Prepare the generator and air conditioners (if so
equipped) for storage. Refer to the generator manual
and the air conditioner manual, included with your
Owner’s Packet, for the proper winterization and
storage procedures.
Draining Your Yacht
Your yacht has drain plugs for draining water from
the bilge (See
Mechanical Layout in the Schematics
Section of this Owner’s Manual, which illustrates the
location of the garboard drain plugs). Some compart-
ments in the bilge may not drain completely due to
the position of the yacht. Pump these compartments
out with a portable pump and then use a sponge to
remove all remaining water.
The procedure for draining and winterizing the fresh
water system is as follows:
Drain the fresh water supply tank by opening the
hot and cold faucets in the galley for ten (10) minute
intervals until the tank is empty.
Open all faucets in the galley, both showers, both
head sinks, and the exterior cockpit shower.
Remove the fresh water fi lter bowl and strainer.
Clean, dry and replace strainer bowl.
Drain the water heater, remove the cold water
intake hose and hot water output hose, and hook
them together.
Remove the inlet hose from the fresh water tank
(See Mechanical Layout in the Schematics Section
of this Owner’s Manual, which illustrates the location
of the fresh water tank) and insert it into a container
of non-toxic, fresh water anti-freeze. Turn the fresh
water pump ON and starting at the farthest faucet
from the pump, turn ON all faucets until the anti-
freeze
fl ows out.
Turn OFF the fresh water pump and reconnect the
inlet hose to the fresh water tank.
Pour non-toxic anti-freeze into all sink and shower
drains until the liquid is discharged overboard.
Alternate procedure for draining and winterizing the
fresh water system is as follows:
Drain all water from the fresh water tank.
Drain all water from the water heater.
Remove hose from the input side of the fresh water
pump and allow to completely drain.
Remove hose from the output side of the fresh
water pump and turn ON all faucets.
Blow compressed air (15-20 lbs. psi) through the
output hose until all water stops fl owing from the
faucets.
Leave water lines at the fresh water pump
disconnected to allow any trapped water vapor to
drain and evaporate.
The procedure for draining and winterizing the marine
sanitation system is as follows:
Drain all water lines into the waste holding tank.
Continue to fl ush fresh water into the waste holding
tank and pump out into an approved waste facility
until thoroughly clean.
Add non-toxic, freshwater anti-freeze to the waste
holding tank by fl ushing through the toilet.
Run the macerator pump to allow anti-freeze to fl ow
through the pump and the input/output lines.
Remove the drain plug from the macerator seacock
while the valve is closed and allow the line to drain.
Replace the drain plug.
Thoroughly clean the toilet and leave the bowl
exposed to prevent mildew.
Remove all seacock and strainer drain plugs to
prevent from freezing. Close all seacocks.
