4. Engine start procedures 

 

You have two engines on your vessel, one to operate the starboard prop and 

one for port.  You must switch on both engines to maneuver the vessel. Start 

one engine and then start the other. 

 

Make sure engines are in neutral. 

 

Turn the key to “start” to switch on the ignition (an audible alarm should 

sound). 

 

Turn the key further to the right to “start” and release once the engine 

has started. 

 

Once  the engines are  running check  you have water coming out of the 

exhausts which are located at the transom of the vessel.  

 

To stop the engines  press the stop buttons until the engines stop.  Turn 

the keys back to “off”.  

 

 

 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Should you hear an engine alarm during operation, check which light 

is on and immediately shut down the engine-

CALL HORIZON

 

 

 

All our yacht engines run with diesel fuel. There is a diesel filler cap 

on the transom which is clearly marked “DIESEL”…. 

DO NOT PUT 

WATER IN HERE.
