Safety Safety
Checking for water in the bow
If water in the bow is suspected, wait for the automatic bilge pump to run, or start it from the user
interface. During pumping, a faint buzzing noise and splashing water is heard.
To make a visual check, do as follows:
1. In the cabin, unscrew the hatch to the front bilge pump.
2. Check for water in the bow. A small amount of water is normal.
3. If there is excess water, wait for the automatic bilge pump to pump out the water, or start the
pump manually from the user interface.
4. If the bilge pump functions, the water decreases and splashing water from the bilge pump
drain outlet is heard.
5. If the water remains in the bow, the boat might be taking in water, contact emergency services.
Checking for water in the stern
Check for water in the stern by waiting for the automatic bilge pump to run. To make a visual
check, do as follows:
1. Open the sunbed hatch and remove the stowage bag.
2. Check for water in the stern. A small amount of water is normal.
3. If there is excess water, wait for the automatic bilge pump to pump out the water, or start the
pump manually in the user interface.
4. If the automatic bilge pump is out of order, perform manual bilge pumping.
Emergency steering
If the electrical steering system is disabled, steering is done by rotating the rudder by hand. If the
pod motor is still functioning:
1. Remove the aft box lid to access the rudder.
2. Slowly steer to safe harbor by rotating the rudder.
Loss of propulsion
If both steering and pod motor are disabled:
1. Anchor the boat, if possible.
2. Call the emergency services.
