OS 385

When the boat is out of the water, the bilge

can be drained by a thru-hull drain located in

the transom, near the bottom of the hull. It is

important to check the drain plug regularly to

make sure it is tight.

A loose drain plug will allow sea water to

enter the bilge and cause the boat to sink.

Check the drain plug frequently to make

sure it is secure.

Any oil spilled in the bilge must be thor-

oughly removed and properly disposed of

before operating the bilge pump. The dis-

charge of oil from the bilge is illegal and sub-

ject to fine.

Exterior Drains

Your Pursuit has two scupper drains located

in the rear of the cockpit. The drain rails for

battery compartments, fishboxes and the

mechanical space drain overboard by grav-

ity.

The below floor fishboxes are equipped with

a macerator pump and supplied with drain

plugs. Removing the drain plugs in the fish-

boxes will allow the fishboxes to be pumped

overboard. Insert the drain plug in the fish-

box that empties first to completely drain the

other box. The fishboxes should be flushed

out and cleaned after each use.

The starboard and aft cockpit coolers drain

by gravity overboard. Keep drain plug in

place to maximize cooler efficiency.

The exterior sink drains by gravity to over-

board thru-hulls.

The rope locker drains overboard through a

drain fitting located in the hull side at the bot-

tom of the rope locker. It is important to

inspect the drain frequently to remove any

accumulated debris.

Maintenance

Information supplied with water system com-

ponents, by the equipment manufacturers, is

included with this manual. Refer to the infor-

mation for additional operation and service

information.

Fresh Water System

Perform these routine maintenance proce-

dures to maintain your fresh water system:

• Remove filter screens from faucet spouts

and eliminate any accumulation of

debris. A debris build-up can cause the

pump to cycle excessively.

• Check and clean the fresh water system

strainer located on the intake line near

the pump at least annually.

• Remove the lid on the shower sump

assembly located under the mid-berth,

clean debris from the sump and flush

with clean water, activate the float switch

to test the pump and spray the pumps

and metal components with a metal pro-

tector periodically.

! NOTICE

The federal water pollution control act

prohibits the discharge of oil or oily

waste into or upon the navigable

waters of the United States or the

waters of the contiguous zone if such

discharge causes a film or sheen

upon, or a discoloration of the surface

of the water, or causes a sludge or

emulsion beneath the surface of the

water. Violators are subject to a pen-

alty of $10,000.

! CAUTION

Turn the fresh water system switch

"OFF" when leaving the boat unat-

tended or when the fresh water sys-

tem is not in use.
