Chapter 9: Lights

Care and Maintenance

All of the lights installed on your boat are of top quality, but you should be aware that failure may
periodically occur for a variety of reasons:
• There may be a blown fuse - replace the fuse.
• The bulb may be burned out - carry spare replacement bulbs, making sure the wattage is correct.
• A wire may be damaged or may have come loose - repair as required.
• The bulb base may be corroded - clean the base and coat it with non-conductive electrical lubricant.

Interior and Exterior Lights

• Be conservative in the use of battery power.
• Prolonged use of cabin interior lights (overnight) WILL result in a
drained battery.
• The lights are powered by your boat's 12-Volt DC system.
• The battery switch must be turned On for the lights to work.

Navigation Lights

Avoid the storage of gear where it would block navigation lights from view.
Running lights are legally required to show boat direction and right-of-way
at night.
Read the navigation light section in the Sport Boat Owner's Manual.
