Saltwater Pump
Intake Valve
GAS SHOCKS AND WASHDOWN
Salt Water Washdown
Salt water washdown is standard on the 277 CC model. The pump is located in the port bilge and is accessible through the flip
up seat opening. To operate, hook a hose to the salt water receptacle located by the transom gate above the port deck drain.
Flip the switch labeled “Saltwater Washdown”. The pump will pressurize the system with salt water. Once the system is
pressurized, the pump will shut itself off with an internal pressure switch and will switch itself back on as you demand water.
There is also a washdown fitting installed in the anchor hatch if equipped with windlass option (see pg. 31) to wash off the
anchor rode. Be careful to only spray gel-coated fiberglass surfaces with saltwater and avoid all other areas. Always rinse your
boat with freshwater as soon as you return to the dock or home if the boat is being trailered.
Washdown Fitting
Console/ Head Access
Located at the top on the inside of the console/head access door is a locking gas shock that aides in opening the door and
keeping the door open once the shock is fully extended. With the door fully opened, it can only be closed by releasing the
pressure of the metal sleeve on the door side against the shock that is mounted to the console. To do this, open the door to it’s
fullest open position, thereby allowing the door slide sleeve to be moved so that it will slide overtop of the gas shock as the door
closes. Failure to release this locking mechanism while attempting to close the door will lead to the gas shock failing, or
damage to the mounting brackets.
