Bilge Pump Testing; Drain System; Deck Drains - Bayliner 190 Bowrider Owner's Manual Supplement

Bilge Pump Testing

The bilge pump is vital to the safety of your boat. Test the bilge pump often as follows:
1. Turn On the bilge pump switch at the helm.
2. Make sure that water in the bilge is pumped overboard.
3. If there is water in the bilge and the pump motor is running but not pumping water, inspect the
discharge hose for a kink or collapsed area.
4. If the discharge hose looks okay, check the bilge pump and strainer for clogging debris.

Drain System

Deck Drains

Water on the deck is drained overboard through the deck drains. Keep the deck drains free of debris.
