6.3 Livewell
Standard Livewell
Sea water is provided to the standard livewell by a 12-volt
circulation pump. Each pump is designed to carry a constant
flow of water to the livewell. The pump does not have a pres-
sure sensor and is activated by the Aerator switch in the 12-
volt switch panel. There is also a light in the livewell that is
activated by the Livewell Light switch in the helm switch panel.
An overflow thru-hull built into the livewell automatically
controls the water level in the livewell. Always turn the
pump off at the switch panel when the livewell is not in use.
To fill the livewell, insert the plug into the drain fitting at the
bottom of the livewell. Make sure the sea cock is open. Then
activate the Aerator switch. When the water level reaches
the overflow, it will begin to circulate.
The livewell raw water intake is equipped with a scoop that
will supply water to the livewell if the pump should fail and
helps prime the system during normal operation. To supply
water to the livewell using the scoop, make sure the sea cock
valve is open and run the boat at a speed above 15 miles
per hour. Water will circulate through the livewell and out
the overflow.
To drain the livewell, turn off the livewell pump and remove
the plug in the drain fitting at the bottom of the livewell.
When the livewell has completely drained, use the washdown
hose to flush the livewell and drain of debris.
The livewell sea cock valve should be closed whenever the
livewell is not in use. This will prevent water from entering
the livewell while the boat is cruising. Make sure the valve is
opened before operating the raw water washdown.
6.4 Raw Water System Maintenance
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 strainer for the washdown
pump, as needed. Refer to the Fresh Water System
maintenance section for instructions on cleaning the pump
strainer.
• Spray pumps and thru-hull valves with a protective oil
periodically.
• The fishboxes and livewells should be drained and cleaned
after each use.
