switches (5) on the steering console. The automatic bilge pumps are equipped
with an alarm signal which is activated when the pump starts.
The manual bilge pump (1) is controlled with its handle, which is located in the
port side stowage casing of the afterdeck. The purpose of the manual bilge
pump is to drain the tank space.

the fore cabin (4). The bilge water level should remain at a minimum.
The output of each automatic bilge pump is 41 litres per minute. The manual
bilge pump’s output is 33 litres per minute.
