move the head and rinse it with clean water. If necessary, clean the
discharge holes with a narrow wire.
7.4.7.2 Water Taps
Periodically remove and clean the filter screens from the sinks’ water
taps. Rinse the screens with clean water. If necessary, clean the screens
with a narrow wire. A buildup of debris in the filter screens can block the
water flow enough to cause the pressure water pump to repeatedly cycle
on and off.
7.4.7.3 Sump
Clean the sump and sump filter frequently. Hair, dirt and soap scum
collect in the sump and, if not removed, eventually clog the sump pump
or sump hoses.
7.4.7.4 Pressure Water Pump
There is an in-line filter installed near the pressure water pump. Clean
the filter once a month. Refer to 9.7.1 Hatches for the exact location of
the pump and filter.
7.4.7.5 Water Tank Vent Screen
A vent for the fresh water tank is installed through the boat’s hull above
the fresh water tank fill plate. The vent has a screen over its opening to
prevent dirt and insects from entering the fresh water tank. Clean the
vent screen once every six months or twice a season. Refer to 9.7.3 Thru-
Hull Fittings for the exact location of the fresh water tank vent.
7.4.8 Bilge System
Keeping the bilges clean is important. A dirty bilge leads to clogged bilge
pumps and unpleasant odors in the cabin. Keeping the bilges dry helps
reduce moisture in the cabin.
• Periodically inspect and clean each bilge pump’s strainer. The strain-
ers prevent dirt and debris from clogging the bilge pump intakes.
Refer to 9.7.4 Engine Room and 9.7.1 Hatches for the exact loca-
tion of the bilge pumps.
• Frequently check the operation of each bilge pump float switch to
ensure that it is operating properly. Clean the float switch so that it
can move freely.
• Clean the bilge pumps twice a season by wiping any dirt or oil from
their exterior surfaces.
