WASTE WATER (HEAD)
SYSTEM
Do not flush into a full holding tank.
Attempting to flush the head when the tank
is full could result in damage to the waste
system.
The waste tank level indicator shows the level of
the water in the waste tank. Refer to Waste
Water Level Indicator, in Section 4.
To clear the tank of waste water, you will need to
use the dockside pump-out services provided at
marinas. Hook a suction hose to the pump-out
deck fitting marked WASTE (Refer to
Specifications in Section 3) and to the dockside
pump. The marina will handle the proper disposal
of the waste and may charge for this service.
It is strongly recommended that you regularly add
chemicals to your waste tank by flushing it
through the head to control odor and break down
the waste. Follow the waste tank manufacturer’s
recommendations on chemical use.
VacuFlush ® —The VacuFlush head system is
active when the 12 VDC system is energized and
the switch marked HEAD PUMP is turned ON.
Vacuum energy is maintained in the system at all
times. When the toilet is flushed, the vacuum
energy stored in the system is released instantly
clearing the bowl of waste. A vacuum pump will
operate automatically every so often to recharge
the vacuum. Please refer to the head unit
operator’s manual in your Owner Information
Binder for additional information.
Macerator Discharge Pump—The optional
macerator system allows the discharging of waste
water directly overboard through a seacock. The
seacock’s valve must be opened to allow
discharge of the waste, but the switch operates
independently of the Y-valve’s position. For
additional operating information, refer to the
macerator operator’s manual supplied with your
Formula boat.
CAUTION
Overboard discharge of waste water is
prohibited in many areas. It is your
responsibility to comply with local
regulations regarding the discharge of
waste. You could be fined if your boat has
an operable overboard discharge system.
Removing the handle of the seacock while
in closed position, or disabling the system
by other means may be required to avoid a
fine.
RAW WATER SYSTEM
Your Formula boat may have as many as two
accessory components (generator and air
conditioning) - in addition to the engines - with
complete raw water systems.
Each raw water system will have its own thru-hull
water intake, seacock and strainer. The seacock
is very important. It protects the boat from sinking
if a hose or fitting should fail. It is important to
close any seacock not in use.
Waste water from the generator is routed with the
generator’s exhaust system. Waste water from the
air conditioning unit is directed overboard through
a drain port in the hull.
Your engines have their own raw water system for
cooling. Refer to the propulsion unit operator’s
manual for engine cooling information.
AUTOMATIC FIRE
EXTINGUISHER SYSTEM
A fixed automatic fire extinguisher that uses FE-
241 (FM-200 for European requirements) as an
extinguishing agent is mounted on the engine
compartment forward bulkhead. The extinguisher
is activated when the heat sensitive head reaches
a predetermined temperature. The extinguisher
discharges and saturates the engine compartment,
smothering the fire.
When the fire extinguisher discharge
occurs, turn OFF all engines, bilge blowers
and electrical system components. Refrain
from opening the engine compartment
hatch, as the introduction of oxygen could
accelerate any fire present there.
