ROPELLERS
Your Sea Ray
®
has been equipped with a pro-
peller which our tests have shown to be the
best suited for general use under normal con-
ditions and load. In some situations you may
wish to change propellers to give your boat slightly dif-
ferent performance characteristics. In general, chang-
ing to a lower pitch propeller will increase acceleration
and load-pulling ability, but with a slight decrease in top
speed. Conversely, moving to a higher pitch propeller
will attain higher top speed with a light load, but will
sacrifice acceleration and power. Your particular require-
ments should be discussed with your Sea Ray
®
dealer.
Under no circumstances use a propeller which al-
lows the engine to operate at higher than recom-
mended RPM.

Standard Engines: Your boat is equipped
with a stern drive type propulsion system
also known as an inboard-outboard engine.
This type of propulsion system has the
engine secured to the hulls stringers at the aft end of
the hull. The drive unit, also called the lower unit
because it hangs below the hull, is the part of the
propulsion system that attaches to the outside of the
hull or transom. The drive unit pivots to steer the boat.
Inboard V-Drive Engines: This system incorporates
an inboard engine with an angled transmission that
allows the drive shaft to pass through the hull under
the engine.

The fresh water system is activated
by the WATER SYSTEM switch on the DC
distribution panel in the cabin. The switch
must be ON to operate the sink faucet or
showers.
To begin initial operation:
1. Fill the water tank from a source known to provide
safe, pure drinking water by removing the cap marked
WATER located on the deck.
2. Turn ON the WATER PUMP.
3. Open faucet or turn on shower wand.
Shut faucet/shower off as flow becomes steady and free
of air. Shutting off the faucet/shower will cause the pump
to shut off.
