Section 3 • Systems & Components Overview & Operation

Reversible Pilot Seat Livewell (Option)

If equipped, the livewell located in the reversible
pilot seat will keep bait fish alive by circulating fresh
seawater through the tank.
ATTENTION
The seacock must be in the open position when
livewell is in use. Running the pump dry may
cause damage to the unit.

Operation

Before operating the system make certain the hull
seacock is in the open position. The seacock can be
accessed through the motorwell hatch.
A flow control valve (Figure 3.8.2) at the livewell
water inlet controls the flow of water into the
livewell. To increase the water flow, turn the valve
counterclockwise. To decrease flow, turn the valve
clockwise.
