The functionality of all bilge pumps is to be checked regularly. The
intakes of the pumps are to be cleaned of dirt.
The bilge system is not designed for damage control. See Section
1.5 “Safety notes”.
The boat should be additionally equipped with a bucket on a rope or a bailer.
1.3. Fuel system
The fuel tanks with a totalcapacity of approx. 110 l are located underneath the bed of the aft
cabin(s). They can be filled through the filler neck marked “Fuel” or “Diesel” located on the
gunwale. To do so, unscrew the lid. Check whether the ventilation openings are free.
The fuel reaches the engine via a suction pipe and a preliminary fuel filter with a water separator.
Due to the short lines, the system consists of fire-resistant fuel hoses.
Please note that the return lines are always open to ensure the return to the tank.
Fuel refilling
The boat should be refuelled carefully so that no fuel spills onto the deck or into the water. Keep
an oil absorbing cloth at hand. Open the cap and insert the funnel or the fuel nozzle. Take care to
establish contact with the filler neck (earthing). Then start refuelling.
Refuel only from the engine manufacturer recommended kind of
fuel (diesel)!
Only refuel clean fuel. Check and cleanse the filter and the water
separator regularly.
Do not fill the fill line up to the deck fill plug. When you hear the sound of rising fuel stop
refuelling.
Tank closure in an emergency situation
In case of fuel line leakages or fire in the engine room, the tank can be shut off by means of a
valve on the tanks. The valve is located under the bed in the aft cabin on the starboard side.
1.4. Steering system
The boat can be steered by means of a tiller from the cockpit (option: steering wheel). The
mechanical link rotates the rudder to port and starboard side.
The steering system is accessed through the hatch in the rear part of the cockpit.
The post must have no clearance but should not need heavy
movements.
If there is a failure in the steering system, you can operate the rudder with the emergency tiller.
To steer using the emergency tiller, proceed as follows:
•
Open rudder spaces and check the steering mechanism.
•
Remove the cap for the emergency tiller on deck.
