Trim Tab Switch

Located in the bottom side of the helm pod below the steering
wheel. This switch controls the trim tab planes located on the
transom of the boat. Please refer to Chapter 2 for detailed
information on the operation of the trim tab controls.

The following is a description of the accessories controlled
by the main accessory switch panel:

Horn

Activates the boat horn.

Engine Slow

Activates the circuit in the control system that automatically
slows the propellers for operating in marinas or other areas
where slow speed and no wake is required.

Blowers

This switch supplies electrical current to the blower that pro-
vides ventilation and cooling to the engine compartment while
operating the main engines or the generator.

Windlass Switch (Optional)

This switch controls the optional windlass which is mounted
to the deck directly above the rope locker. It is protected by a
circuit breaker of the type and rating recommended by the wind-
lass manufacturer that is located in the cabin breaker panel.

Spreader Lights (Optional)

Activates the 12-volt spreader lights that illuminate the cock-
pit.

Cockpit Lights

Activates the lights that illuminate the cockpit area.

Anchor/Running Lights

The switch is a three-position switch.  The middle position is
“OFF.”  Moving the switch in one direction will activate the
navigation lights.  Moving  the switch in the opposite direction
activates the anchor light.

Battery Parallel

Activate the circuit that will connect both engine starting bat-
tery banks in parallel for extra battery power while starting the
engines. When the switch is pressed, a relay is engaged that
connects both engine starting battery banks, when the switch
is released, the relay is deactivated and the battery banks are
isolated.

Electronics

Activates the circuit for the electronics.

Fishbox Pump Out

This switch activates the macerator pump that pumps out the
ﬁshbox. It is a momentary switch because the pump can only
run dry for a few seconds and must be turned off as soon as
the pumping is complete. The pump is protected by a circuit
breaker in the cabin breaker panel.

Bilge Pump Fwd

Activates the forward bilge pump which is installed in the bilge
below the cabin ﬂoor. The pump moves water out through the
thru-hull ﬁtting in the hull. To start the pump manually, place
the switch in the “ON” position.

Bilge Pump Mid

Activates the forward bilge pump which is installed in the en-
gine compartment bilge. The pump moves water out through
the thru-hull ﬁtting in the hull. To start the pump manually,
place the switch in the “ON” position.

Bilge Pump Aft

Activates the stern  bilge pump which is installed in the rear
center of the bilge.  The pump moves water out through the
thru-hull ﬁtting in the hull.  To start the pump manually, put
the switch in the “ON” position.

Note: The bilge pumps will start automatically when

there is sufﬁcient water in the bilge to activate the
ﬂoat switch or engage the fully automatic pumps.
The ﬂoat switch and automatic pumps are pro-
tected by breakers located in the battery switch
panel and are always supplied current when the
batteries are connected.

Additional Accessory Switch Panels:

Additional switch panels are located in various locations in
the cockpit. Most of these panels are equipped with a circuit
breaker for each switch. The following is a description of
additional panels that may be on your Albemarle and the ac-
cessories they control:

Cockpit Switch Panel
Washdown

Located in the cockpit switch panel next to the ﬂybridge lad-
der.  Supplies 12-volt electrical current to the raw water pump
pressure  switch  located  on  the  pump.   The  pressure  switch
automatically  controls  the  water  pump  when  the  system  is
activated and properly primed.  It is protected by the circuit
breaker in the panel and an automatically resetting breaker on
the pump motor or an in-line fuse near the pump.
