Storage
Long periods of storage and/or non - use, common to boats, create unique problems. When preparing
to store a boat for extended periods, disconnect the fuel line. Most portable fuel tanks have closable
vents. Close the vent while in storage to prevent air from entering the tank.
A partially full tank is not recommended because the void space above the fuel allows air movement
that can bring in water through condensation as the air temperature moves up and down. This
condensation could potentially become a problem.
REFER TO THE ENGINE MANUFACTURER’S MANUAL IN YOUR OWNER’S MANUAL PACKAGE FOR
COMPLETE INSTRUCTIONS AND WARRANTY INFORMATION.
2. Bilge Pump
Your vessel is equipped with a single bilge pump located in the aft section of the boat. Access to the
aft bilge pump is via the motorwell access plate. The aft bilge pump is rated at 500 GPH, and is
activated automatically by a built in mercury free float switch when the water in the bilge reaches a
predetermined level. You can also manually operate the bilge pump at the console by pressing the
bilge pump switch at the helm.
Inspect the bilge pump intakes and keep them free of dirt or material which may impede the flow of
water through the pump. To clean the pump strainer, depress the lock tabs on both sides of the pump
and lift the pump motor.
If water does not come out of the discharge hose:
Do not obstruct or modify the ventilation system.
