Draining the bilge water on water
This model is equipped with a self-draining
deck and bilge pump to drain the bilge water
on water.
Self-draining deck
Most water that enters the deck area drains
automatically out the stern through the large
drain hole in the deck.
A one-way check valve in the drain prevents
water from traveling back to the deck while
the boat is moored or moving in reverse.
Bilge pump
Your boat is equipped with a drainage sys-
tem that channels water that enters the boat
from the storage compartments to the bilge
under the engine compartment.
When the bilge pump switch is turned on, the
bilge pump will operate.

Bilge pump switch
Even if the bilge pump switch is not turned
on, the bilge pump will detect when there is
excessive water in the bilge and will automat-
ically drain most of it through the bilge pump
outlet. This function works automatically,
even if the battery switches are turned to the
off position.

TIP:
The bilge pump indicator light comes on
while the bilge pump is operating.
When the bilge pump operates automati-
cally, the bilge pump will not stop until
most of the bilge water is drained.
