Battery Switch Panel Feeds:
The house and electronics breakers provide total disconnect of all battery power to
the electronics and house battery switches. These breakers are located in the
forward portion of the starboard battery compartment. If the boat is stored out of
the water, turning off the house electronics breakers will ensure that there is no
electrical drain from the associated batteries. Turning off the house main will
disable the automatic bilge pumps and high water alarm and cause the stereo
memory to be lost. These breakers should NEVER be turned off if the boat is kept
in the water as the automatic bilge pumps will not run.
Bow Thruster Main:
This main fuse provides protection to the bow thruster and its wiring. The fuse is
located in the control enclosure adjacent to the bow thruster battery. A spare fuse is
also stored in the enclosure.
Battery Switches:
There are three battery switches to manage the 12-volt power distribution. One switch
controls the port and starboard engine batteries. Another switch controls the center
engine and generator batteries. The third switch controls the house and the electron-
ics batteries. The port and starboard batteries, the center engine and generator
batteries or the electronics and house batteries can be paralleled by switching to the
"combine batteries" position.
Make sure all of the battery switches are in the "ON" position whenever the engines are running to ensure that
all 12-volt accessories will operate when they are needed. Current is supplied to the automatic float switches
for the bilge pumps, stereo memory, high water bilge alarm and the sump when the batteries are connected
and the battery switches are off (battery switch panel feed breakers must be on.)
THE BOAT SHOULD NOT BE OPERATED ON A CONTINUOUS BASIS WITH THE
EMERGENCY PARALLEL SWITCH IN THE "ON" POSITION.
