OPTIONAL FEATURES

Optional Stereo System With CD

A AM-FM Stereo CD with four speakers is offered as an option on the 217 CC. The 217 stereo unit is mounted inside the 
console on the aft bulkhead. This option comes with a stereo remote mounted on the face of the console, right of the helm, 
and above the cup holder.

Optional Fresh Water Shower

The fresh water tank on your 217 CC can be filled at the cap labeled “WATER”, on the back port corner near the transom. The 

shower nozzle is on the port aft bulkhead. To pressurize the system, flip the switch labeled “FRESHWATER” on the switch 

panel at the helm. You can leave this switch in the ON position while the boat is in use. The pump has an internal pressure 

switch that allows the pump to turn on and off as needed. 

In the colder months of the year, it’s advisable to drain the fresh water system and winterize by adding a non-toxic antifreeze to 

the system. Run the antifreeze through the system by opening up the spray in the shower nozzle until antifreeze is delivered 

through the showerhead. 

Command Link Gauges 

Command Link gauges are an option for the 217 center console and are an upgrade from the standard digital gauges. 

Command Link gauges allow access to more information. Displays are user-selectable so you can choose the functions 

displayed on each gauge and what order. Speed data can be displayed from a pitot tube, Triducer, or NMEA protocol GPS unit
