Exterior Equipment
A folding footrest is located on the seat base. Two
manual slide latches on each side of the footrest
secure it in the closed position. To use the footrest,
slide the latches inboard to release them. Then
rotate the footrest down. To stow the footrest,
rotate it up against the seat base and slide the
latches to secure the footrest. Always make sure
the footrest is secured with the latches when it is
folded in the stowed position.
If your boat is equipped with an optional upper
control station, the footrest, seat and top of the
mezzanine are used as steps to access the upper
station ladder from the cockpit.
Cooler/Freezer
The bench seat cushion is mounted to a hatch that
provides access to a large compartment/cooler
below the lounge that can be used for dunnage or
as a cooler. The compartment drains by gravity
to thru-hull fittings in the hull.
The hatch is equipped with gas hatch springs that
hold the hatch in the open or closed position. The
optional refrigerator/freezer cooling unit is located
below the mezzanine and powered by the AC
electrical system. Temperature is controlled by
a digital monitor located in the cabin AC panel.
Temperature is displayed on the LED screen and
buttons on the panel allow for the adjustment of
the temperature inside each compartment.
Cockpit Air Conditioner
The cockpit air conditioning unit and optional
refrigeration units are mounted below the mezza-
nine. The compartment is accessed by removing
the storage compartment assemblies on each side
of the mezzanine. The air conditioner is powered
by the AC electrical system and equipped with
reverse cycle heat so it can be operated as a cool-
ing or heating unit.
To operate, make sure the thru-hull valve for the
air conditioning raw water supply pump, located
on the raw water manifold in the systems com-
partment, is on. Turn the HVAC Cockpit and HVAC
Pump breakers in the AC breaker panel on. The
air conditioning or heat then will be controlled by
the electronic control panel next to the aft facing
bench seat. When activated, water should con-
tinuously flow from the overboard thru-hull fitting
in the hull side.
The air conditioning system produces heat when it
is operated in reverse cycle mode. The ability of the
Bench Seat Footrest
Typical Cockpit Air Conditioner Control Panel
unit to produce heat is affected by the temperature
of the seawater. As the seawater temperature low-
ers, the unit’s ability to produce warm air decreases.
When the seawater temperature drops below 40-45
degrees, it will not be able to produce heat. You
should not operate the air conditioner to produce
heat when the water temperature is below 40 de-
grees.
The air conditioning unit creates condensation
that drips into the pan at the base of the unit.
A hose attached to the pan drains the water by
gravity to the drain sump system. It is normal
for some water to be in the pan whenever the air
conditioner has been used. The condensation pan
should be checked periodically to make sure it is
draining properly.
