Static Water Line
P0015635
P0015636
Static water line is a measurement of the water level
in the boat engine's exhaust system. The exhaust
passages of the drive are open to the water
surrounding the boat
A . When the engine is not
running, the water level in the exhaust system will
settle at the same level as the surrounding water
B . If
this water level is too high, water will enter the engine
through the exhaust manifolds; this is called water
ingestion.
The static water line should be correct when you
purchase a new boat. Your boat was designed and
constructed so that, under normal load and use
conditions, the water level would not be high enough
for water to enter the engine. This is accomplished with
exhaust riser height and the height of the engine in the
hull. If you add weight to your boat, the boat and engine
exhaust will sit lower in the water. This raises the water
level in the exhaust. If you add too much weight, the
water level will be high enough to allow water
ingestion.
NOTICE! Water ingestion damage from over-loading
is not covered by warranty.
Consider the static water line of your boat before
adding equipment such as generators, appliances,
coolers and other heavy items. Do not store un-needed
gear on your boat. Overloading with passengers also
causes problems with the static water line. Load
distribution, especially when concentrated in the stern
of the boat, can raise the static water line.
NOTICE! Never exceed the weight limit posted by the
boat manufacturer. Never overload the stern of the
boat as this may cause the engine to be lowered below
the minimum safe static water line height.
If you have added weight to your boat and suspect
there may be problems with the static water line,
perform the following test before operating the boat.
