HOWER
To operate the cockpit shower the water pressure switch located on the accessory panel must
be in the “on” position. Open the flap and pull the shower wand from the recessed deck fitting
located on the aft port gunwale. Depress the button on the back of the wand to spray water. To
reinstall the shower wand gently feed the hose down through the deck and replace the flap on the
fitting.

OMPASS
The compass is located at the helm station in direct view of the operator when navigating the
boat. Following the instructions in the compass manual included in the “Owners Packet” will help
you make compensation adjustments to the compass.

EACOCKS
Ball valve seacocks are installed on the inlet thru hulls for the livewell and washdown sys-
tems. It is necessary for the seacocks to be in the open position to operate the livewell and wash-
down systems. The open position is identified by the orientation of the handle. If the handle is in
line or parallel to the body of the valve, the seacock is in the open position. If the handle is perpen-
dicular to the body of the valve the seacock is in the closed position. Remote seacock arms are
installed on the seacock handles. These arms extend into the area beneath the starboard aft seat.
Pull on these rods to open the seacock, and push to close.

ATER
To operate the livewell, first open the seacock located on the starboard side of the aft rigging
compartment. Place the livewell switch at the helm in the “ON” position and plug the drain fitting
in the bottom of the livewell. Water will enter through an inlet near the top of the livewell. The
water will rise to a depth even with the strainer on the overflow fitting and drain overboard.
N O T I C E
All seacocks should be in the closed position if not in use or if the boat is
unattended to prevent the taking on of water if a plumbing component fails.
N O T I C E
If the 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 option is not in use.
N O T I C E
Under certain conditions placing the outboard engine(s) in reverse will ventilate the water
under the boat and create an airlock in the livewell pump. To prevent an airlock, turn the
livewell “OFF” prior to any high RPM or constant reverse operation. If the livewell pump
becomes airlocked, correct this situation by turning the pump “OFF” for 20 seconds.
