After showering, let the cold water flow for a period of time to flush the drainage system of soap residue. The
sump has a removable cover to allow the system to be inspected and serviced. It is essential that the sump system
by inspected periodically and any accumulated debris removed.
ROPE LOCKER DRAINS
The rope locker drains overboard through a special drain fitting located in the hull side at the bottom of the
rope locker. It is important to inspect the drain frequently to remove any accumulated debris.
5.6 Plumbing System Maintenance
WATER SYSTEMS
Information supplied with water system components, by the equipment manufacturers, is included with this
manual. Refer to this information for additional operation and service data.
The following items should be done routinely to maintain your fresh water system:
• Remove the filter screens from the faucet spouts and eliminate any accumulation of debris. A build-up
of debris can cause the pump to cycle excessively.
• The fresh water system is equipped with a strainer located on the intake line near the pump. This should
be checked at least annually and cleaned as necessary.
• Periodically remove the lid on the shower sump assembly located under the aft berth. Clean debris from
the sump and flush with clean water. Activate the float switch to test the pump.
• Periodically spray the pumps and metal components with a metal protector.
• The batteries must be properly maintained and charged. Operating the pressure pump from a battery with
a low charge could lead to pump failure.
• Add a commercially available potable water conditioner to the water tank to keep it fresh.
THE FRESH WATER SYSTEM SWITCH SHOULD BE PLACED IN THE “OFF” POSITION
WHENEVER LEAVING THE BOAT UNATTENDED OR WHEN THE FRESH WATER SYS-
TEM IS NOT IN USE.
The following items should be done routinely to help maintain your raw water system:
• Check hoses, particularly the sea water supply lines, for signs of deterioration.
• Remove and clean the sea water strainers for the livewell, air conditioner and washdown pump, as needed.
• Spray pumps and thru-hull valves with a protective oil periodically.
• The fishboxes and livewells should be drained and cleaned after each use.
• Operate all thru-hull valves at least once a month to keep them operating properly.
