAGE TO THE BOAT, AND INJURY TO PAS-
SENGERS.

Note: The power helm  seat must be adjusted to the full aft position and the rod locker

bridge deck hatch must be completely closed before opening the helm.
