accident and need to be reset in case power is lost and there appears to be nothing wrong with the
breakers on the salon panels. If the doors are opened in the front port bedroom directly behind the salon
breaker panels, several of these breakers will be seen. In case of problems that cannot be fixed using
breakers on the salon breaker panels, these should be checked to make sure they have not tripped, and
reset if they have. In the port engine well at the rear outside hull wall back of the generator there is a
110V breaker that occasionally trips when the generator is operating or when shore power electrical
current drain is exceeded and needs to be reset.
Electronics
VFH radios
There are two VHF radios, one on the fly bridge and one at the salon nav station. Both are turned on by
the VHF breaker on the 12V DC panel. Please refer to the radio owner’s manual for operating
instructions.
Radar
The radar is connected only to the port side Raymarine C120 terminal on the fly bridge, and is
controlled from that terminal.
Please refer to the Raymarine owners’ manual for operating instructions.
Depth sounders
Water depth is indicated on a digital display at the salon nav station and on the starboard C120 terminal
on the flybridge when the Raymarine electronics are turned on.
Electronic GPS Charts
A GPS receiver is connected to both C120 terminals on the fly bridge and to the C120 terminal at the
salon nav station. However detailed electronic navigation charts are only available on the starboard
C120 terminal on the fly bridge. These detailed charts cover the region from Olympia Washington to
the northern tip of Vancouver Island. Please refer to the Raymarine owners’ manual for operating
instructions.
Do not remove or change the electronic chart memory cards in the C120 terminal.
Occasionally the alarm will sound and indicate that the GPS has lost its fix. This is caused by a
flaw in the Raymarine GPS unit and is easily fixed by going to the DC panel and turning off the
Autopilot breaker, then turning it back on.
Autopilot
The boat is equipped with an autopilot with controls at the fly bridge and the salon nav station. Pushing
on the “Auto” button turns on the autopilot and maintains the boat direction at that when the button was
pushed. Pushing on the + or – buttons on the fly bridge will alter course accordingly, and turning the
