Be careful when handling and storing treatment
chemicals. Not only are they toxic, but they will
also stain and damage surrounding surface.
It will be necessary to remove the top holding tank of the
portable head to fill with water. Refer to the manufacturer's
literature included in the owner's packet regarding the
use, care and maintenance of the porta potti.

GRAY WATER SYSTEM - OPTIONAL

The gray water system is optional on certain models only.
The water from the galley sink and head sink drains into
a holding tank. The waste level indicator is located in
the head compartment. A pumpout fitting labeled WASTE
but designated for gray water is provided on the star-
board side of the deck. The gray water tank is located
in the engine compartment, center aft. See the specifi-
cation sheet or our website for capacity.
NOTICE
Certain geographical areas have restrictions on
grey water being pumped or drained overboard.
Be sure to check all local, state and federal laws
in the boating area.

LIVEWELL

An aft livewell is available on models with Fish & Ski
package options. The livewell has a capacity of approxi-
mately 7 gallons and comes equipped with an aerator
pump which is operated from a switch on the dash. The
water is aerated as it is pumped into the tank. A hatch is
included for access and the tailpiece regulates the water
level. To drain, remove the tailpiece as shown in Figure
J14.

Be sure the batteries in the boat are properly charged.
Operating the pressure pump from a battery with a low
charge will result in pump cycling. This could lead to
premature pump failure.
Failure to keep the livewell tank vent fitting clean
will cause excessive pressure buildup within the
tank during filling. This can cause water tank
damage.
Winter lay-up service procedures should include a thor-
ough draining of the livewell system. Disconnect all ac-
cessible fittings. Blow out all lines. Be sure the livewell
tubs, aerator pump, and lines are completely dry. Freez-
ing water can cause severe damage to all water system
components.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE

Be sure the batteries in the boat are properly charged.
Operating the pressure pump from a battery with a low
charge will result in pump cycling. This could lead to
premature pump failure.
The decomposition of waste produces a color-
less, odorless gas, methane, that is lighter than
air, combustible, and extremely lethal. Always
provide sufficient ventilation when effecting repairs
to the waste system and allow no odor from the
waste system to go unresolved.
A. Clean Vents and Screens
Periodically, inspect the water tank vents and thru-hull
vent fittings for any dirt, wax, etc. Carefully remove any
obstruction with a pipe cleaner or similar device. Be
sure not to puncture any screens. The stainless steel
vent cap is not removable.
