Just like the aft bilge pump, the forward bilge pump is wired automatic to the starboard battery and has a manual override located at the switch panel on the console.
The circuit breakers are installed next to the battery switch panel and are labeled aft bilge, forward bilge, trim tabs, stereo and accessory. Place all the switches in the off position. Turn the ignition key on (both ignition keys for a twin engine application) and ensure that the engine will not turn over.
When you are underway in low visibility conditions, you should have the Nav. Lts. switch in the up or forward position. This will activate the navigation lights, as well as your anchor/all around light. When you are anchored or in low visibility conditions, you should turn on the anchor/all around light.
Two push in switches for the spreader lights and courtesy light are located on the base of the courtesy light. To operate the courtesy light - Press the switch labeled courtesy once to turn on the white courtesy light.

care and maintenance of their product. When in doubt, always defer to the engine manufacturer’s instructions and/or recommendations. Fuel / Oil Leaks The fuel tank is vented overboard and the vent should be inspected for obstructions regularly.

Operation and Performance Trim / Tilt The power trim system allows the operator to raise and lower the motors throughout an infinite number of settings between its upper and lower limits. There is a trim setting that will yield maximum speed, stability or maneuverability for every throttle setting.
Propellers If your Pro-Line was ordered with a factory installed engine, it will have a propeller that has been performance tested to provide the best all-round performance for your engine/hull combination at sea level. In some situations, it may be desirable to re-prop your Pro-Line to enhance the desired performance needs for your area.
Check for fuel, oil and water leaks. If any leaks are found, shut down the engines and make the necessary repairs before continuing on with your voyage. Follow the break-in procedures as recommended by the engine manufacturer for your engines.
Trailering and Launching Selecting a Trailer Choose the proper trailer for your boat and make sure the trailer you use is certified. Consult your state authority for state regulations pertaining to trailering a boat. More damage can be done to a boat by the stress of road travel than by normal water operation.
Page 51
Too much weight on the rear of the trailer will cause the trailer to "fishtail" and may reduce traction or even lift the rear wheels of the tow vehicle off the ground. The safety chains are attached crisscrossing under the coupler to the frame of the tow vehicle.
Make certain that water from rain or cleaning has been removed from the boat. Water weighs approximately eight pounds per gallon and can add weight that will shift with the movement of the trailer. Backing a Trailer Practice backing with a trailer before you get into a confined launch site. Get accustomed to using the trailer in an open area.
Launching Keep the rear wheels of the tow vehicle out of the water. This will generally keep the exhaust pipes out of the water. If the exhaust pipes become immersed in the water, the engine may stall. Set the parking brake and place tire chocks behind the rear wheels. ...
Service and Care To enjoy trouble free use of your Pro-Line, follow the recommended procedures and instructions relating to the service and care of your boat. Failure to follow proper maintenance practices will result in shorter life of your equipment and may void your warranty. Much of the installed equipment on your Pro-Line is warranted separately.
This is done so that the epoxy coat will properly adhere to the hull, and when done correctly, will not void the hull warranty. Pro-Line Boats does not recommend using an etching primer in lieu of sanding the bottom.
Fuel Water Separators If fuel water separators are installed on your boat, the “spin on” filter cartridges should be renewed every season at a minimum. Fuel tanks that are not kept full accumulate water faster due to condensation. Therefore, filter cartridges may need to be replaced more often depending upon usage and conditions or if motors begin to run rough.
Stainless Steel Stainless steel is used for bow rails and deck fittings on your Pro-Line. Stainless steel is not completely free from corrosion attack. It is NOT stain or rust proof. When used in contact with chloride salts, sulfides or other rusting metals, stainless will discolor, rust or even corrode. The degree of surface oxidation is directly affected by local atmosphere and saltwater concentrations.
Transom Door Clean the transom door using a soft cloth, warm water and a mild detergent. Windows The frames of the cabin hatches are made of cast or extruded aluminum. The lenses/windows of the windows (cabin hatch and cabin portholes) are made of Lexan or tough acrylic. Clean the frames and windows with a mild soap, lukewarm water and a soft cloth.
Curtain Package and Windscreen Canvas One of the best ways to keep Sunbrella brand fabrics looking good and to delay the need for deep or vigorous cleanings is to hose fabrics off on a monthly basis with clear water. This practice will help prevent dirt from becoming deeply imbedded in the fabric and eliminate the need for more frequent vigorous cleanings.
Vinyl Interior Vinyl - Cabin Headliner and Cabin Bolsters Clean periodically to maintain the appearance of the vinyl and to prevent the build-up of dirt and contaminants. Any stain, spill or soiling should be cleaned promptly to prevent the possibility of permanent staining.
Single Burner Butane Stove Body/base of the stove: Allow the stove to cool completely and remove the butane canister before attempting to clean the unit. Wash the outside of the unit, the drip pan and the canister cover with warm water.
Check wiring, terminal blocks and plugs for loose connections and corrosion. Verify switch and equipment operation. Check line condition. Inspect anchor and rope. Clean out any debris from bilge and cockpit. Flush water systems. Install hull drain plug.
