Draining the bilge water on water

A small quantity of bilge water will remain in
the engine compartment even after the bilge
water is drained on water. To completely re-
move the bilge water, remove the watercraft
from the water and wipe up any remaining
moisture in the engine compartment with a
dry cloth.
Jet vacuum bilge draining system
While the watercraft is operating, bilge water
in the engine compartment is drawn in by the
vacuum that is generated in the jet pump and
discharged from the watercraft through the jet
thrust nozzle.
To drain the bilge water on water:
Operate the watercraft as straight as possible
and above planing speed for at least 2 min-
utes. NOTICE: Do not run the engine at full
throttle for at least 1 minute after the en-
gine has been restarted. Bilge water in the
engine compartment can splash into the
29
engine, which can result in severe dam-
age.
