INSTALLATION AND CIRCUIT – DRAINAGE
7.2.
Draining water from the deck
The boat is self-draining and it is equipped
with a rainwater drainage network:
two drains in the deck, one forward of the console
and a second one forward of the bolster. They are
both linked to a drain pipe that passes through
the hull. Two other drains in the aft deck are
linked to dump outlets in the transom.
7.3.
Bilge pump:
USE
The bilge pump works independently of the battery switch. The control switch
is always under
power.
Automatic operation (fixed position): in this position, the bilge pump operates automatically. The
light is on.
When moored, even for months at a time, it is normal to see the bilge pump light on. This light will
not discharge your battery.
Off: in this position (fixed position), the bilge is off. The light is off.
This position should almost never be used, unless the boat is out of the water and under cover.
Always on: the button must remain pressed for always on operation. As soon as you release it, the
button will return to the automatic position (1).
