MasterCraft offers significant standard and optional items to make the boating experience more enjoy-
able. Some of these items come with their own instructions and information from the original manufacturer.
In those instances, such as with the stereo equipment, the manual is included with the boat. In other in-
stances, some general information is provided in this section.
If, at any time, you are uncertain about the use or care of anything on the boat, never hesitate to contact
your authorized MasterCraft dealer for additional information and guidance.
Anchor and Windlass
Some models are equipped with anchors, and there will be a designated storage
area or stowage location on the boat. Check with your dealer if you are uncertain
about this area as it is important to keep the anchor stowed when it is not in use. In
some models, the anchor is used in concert with a windlass, or winch, particularly
in instances where the boat is expected to be used in deeper water. The windlass is
a powered winch to raise the anchor and line.
Comfort and Convenience

Improperly stored anchors and/or anchor
line that has been improperly re-wound
through the windlass system, may create
a hazardous situation. People on-board
can trip on improperly stored materials,
which can result in injury. Improperly
stored materials can also move too freely during boat operation and make contact with
individuals, again causing injury. Properly store all anchor and lines whether the boat is
in operation or not, unless the anchor and line are in use.
To lower the anchor when accompanied by a windlass system, leave the engine(s) running to provide
sufficient power. Raise the anchor door and remove any pins or lines securing the anchor in the bow roller.
Remove the hand control from the under-side of the door. Stand clear of the anchor and chain. Press the ON
button to enable the windlass. Press the DOWN button to lower the anchor.
The anchor, sometimes accompanied by a windlass, has been provided to assist boaters in remain-
ing in a chosen location. Note that use of the anchor system will not guarantee a properly anchored
boat or that the boat will remain in a stationary position. Environmental, bottom conditions, current
and tidal conditions must be taken into consideration when anchoring the boat. Only properly trained
operators should set the anchor for this system. Establishing a secure anchorage requires practice.
Damage to your boat may result due to improper anchoring techniques.
To raise the anchor when accompanied by a windlass system, start the engines to provide sufficient pow-
er. Raise the anchor locker door. Remove the hand control from the underside of the door. Stand clear of the
anchor and chain. Press the ON button to enable the system, and press the UP button to raise the anchor.
Properly stow the anchor and line.
Battery Charger
As a convenience, a battery charger is offered as an option. The charger is designed
to recharge the batteries and also to extend the battery’s life in applications where it is
stored for long periods of time. These are three-stage electronic chargers, completely
automatic, lightweight, and silent. Unlike most automotive chargers, this charger will
not boil off the electrolytes in properly installed and maintained batteries. The red and
green LED lights, which are mounted on the charger face, indicate when the unit is
recharging and maintaining the batteries.
Before charging a battery, do not operate the charger if the cables or an LED is
damaged. Be sure that all accessories are OFF. If the battery or batteries must be
removed from the product, always remove the grounded terminal from the battery
first. Be sure that the area around the battery is well ventilated while the battery is
