Seawater Systems
Seacocks
A seacock is a valve that is used to manage the intake of seawater
through the hull and below the water line. Seacocks are controlled
by a 90º lever and are used on the seawater intake systems for the
optional air conditioning system and marine head (toilet) system.
Before using any of these systems, make sure that the system’s
seacock is Open and remains in the Open position until the
system is shut Off.
Seawater Strainers
Seawater strainers are used in water pick-up systems to filter incoming seawater. The typical layout is one strainer for
each of the following: Optional generator and optional air conditioning system.
Seawater strainers are located near the system’s seawater intake valves (seacocks). Check the seawater strainers
every time you use your boat for leaks and/or debris. If debris is found, clean the seawater strainer as follows:
1. Make sure the component/system that the strainer is connected to is turned Off.
2. Close the intake seacock that sends seawater to the strainer you are about to clean. The seacock must remain
Closed until the strainer is completely reassembled.
3. Take apart the seawater strainer.
4. Remove debris.
5. Reassemble the seawater strainer.
6. Open the seacock before turning On the component or system.

SYSTEM DAMAGE HAZARD!
•
Before using a seawater intake system, make sure that the system’s seacock is in the Open
position before the system is started and keep the seacock Open until the system is shut Off.
•
Close seacocks whenever the systems will not be used for long periods of time
!
CAUTI ON!
FLOODING HAZARD!
•
The seacock that sends seawater to the strainer must be CLOSED before disassembling
the seawater strainer to prevent the boat from taking on water through the seawater
strainer assembly.
•
Keep the seacock CLOSED until the seawater strainer is completely reassembled.
SYSTEM DAMAGE HAZARD!
•
After reassembling the seawater strainer, make sure that the seacock valve is OPEN before
using the component/system.
