Transom Door
Do not use the transom door when the boat
is in motion. DO NOT leave the transom
door unlatched. Latch it in the full “OPEN” or
full “CLOSED” position.
Stern Bait and Tackle Rigging Station
(C 280 and C 310)
The sink is equipped with a fresh water
sprayer and drains overboard. The cooler is
insulated and drains overboard. The tackle
locker below the sink provides access to the
stern bilge area.
When the livewell option is selected on the
S 280, the cooler is replaced with the
livewell. The tackle locker below the sink
provides access to the stern bilge area.
Below Deck Fishbox
The fishbox(es) located in the cockpit are
drained by a macerator pump located in the
bilge. Pump out and clean the fishbox(es)
after each use. Refer to Drainage Systems
for more information on the fishbox drain-
age.
Refrigerator (S 280 and ST 310)
The leaning post is equipped with a DC
refrigerator. While operating on 12-volt
power without the engines running, the
refrigerator may drain the battery severely,
with extended use. When at dockside make
sure the battery charger is ON. Refer to the
refrigerator owner's manual for additional
operating and maintenance instructions. The
"Fridge" breaker in the MDP provides circuit
protection for the refrigerator. Refer to the
Electrical System Chapter.
Aft Seats C 280, S 280, C 310
To open the aft seat, lift the bolster and care-
fully lower the cushion to the full lowered
position. To close, lift the bolster and care-
fully raise the cushion to the full closed posi-
tion.
Keep hands away from the seat mecha-
nism when opening and closing.
Aft Seats ST 310
The stern bench seat is hinged and opens to
access the removable cooler. The engines
must be tilted to the full "DOWN" position,
the transom door open, and the latches
released to open the bench seat. A hatch
lifter will hold seat in the open position and
prevents it from opening too far. Remove the
cooler to access the bilge. Refer to Drainage
in the Plumbing Systems section.

hazards will cause death or serious
injury. DO NOT use the swim/boarding
platform when the engine is running.

ous injury. Close and secure door/

periodically for wear, damage or loose
