6. Bilge. The engine bilge is separate and isolated in order to contain any fuel, oil and
coolant leaks. Check the engine bilge for fluid leaks. Fuel, oil, coolant or seawater in the
bilge indicate a leak. Clean thoroughly and investigate. Small leaks should be monitored
and cleaned regularly. Top up fluids to the required level. Dispose of waste appropriately.
8. Lines. Check the engine bay pipes, cables and lines to ensure no obvious damage
and that they remain clear of hot and rotating parts.

•
Using the key, gently tighten the two swivel latches, located above the lower

•
If necessary, gently slide the lower step fore and aft to aid location of the
letches
•
