3. Attach the other end of the hose to the dockside water tap.
4. Close all sink and shower faucets.
5. Make sure the Auto Sump circuit breaker on the Safety Breaker
Panel is ON.
6. Turn the dockside water tap ON.
Bilge System
Your boat contains three bilges and three automatic bilge pumps. The bilge
is the lowest point in the interior of the boat’s hull where any water that
finds its way into the hull will accumulate. Each
bilge pump can remove up
to 1500 gallons of water per hour.
The bilges include the areas described below. Refer to the bilge diagram in
this section for the exact location of the bilge pumps.
• The
forward bilge runs from the bow to the forward engine room
bulkhead.
• The amidships bilge runs the length of the engine room. It contains
the amidships bilge pump, located beneath the forward edge of the
generator.
• The aft bilge runs from the aft engine room bulkhead to the boat’s stern.
It contains the aft bilge pump, located beneath a hatch in the cockpit.
Never store anything in the bilges. Storing loose items in the bilges could damage
pumps, pipes or other components that are essential for the proper operation of your
boat.
If you keep your boat in a climate where temperatures can drop below freezing, make
sure that all water within the bilges is drained before you store the boat for the winter.
Water that freezes in the bilge could cause severe damage to your boat and its
components. Refer to Section 8 - Bilge for more information on winterizing the bilge.
Bilge Pump Operation
For safety and convenience, the forward, amidships and aft bilge pumps
can be operated either automatically or manually. The engine room bilge
pump operates automatically only.
The bilge pumps remove almost, but not quite, all of the water that collects
within the bilge. If you want your bilge to be completely dry, use a sponge
and bucket to remove the small amount of water that remains.
