Page 11: Garboard Drain Plug
Maintenance Note: Yamaha recommends replacing the 10- micron fuel filter on new boats after the first 10 hours or 1 month of operation and every 50 hours or every 6 months thereafter. In areas of high humidity where water in fuel supplies is a problem or extensive engine operation occurs, more frequent replacement may be necessary. - Page 12 Bilge Access Bilge The bilge of your Cobia should always be checked before and after a launch. While checking the bilge, note that a small amount of water in the bilge is normal. However, a large amount of water or any signs of fuel or oil requires immediate attention. If such a situation exists, the boat should be taken to a certified marine technician immediately.

If the bilge pump does not come on when the float switch is submerged, attempt to manually turn it on through your switch panel. If the bilge pump comes on and evacuates the water, it is clear that the float switch is not functioning properly. If the bilge pump does not come on via the switch panel, check the breaker panel inside the console to see if a breaker has been tripped. - Page 14 265 Deckdrain System The deckdrain system is equipped with 1 1/2” thru hull fittings through the aft port and starboard hull sides. These fittings have to be installed lower than the drains in the cockpit floor so that gravity will allow the cockpit to drain free of water. This puts these fittings very close to the water line of the hull.
- Page 15 Console/Head Access Located at the top on the inside of the console/head access door is a locking gas shock that aides in opening the door and keeping the door open once the shock is fully extended. With the door fully opened, it can only be closed by releasing the pressure of the metal sleeve on the door side against the shock that is mounted to the console.
- Page 16 The Jabsco Y-Valve is designed to provide flexibility of onboard waste management by diverting waste either to the dockside pump-out fitting or directly overboard where legal to do so. Check local and federal regulations to determine where direct overboard discharge of untreated waste is permitted. Some near shore areas and inland areas are designated as "No- Discharge Zones"...
