Raw Water System
system during normal operation. To supply water
to the baitwell using the high speed pickup, make
sure the seacock valve is open and run the boat
at a speed above 15 miles per hour. Water will
circulate through the baitwell and out the overflow.
To drain the baitwell, turn off the baitwell pump
and remove the overflow tube from the drain fit -
ting. When the baitwell has completely drained,
use the washdown hose to flush the baitwell and
drain of debris.
The baitwell seacock valve should be closed when-
ever the baitwell is not in use. This will prevent
water from entering the baitwell while the boat
is cruising.
Notice:
Do not use the baitwell as a dry storage
area when it is not in use. Seawater could
accidently be delivered to the baitwell from
the thru-hull fitting and damage equipment
stored there.
CAUTION
A RUPTURED RAW WATER INTAKE OR PRESSURE LINE COULD
CAUSE THE BOAT TO TAKE ON WATER. ALWAYS TURN THE
RAW WATER SYSTEMS OFF AND CLOSE THE THRU-VALVES
WHEN LEAVING THE BOAT UNATTENDED.
8.4 Raw Water System Maintenance
The following items should be done routinely to
help maintain your raw water system:
• Check hoses, particularly the seawater supply
lines, for signs of deterioration. Tighten
fittings or replace deteriorated hoses and
components as necessary.
• Periodically remove and clean the water
strainer located near the intake side of the
washdown pump. To clean the strainer, make
sure the Raw Water switch is off and close
the valve at the thru-hull fitting. Rotate the
strainer bowl counterclockwise to release it.
Remove and clean the screen with fresh water.
Lubricate the O-ring lightly with silicon or
Teflon grease and reinstall the strainer bowl.
• Spray pumps and thru-hull valves with a pro-
tective oil periodically.
Typical Raw Water Pump and Strainer
• The fishbox and baitwell should be drained and
cleaned after each use.
• Operate all seacock valves at least once a
month to keep them operating properly.
CAUTION
SHOULD A HOSE RUPTURE, TURN THE PUMP OFF IMMEDIATELY.
ALWAYS CLOSE THE THRU-HULL VALVE WHEN PERFORMING
MAINTENANCE ON A SEAWATER PUMP.
THE BATTERIES MUST BE PROPERLY CHARGED. OPERATING
ANY PUMPS FROM A BATTERY WITH A LOW CHARGE MAY LEAD
TO A PUMP FAILURE.
THE RAW WATER SYSTEM MUST BE PROPERLY WINTERIZED
PRIOR TO WINTER LAY-UP. SEE SECTION ON WINTERIZING.
