exhaust fan when showering to remove moisture from the head. The dryer you can keep
the inside of the boat, the less likely you will have a mildew problem.
HOT WATER
Hot water is provided by an 11-gallon tank heated electrically and by a heat exchanger from the
engine.
1.
You automatically have hot water if the engine is running, and it will stay hot for quite
awhile even after the engine is turned off. So if you have been cruising for a couple
hours, you should have abundant hot water after the engine is off.
2.
When connected to shore power or using the generator, make sure the WATER HEATER
circuit breaker on the SHOREPOWER OR GENERATOR distribution panel is in the ON
position
DECK WASH
There is a deck wash access port at the bow on the starboard side of the windless and also in the
aft cockpit. Salt water is pumped through the self-coiling hoses (kept with the fresh water hose in
the lazaret or may already be connected for easy access), which you can use to clean the anchor
and chain, or wash dirt overboard through the deck drains. We will usually keep one wash down
hose installed at the bow for convenance in washing down the anchor and chain.
To utilize the system:
1.
Plug in and twist the hose into the seawater access point. Turn on the SEAWATER
WASHDOWN C/B on the DC electrical panel at the office station. Seawater should
pressurize the hose and enable you to stand at the bow and use the spray nozzle to clean
the anchor and chain as it comes out of the water. It is best to spray water on the chain
before it gets to the roller so that mud and other debris washes back to the sea and not
onto the deck or in the chain locker.
2.
If there is no water flow, check to see that the seawater seacock, located in the engine
room is OPEN. Also, gently tapping on the sea water pump can help dislodge material
and start the pump. Sometimes an airlock will occur preventing the pump to prime itself.
Should this occur, try holding the aft wash down sprayer low to the deck and pull the
trigger…this will aid in priming the pump.
GALLEY
STOVE
To operate the stove:
1.
Check the propane tank valve is open. (Tanks are located in the propane locker in the aft
cockpit port side of the salon door.
2.
Propane should be available to the stovetop and oven. If DC power has been turned off
and then restored, the alarm in the galley near the floor will chirp. (Propane is
automatically turned off with loss of DC power) You must turn the detector switch off
then on to turn the gas on.
3.
The stove is equipped with electric starters, to activate push in and turn the knob until the
burner starts. A safety feature is installed in the event the flame goes out the gas will
automatically stop. To restart, turn the burner off then back on.
