selected battery to the desired accessory. A circuit overload
will cause the accessory circuit breaker to "trip", i.e. the
breaker will automatically open the circuit and its handle will
flip to the "OFF" position. After correction of the fault, the
breaker may be manually indexed "ON".
4.2.1
STANDARD 12 VOLT D.C. SYSTEM
The Cabin Light switch activates power to the light branch
circuit. After it is energized the individual cabin lights, can
be turned on and off with their own switches. There are two
lights in the forward cabin, one in the head, one over the
folding table, two in the main cabin over the settee berths, one
in the, galley and one at the navigators station.
If the cabin lights start getting dim, this is fair warning that
the battery needs a charge or is getting old., Remember that you
have a battery whose charge and water level must be checked at
least once a month. If your boat is to be unused or stored for
extended periods or time, it is advisable to remove the
batteries and store them in a warm, dry location.
The Running Lights switch activates the red and green lensed
lights forward, and the white 12 point stern light aft.
When under sail at night, these are the only navigation lights
that should be shown, except for the shining of a white light on
the sails if you feel there is a real need for greater
recognition.
The Bow Light switch is for the 20 point white light on the mast
and is to be used in conjunction with the running lights when
under power or when motor sailing
The MastHead Light is a 32-point white light located on top of
the masthead that meets the international and inland rules for a
light to be used at anchor.
The Foredeck Light is mounted on the forward side of the mast
with the bow light on top and the single foredeck light shining
downward and forward. It illuminates the foredeck without
getting light into the skipper's eyes and is more "streamlined
than lights hanging down from the spreaders
