2013 World Cat 320EC Owners Manual
Ball valves (seacocks) are installed on the water intake for the livewell and raw water systems. The seacocks must be
in the open position for these systems to work. When open, the handle will be parallel to the valve. In the closed
position the handle is perpendicular to the valve (see picture below). World Cat recommends that the seacocks remain
in the closed position when not in use, or when the boat is left unattended to prevent the vessel from taking on water
due to a plumbing failure.

10.1.6 Livewell System
The 320EC has a 45 gallon livewell standard. which is equipped with a dual purpose 1100 GPH livewell pump. The
pump is located in the aft bilge compartment and can be reached through the inspection port in port motorwell. The
wiring is secured along the aft main bulkhead and must be disconnected prior to removing the pump. The livewell
pump draws water through the strainer mounted on the inboard side of the port sponson. A seacock is installed
between the pickup and the pump to allow you to seal the system between use, or in the event of a plumbing failure.
To operate the livewell, first verify that the seacock is open. Then install the livewell drain plug. When you have
completed these steps, engage the livewell pump using the switch on the dash instrument panel. Water will fill the
tank until it is level with the overflow, which evacuates water through the hullside. When you have finished using the
livewell, remove the drain plug to allow the water to drain overboard. The livewell light is controlled by the cockpit
light switch. If you have chosen the second livewell option, the starboard bait prep sink is be replaced with a second
livewell which works identical to the port system.
NOTICE
While underway, leaving your livewell seacock open could result in inadvertently filling your
livewell. To prevent this, close the seacock when the pump is not in operation.
NOTICE
Operating the engines in reverse can cause ventilation near the livewell intake, causing the pump to
airlock. To prevent this, turn the pumps “OFF” prior to any continuous or high speed reverse
operation. If your pump becomes air locked, turning the pump “OFF” for 15 to 30 seconds will
correct the problem.
10.1.7 R
aw Water System
The raw water pump is located in the aft rigging compartment on the starboard side, and can be accessed through the
hatch located on the vertical wall behind the aft jumpseat. The pump and wiring are mounted on the rigging wall at
the back of the compartment. The raw water pump is connected to the intake strainer located on the inboard side of
the starboard sponson. The seacock connected to this strainer must be open for the system to work. Similar to the
freshwater pump, the raw water pump is controlled by a switch on the dash instrument panel. The pump will cycle on
