Openings in the hull and deck

Yamarin boats has a rainwater draining system, which means that rainwater is drained from
the undecked part of the boat when the boat is on the water. The system also functions when
the boat is out of water, provided that the bow is higher than the stern and that the rainwater
drain valve is open. See location of rainwater drin valve from your boatmodels figure.
This drain is meant to be shut at the maximum loading to prevent ingression of water. In other
loading conditions keep the drain open.
There is a bilge pump in the boat's fuel tank compartment, which automatically drains the
bilge (as long as the battery is charged). The pump cannot drain the bilge completely, which
means that there is always some water in the bilge. The bilge pump operates although the
main switch is in OFF position.

WARNING! Learn to use the boat's draining systems in order to be able to use them
correctly in an emergency.
WARNING! Always keep the drainpipe shut when its inboard end is below waterline owing to
heavy load. The shut-off flap on transom only prevents water from entering the
boat when reversing!
