Windows

Windshield

The curved glass windshield assembly is molded to fit the console. Please refer to the Service and Care
section of this manual for cleaning recommendations.

Windshield Wiper (Optional)

Depressing the wiper switch to the up or forward position activates the optional wiper. If at all possible
you should try never to run the wipers on a dry windshield. This will dramatically reduce the life of your
wiper blades.

Head Window

To allow for proper ventilation, a window is installed in the
head compartment. The window is hinged at the top, has 2
latches at the bottom and comes equipped with a screen. To
open the window, turn the 2 latches to the horizontal position
and lift the window open. To close the window, rotate the
hinged window back into the closed position and turn the 2
latches back to the vertical position to secure the window.
Latches

Doors and Hatches

Transom Door

The acrylic transom door is located on the starboard aft corner of the boat.
The latch secures the door in the closed position. To open the door, slide
the latch starboard (to the left when standing in the aft cockpit). The
transom door should always remain closed while underway.
See the Service and Care section of this manual for cleaning
recommendations.

Hatches and Latches

The fiberglass deck hatches for the forward and aft bilges can easily withstand the weight of passengers
and gear; just like the rest of the deck surfaces. The twist latches that are installed on these deck
hatches are made of stainless steel. Just lift the handle of the latch from the recessed area of the hatch,
twist it and lift the hatch open. There is a small red dot on one side of the latch. If the red dot is visible
when the hatch is closed, that means that even though the hatch may be closed, the latch is not secure.
To make sure that all hatches are closed and secured before you get underway, lift the handle of the
latch, turn it 180 degrees so that the latch catches. Then return the handle to the recessed area of the
hatch. Once the hatch is secure, the red dot will no longer be visible.
Some hatches are equipped with gas shocks. The gas shocks allow you to easily open and close the
hatches. The gas shocks also hold the hatches in place when they are open.
Additional hatches on the boat provide access to many components. The following photo identifies the
locations of the components that can be accessed via theses hatches.
