Chapter 6: Plumbing
Bilge Pump
Your boat has a bilge pump for pumping water out of the bilge.
Discharge of oil, oil waste, or fuel into navigable waters is prohibited by law.
Violators are subject to legal action by the local authorities.
•
The pump's built-in float switch turns On the bilge pump if bilge water rises above a preset level.
Small amounts of water in the bilge are normal.
•
You can also turn On the bilge pump using the switch at the helm.
•
The bilge pump is wired directly to the battery. Unless the battery is dead, the bilge pump should
work even when your boat is unattended.
