The cylinder is connected to the tiller tie rod. Extending and retract-
ing the cylinder moves the rudders, enabling you to steer the boat.
With hydraulic steering, the effort needed to turn the helm remains
the same regardless of the boat’s speed.
For the hydraulic steering system to operate properly, it must have an
adequate supply of hydraulic fluid and sufficient pressure within the
hydraulic pump and lines. Refer to the OEM information for details on
operating and maintaining the steering system.
5.8 Preparing for Cruising
Follow the steps below to safely fuel your boat and operate its engines.
5.8.1 Fueling
1. Make sure that your boat is securely moored.
2. Close all portlights, windows, hatches, and doors.
3. Turn “OFF” all devices that could create a spark, including fans,
motors, the galley range, and the generator.
4. Extinguish all open flames and smoking material, such as cigarettes,
on the boat and in the area around the fuel dock.
5. Turn all battery master disconnect switches to the “OFF” position.
6. Have all guests and passengers leave the boat. Only the fuel han-
dlers should be in the area.
7. Estimate the amount of fuel you wish to take on.
8. Select the fuel tank you wish to fuel first.
9. Remove the appropriate fuel fill deck plate (GAS or DIESEL) using
the cap removal tool supplied with your boat. The deck plates are
located on top of the weatherboards on either side of the cockpit.
Refer to 9.7.2 Deck Plates for the exact locations of these plates.
While fueling, keep the fuel hose nozzle in constant contact with the
metal fuel fill fitting. This is a safeguard against static electricity that
could ignite any fuel vapor and cause an explosion.
