Grab Rails; Bow Pulpit W/Anchor Roller And Rope Locker Storage; Drain Plug; Cockpit / Deck Drains - Pro-Line Boats 29 Grand Sport Owner's Manual

Grab Rails

Stainless steel grab rails have been installed to provide safe boarding and navigation on the boat. One is
located at the starboard transom ladder and two more are installed on each side of the forward console
storage seat. Grab rails are also installed around the bait station in and the head area.
Bow Pulpit with Anchor Roller and Rope Locker Storage
We have installed an aluminum anchor roller at the
bow pulpit. The anchor line can be secured inside
the anchor locker and then routed through the
windlass (optional equipment) and anchor roller.
The anchor (not included as standard equipment) is
held on the line beneath the anchor roller. This
allows you to move about the bow area safely
without tripping over the line or anchor.

Drain Plug

Before launching the boat, always make sure that the drain plug has been installed in the fitting on the
transom at the keel. If your boat is being transported, remove the drain plug once the boat is secured on
the trailer so that any excess water can be drained via the fitting. Never remove the drain plug when the
boat is sitting static in the water.
If you live in an area where it snows and you are storing your boat on a lift during the winter, make sure
that you remove the drain plug. When the snow melts, if the float switch for the bilge pump happens to
fail, it could flood the bilge and damage electrical components in the bilge.

Cockpit / Deck Drains

There are two (2) cockpit/deck drains in the aft area of the cockpit that
allow excess water in the cockpit to drain overboard via thru hulls on
each side of the boat. To ensure that there is no blockage in any of
the hoses connected to the drains, it is recommended that you
occasionally run water through each of the cockpit drains and visually
inspect the thru hulls to verify that water flows freely and that there is
no blockage. To trouble shoot, check the hoses for leaks and make
certain that all hose connections are secure.

Dive Platform - Integrated w/Ladder

An integrated Euro style dive platform is built into the fiberglass
construction of the deck and hull and includes a stainless steel ladder
on the starboard side of the transom.
An optional dive ladder can be installed on the port side of the dive
platform for additional boarding capability. When factory installed, this
option includes the installation of an additional grab rail on the port
transom. With the engines tilted down, passengers can move easily
through the transom door and across the large dive platform to the
optional ladder.

Thru Hull Fittings

Thru hull fittings provide overboard drainage. The following photos indicate the source of drainage for
each of the thru hulls.
