14.3 Recommissioning
DO NOT OPERATE THE BOAT UNLESS IT IS COMPLETELY
ASSEMBLED. KEEP ALL FASTENERS TIGHT. KEEP
ADJUSTMENTS ACCORDING TO SPECIFICATIONS.
NOTICE:
It is important and recommended that the
fitting out procedure for the marine gear be
done by a qualified service person. Read the
engine owner’s manual for the recommended
procedure.
BEFORE LAUNCHING THE BOAT, MAKE SURE THE HULL DRAIN
PLUG IS INSTALLED.
MAKE SURE THE GENERATOR MUFFLER HAS NOT BEEN
DAMAGED DURING WINTER STORAGE AND THAT THE DRAIN
PLUG IS INSTALLED AND PROPERLY TIGHTENED. LOOSE
OR MISSING DRAIN PLUGS AND DAMAGED OR LEAKING
MUFFLERS OR EXHAUST HOSES WILL ALLOW CARBON
MONOXIDE, ENGINE GASES, AND WATER INTO THE BILGE
CREATING A POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS CONDITION.
NOTICE:
Not all mufflers are equipped with drain
plugs.
Reactivating The Boat After Storage:
• Charge and install the batteries.
• Install the drain plug in the hull. (Not all boats
are equipped with drain plugs)
• Check the engines for damage and
follow the manufacturer’s instructions for
recommissioning.
• Check the mounting bolts for the engines to
make sure they are tight.
• Perform all routine maintenance.
• Check all hose clamps for tightness.
• Pump the antifreeze from the fresh and raw
water systems and flush several times with
fresh water.
• Check and lubricate the steering system.
• Clean and wash the boat.
• Install all upholstery, cushions and canvas.
After Launching:
• Carefully check all water systems and the
engine bolts for leaks. Operate each system
one at a time checking for leaks and proper
operation.
• Check the bilge pump manual and automatic
switches.
• Check the bilge high water alarm automatic
switch.
• When each engine starts, check the cooling
system port below the engine cowling for a
strong stream of water. This ensures that the
cooling pump is operating.
• Carefully monitor the gauges and check for
leakage and abnormal noises.
• Operate the boat at slow speeds until the
engine temperature stabilizes and all systems
are operating normally.
• Start the optional generator and monitor the
exhaust port for a steady stream of water. It
may take 20 or 30 seconds for the muffler to
fill and for water to appear at the port. This
ensures that the cooling pump is operating.
Carefully inspect the generator and all hoses
for leaks, paying particular attention to
the muffler and exhaust hoses. Any leak,
no matter how minor must be corrected
immediately.
