Open Closed
7. Turn the Accessory Battery master disconnect switch to the “ON” position.
8. On the Safety Breaker Panel, switch the Main - One circuit breaker “ON.”
Do not operate the washdown pump when the seacock that supplies
seawater to the washdown system is closed. Operating the pump with no
seawater can damage it.
9. On the DC Control Center, switch the System DC Main circuit breaker
“ON,” then switch the Washdown Pump circuit breaker “ON.” This activates
the boat’s raw water washdown pump.
10. The raw water washdown pump, when activated, creates pressure in the
raw water washdown system. When the hose nozzle is closed, water pressure
within the system increases to a predetermined point at which the pump
automatically shuts off. When the hose nozzle is open, releasing water from
the system, the pressure in the system decreases. When the pressure decreases
to a predetermined point, the pump automatically turns on and increases
the pressure. This ensures a steady flow of water any time you use the raw
water washdown.
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 you 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.
