shore power cord for A C Load Group 1. With a
shore power cord attached to A C power hookup
#1 flip the transfer switch to be able to r un
selected equipment from Load Group 2. Be care-
ful not to exceed 30 amps on one pow er cord.
NOTE: Exceeding 30 amps on one pow er cord will
cause the main ser vice breaker to trip. If the main
breaker trips, shut off equipment to reduce the
load before resetting the main ser vice breaker.
SHORE POWER
Your boat has a single male receptacle outside
on the deck for shore pow er connection (two
receptacles if you have air conditioning).
Before you connect your boat to shore pow er, turn
off the main cabin circuit break ers. Attach the
shore power cord to the boat fir st and tur n clock-
wise to lock. Thread the locking ring on the cord
to secure it to the receptacle. Connecting the cord
to the boat fir st will prevent dropping a “hot” cord
into the water. (When you lea ve the dock, remo ve
the cord from the dockside shore outlet fir st.) If
you have any questions, contact your dealer .
Make sure the dockside shore pow er breaker is
OFF; then plug in the cord. T urn the dockside
shore power breaker on. Immediately check the
polarity lights on the main electrical panel in the
boat. If the REVERSED POLARITY light on the
panel illuminates, do not turn on the main cabin
breaker . Turn off the dockside shore pow er
breaker and disconnect your shore pow er cord.
Inform the marina manager of the problem. If
you have any questions, contact your dealer .
Important: Some equipment will not wor k or
may be damaged if polarity is re versed. Damage
caused by reversed polarity is not co vered under
your warranty. Be sure polarity is cor rect when
you connect your boat to shore pow er.
An AC circuit ma y overload if the cur rent draw
(amperage) of the accessories in use exceeds
the capacity of the load group. F or each load
group, an AC amp indicator in the main electrical
panel indicates the amperage dra w. If a circuit
overloads, turning off one or more accessories
may be necessar y while you operate another .
GENERATOR
The optional onboard generator pro vides AC
power to your boat’ s electrical system. If your
boat has a generator , it is mounted in the
engine compar tment.
Accidental starting of the generator can cause
severe personal injury or death. Stop generator
and disable b y disconnecting batter y cables
(negative [–] cable fir st) when maintenance or
repairs are made to the engine, controls, or
generator. Do not disconnect cables if gas
fumes are present.
Note: Follow all generator instr uctions in the
operator’s manual. The manual includes
detailed information on specifications and pro-
cedures for safe operation, maintenance, and
winterizing. It also explains how you can obtain
service for the generator , if required. The man-
ual is in your owner’ s packet.
Follow these procedures to operate the generator :
1. Run bilge blow er for five minutes before
starting generator.
2. Make sure sea water intake valve (seacock)
for the generator is open. Seacock must
remain open at all times when generator is
operating. Seawater strainer must be free of
debris to pre vent clogging intak e. Inspect
seawater strainer frequently .
4-8
To prevent damage to electrical sys-
tem, never operate shore power
system at less than 105 volts.
CAUTION
!
Turn on the bilge blower for at least 5
minutes before starting an inboard
engine or generator, to eliminate gaso-
line fumes in the bilge. Open the bilge
hatch cover during that time and smell
for fumes. DO NOT start engine or gen-
erator if gasoline fumes are present. Do
not operate blower while fueling boat.
WARNING
!
Generator or hull exhaust from other
vessels while either docked or
anchored can emit poisonous carbon
monoxide gas and cause excessive
accumulation within the cabin and
cockpit areas of your boat. See Figure
2.7. Be alert for generator exhaust from
other vessels alongside your boat.
