Bilge Pump
The aft bilge pump is located in the aft systems
compartment bilge. It is activated both manually,
by a switch in the helm switch panel and automati-
cally, by an automatic switch built into the pump.
The automatic switch is connected to the batter-
ies and protected by a circuit breaker in the DC
breaker panel. The automatic switch remains ac-
tivated when the battery switches are in the OFF
position and the batteries are connected.

circuit is protected by a circuit breaker in the DC
breaker panel. The bilge pump pumps water to
a thru-hull fitting located above the waterline in
the hull side.
