42C System Operations - 53
PROPULSION SYSTEM
Propulsion of your 42C is accomplished
by two inboard engines, located within
the engine compartment. Depending on
the option you chose upon purchase from
your Silverton Dealer, the engines are ei-
ther fueled by gasoline or diesel fuel. Each
engine transmits its power to a separate
transmission, which rotates the attached
propeller shaft and the propeller. This
provides forward or reverse movement
of your yacht as selected from the shift
control unit located on the Port side of the
helm. The photo below shows the Throttle
and Shift Control at the Helm.
The transmissions are counter-rotating.
This is de
fi
ned as when in the forward
shift mode and viewing forward from aft,
the Port transmission rotates the Port pro-
peller counterclockwise and the Starboard
transmission rotates the Starboard propel-
ler clockwise.
Access to the engine compartment in your
42C
is provided through the Hatch in the
forward part of the cockpit.
The engine starting procedure is as fol-
lows:
Open and inspect the engine compart-
ment. Use your sense of smell to detect
the presence of fuel fumes.
Turn battery switch ON.
Operate the bilge blower motors for at
least
fi
ve (5) minutes. Check for air
fl
owing
out of the bilge exhaust vent. The location
of the Exhaust Blower Vent is shown in
the Bilge Ventilation System Pages of this
section of the Owner’s Manual. If you feel
air
fl
owing from the exhaust vent, the bilge
blower motor is operating properly.
Check the bilge water level. If it appears
above normal, turn ON the bilge pump(s)
and remove the water. Determine the
source of the excess water and repair, if
necessary, before starting the engines.
Check the bilge for the presence of any
oil. Determine the source of the oil and
repair, if necessary, before starting the
engines.
Open both engine seawater intake
valves (The location of these valves are
shown on the Mechanical Layout in the
Schematics Section of this Owner’s Manu-
al). The valves are open when the handles
are parallel to the valve body.
