ATER

To operate the livewell, open the seacock with the livewell I.D. tag located beneath the center

lid in the aft berth. The 1100 gph (4164 lph) livewell pump is screwed directly into this seacock.
The livewell switch at the helm should be in the “on” position. Place the livewell standpipe in the
drain located at the bottom of the livewell. Screw it down until the black flange makes contact
with the flange on the drain fitting. Water will enter through a plenum along the side of the
livewell and be distributed through a series of holes arranged vertically along the plenum. The
water will rise to a depth even with the strainer on the standpipe and drain overboard. To evacuate
debris and bait waste from the bottom of the box while the livewell is in operation, unscrew the
standpipe approximately three turns to expose two 3/8” holes located in the threads of the
standpipe base. This will allow a small amount of water to escape through these holes and remove
any waste that has settled in the bottom of the livewell. See

System Layout” on page 8–29

REAKER

There is a 50 amp circuit breaker located in the panel beneath the battery select switches. This

is the main breaker protecting the wiring supplying power to the accessory switch panel. This
breaker may be manually tripped by moving the arm to the “off” position. If this breaker is
tripped, moving the arm back to the “on” position will reset it.

ICROWAVE

The shore power must be connected or the generator must be operating with load group 1

energized for the microwave to function. A foam block has been provided to protect the glass
platter inside the microwave when the boat is in motion. Ensure this block is in place when the
microwave is not in use — remove before operation. Refer to the microwave operation and
maintenance manual in your owner’s packet for specific instructions on the safe and proper use of
the microwave.

UTLETS

Current is provided to all outlets by the generator or shore power. Each outlet is ground fault

protected and switched individually at the AC panel. These outlets will operate any standard
household appliance (i.e. blender, coffee maker). However, the total combined amperage, in
addition to other AC accessories, must not overload the boat’s generator or shore power output.

N O T I C E

If the livewell seacock is left open and the pump is not on, the boat’s forward motion through the
water will gradually fill the box. To prevent this inadvertent filling, close the seacock when the
livewell is not in use.

Under certain conditions, placing the outboard engines in reverse will ventilate the water under
the boat and create an air lock in the livewell pump. To prevent this situation from occurring, it is
recommended the livewell be turned off prior to any high RPM or continuous reverse operation.
If the livewell pump becomes air-locked, correct this situation by turning the pump off for 20
seconds.
