The system components are accessed through hatches on deck, or in the cabin. Only open
the service-access hatches when a visual check is needed, or when a qualified technician can
support in maintenance and service.
WARNING! Risk of personal injury. Never open the high-voltage battery hatch. If smoke or
smell indicates a fire from this area, immediately evacuate the boat.

Draining system
The draining system ensures that any water that enters the boat from waves, splashes, or rain
will drain. A well-functioning draining system is essential to maintain the stability and buoyancy
of the boat. Excess water is pumped out with the bilge pumps. The bilge pump drain outlets are
through-hull fittings and should be kept clear from debris.
The deck angle and its gullies allow for natural overflow. Water accumulated around the skylight is
drained through a built-in hose leading to the anchor box.
Excess water in the anchor box is drained through an outlet on the starboard side of the boat.
