Forward bilge pump
and float switch are
installed behind the aft
head wall
Aft bilge pump and float
switch are located in the
aft bilge area
Second, turn the bilge pump off at the instrument panel and check the bilge pump float switch. Each pump is
equipped with an automatic float switch (white box) that is mounted next to the bilge pump. As long as your boat
is equipped with an operable battery, each pump will operate independently when water is present in the area.
Each float switch is equipped with two plastic knobs located on either side of the switch. Turn either one of the
knobs to raise the float to engage the bilge pump. If the pump comes on, the automatic float is operating
properly. It is recommended that you check the operation of each automatic float switch monthly.
If for some reason the indicator light on your bilge pump switch comes on, check your bilge for water. It is not
uncommon for rain water or water from washing your boat to accumulate in the bilge. Standing water will activate
the automatic float that is connected to the bilge pump. If you notice your pump running frequently during your
day on the water, you should check the thru hull fittings, hose connections, etc. for any possible leaks.
Keep the bilge area clean and free from debris that could clog ports or inhibit float movement. Also, keep the
battery (starboard) that provides power to the bilge pump charged. If the battery is not charged and flooding
occurs, the boat could swamp causing damage and possible loss of life or property.
Fish Boxes with Macerator Pump
Your boat is equipped with 2 aft fish boxes.
The port and starboard fish
boxes in the aft cockpit area have a combined capacity of 74 gallons (37
gallons each). They are both plumbed to a fish box macerator pump that
is mounted on the outside of the port aft stringer. The fish box pump is
accessible by removing the dual battery switch and tackle box
compartment located at the port aft corner of the transom.
The fish box macerator pump operates on a 2-way rocker switch (labeled
fish box) that is located on the switch panel.
To operate the fish box macerator pump, fill either of the aft fish boxes with water. Then, depress the fish box
switch to the on position. The water and fish particles will be pumped out of the tubs and then overboard via the
fish box thru hulls on the side of the boat. When you are finished emptying the fish boxes, place the fish box
switch in the aft position to turn off the fish box macerator pump.
Note: The 2 storage boxes on the forward casting deck are for wet/dry storage only and are not
connected to the fishbox macerator pump. These 2 casting deck storage boxes are plumbed to
gravity drain overboard via thru hulls.
Baitwell Pump
The baitwell switch at the helm controls the baitwell pump, which is mounted on a seacock in the bilge. The pump
is accessible via the bilge hatch located just forward of the transom. Raw water for the baitwell tub comes
through the seacock, to the baitwell pump and then to the baitwell tub.
Before turning the pump on from the helm, check to be sure that the seacock is open. The seacock is wide open
when the yellow seacock lever is vertical to the bottom of the hull. When the yellow seacock lever is horizontal to
the bottom of the hull, the seacock is closed. The seacock should remain closed when the baitwell pump is not in
use.
