ENGINE EXHAUST 

SYSTEM

The engine exhaust system vents engine exhaust 
gases away from the boat. Inboard engines have 
a muffler and may use water injection as part of 
the exhaust system. Some stern drives have an 
exhaust diverter valve that, when activated, 
routes engine exhaust to thru-transom exhaust 
pipes or down through the propeller hub. Use 
thru-transom exhaust only when your boat is well 
offshore. Never change or modify the standard 
manufactured exhaust system. See the 

Engine 

Operator’s Manual 

for engine exhaust system and 

service information.

ENGINE LUBRICATION 

SYSTEM

Depending on engine type, your boat may feature 
one of several engine lubrication systems. Stern 
drive engines, like automotive engines, use a 
sump system where the engine oil is contained in 
the engine. See the 

Engine Operator’s Manual

 for 

engine oil recommendations and information.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Boats may be equipped with one or two types of 
electrical systems: Direct Current (DC) and 
Alternating Current (AC).

Most boats use a battery-powered direct current 
(DC) system; some boats also use a generator or 
shore-powered alternating current (AC) system. 
Most systems have a main load panel which 
serves as the main distribution panel. 

DC System

Most boats use a 12-volt common negative 
ground DC system. DC systems are usually the 
primary electric supply for lights, pumps, blowers, 
engine starting, etc.

Boats require at least one battery per engine. 
Multiple-battery systems consist of a cranking 
battery for each engine and additional batteries 
that supply auxiliary power to DC electrical 
circuits.

Battery switches control battery power 
distribution and disconnect the batteries from the 
boat’s electrical system. The engine’s charging 
system charges batteries connected to the 
charging system when the engines are running.  

Battery isolators prevent accessory loads and 
other batteries from depleting power from 
charged batteries. Isolators also allow the 
engine’s charging system to isolate the alternator 
charging output and distribute the charge among 
all batteries according to individual need.

The main DC control panel may feature a 
voltmeter, battery test switch, fuses, circuit 
breakers and a master breaker switch. 

WARNING! 

Never reset a breaker that has 

been automatically tripped without first 
identifying and correcting the cause of the 
problem. A fire could result. See Safety 
Precautions at the beginning of this section 
for more details.
