Proper control of MasterCraft boats extends
beyond the steering wheel. Each boat is equipped
with multiple gauges that provide information to
guide the operator in maintaining control. There
are also a variety of switches and buttons within
the boat that control various functions from com-
fort to watersports enhancement to safety-re-
lated features. It is important for the boat owner
and/or operator to become familiar with all gaug-
es and switches in the boat, the functionality of
each, and how to respond to alarms and warnings
that the instrument panel may provide.
In the Guide to Individual Models section of
this Owner’s Manual is a listing of the locations
of gauges and switches for the various model
instrument panels. Operators should match up
these listings with the actual panel. However,
MasterCraft was undertaking a significant re-de -
sign of the instrument panels and some gauges
and switches may be located in positions other
than those identified in the listing. Prior to boat -
ing, owners and operators should also review
and understand the following section regarding
the boat’s electrical components and operations
through the battery or batteries, as well as the
circuit breaker system. A thorough understanding
of these systems is critical to avoiding potential is-
sues that may arise during an outing.
MasterCraft
strongly recommends reviewing all instrumen-
tation with your authorized MasterCraft dealer
prior to operating the boat for the first time,
and consulting with the dealer at any time an
operator is uncertain about instrumentation lo-
cations or operations!
The following is an explanation of the func-
tionality of the gauges and switches that are listed
for the various models.
Variations in Gauges and Switches
Please note that not every gauge or switch ex-
plained in this Owner’s Manual is found on every
model. Some equipment is optional and not every
option is available on all models of MasterCraft
boats.
Also, MasterCraft utilizes a variety of gauge
and switch styles from the gauges or switches
pictured in this Owners Manual. These differ -
ences between the various styles of gauges and
switches are not in functionality. If a boat is
equipped with a gauge or switch that is labeled
as described above, it will operate in the same
fashion as the description even if its appearance
is different, as the appearance changes periodi -
cally.
If the owner and/or operators are uncertain
about a gauge’s or switch’s purpose, do not oper-
ate the boat until consulting with an authorized
MasterCraft dealer. Some gauges monitor infor-
mation that is critical to safe and long-term use of
the boat. Some switches can affect maneuverabil -
ity, as well as operations that impact long-term
use of the boat.
Introduction
Controls Common
to Most Models
Manual and Automatic
Bilge Pump Switch
(All Models)
The bilge pumps on all V-drive models will be in the au-
tomatic mode when the ignition key is turned ON. Some
models may have two (2) switches, one for the forward
bilge and one for the aft. In these instances, the switches
will be marked. The manual and automatic bilge discharge
system is never completely off. When in the automatic (de -
fault) position, a sensor alerts the system to discharge wa-
ter from the bilge area. Boat operators are advised to leave the switch in the automatic posi-
tion, unless there appears to be excess water in the bilge. In that event, the bilge pump can
be manually activated by turning the bilge pump switch to the manual ON position. Return
the switch to the automatic position when finished emptying the bilge. Leaving the switch in
manual mode can result in damage to the pump and may not be covered by warranty!
Blower Switch
(All Models)
A two-position switch activates the engine box ventilation
blower. Push the top half of the switch to turn the blower
ON.
Note: The blower must operate for a minimum of four (4)
minutes before starting the engine at any time. The blower
must also be operated during idle and slow-speed running,
but is not necessary during cruising speed.
To prevent a possible explosion, operate the blower
for at least four (4) minutes before starting the engine and always when at idle or
slow-running speed. Explosive gasoline and/or battery fumes may be present in
the engine compartment. Failure to operate the blower as instructed may cause
improper ventilation of the boat engine and bilge areas, and fuel vapors can accu -
mulate in this area, causing a fire or explosion which may result in serious injury
or death!
Circuit Breakers
(All Models)
All major boat circuits are protected from shorting and overload by re-settable circuit break-
ers. If a problem develops with one of the following circuits, switch OFF the circuit and wait
for approximately one (1) minute. Then fully push the appropriate breaker button and switch
ON the circuit. If the circuit continues to trip, there is a problem somewhere that must be
attended to immediately. See your authorized MasterCraft service department to resolve
this matter.
